Ever had a client who makes you feel like you just can't do anything right? 

In this episode, we tackle the uncomfortable but inevitable situation every practitioner faces: the angry or overly demanding client. Learn why this form of client resistance is actually a normal part of the coaching journey and doesn't mean you've failed as a practitioner.

Discover four powerful strategies to transform these challenging moments into opportunities for deeper client work and professional growth. From managing your own emotional triggers to setting clear boundaries, these practical techniques will help you navigate difficult client dynamics with confidence and compassion.

Episode Highlights:

• Why client criticism and demands are often forms of resistance to growth, not reflections of your skills

• How to separate legitimate feedback from projection and resistance patterns

• When and how to objectively assess if you've missed the mark in your deliverables

• The importance of lovingly addressing your client's resistance patterns

• The importance of setting clear boundaries from the beginning

• Real-life examples of both effective and ineffective responses to client criticism
