Here's the Recap:

Welcome to Season 1, Episode 9 of Master Coach Mindset™ with Rhonda Britten. In today's episode, I discuss...

One of my biggest pet peeves is hearing a coach label their client a: ‘resistant client’ or ‘difficult client.’ That isn’t even possible once you understand how fear works and the power of innocence.

When you see through the eyes of innocence, you will soon believe that your client is never purposely sabotaging themselves or being resistant, or hurting their chances for success. They're not purposely wrecking their lives or making bad choices.

That’s why today we are focusing on line nine of the Master Coach Manifesto:
"A Master Coach speaks to their client's innocence, creating safety and deep healing, allowing their client to trust themselves again."

I now have a new framework to look at my coaching, and that new perspective brings me a new opportunity to connect more fully with my clients. It's given me an opportunity to hold a mirror up to my own coaching and say, "Oh,well there are some gaps here," and I can fill those in with what I've learned from Rhonda and the tools that she has provided me are really a good fit for things that I didn't even think about but I know that I can more fully serve my clients with them.
