Ep 197: The Number One Question I get asked about Coaching and Training

  • Summary

  • Have you ever wondered how you can help others when your own life isn't perfect? This is the number one question I frequently encounter in my journey as a coach and trainer. It's a query that resonates with many of my students too. Is there an expectation to be the epitome of perfection to make a difference as a coach? In this episode of The Coaching Hub Podcast I explore the myth of perfection in coaching and emphasise the importance of authenticity, vulnerability, and human connection, which truly define impactful coaching. Join me as we explore why being imperfect is not only okay but beneficial in the coaching space.

    Here are the Highlights:

    00:00 Introduction

    07:15 Great coaches walk alongside clients without judgment.

    08:40 Embrace your experiences and struggles; they enable you to empathise and support others effectively.

    10:15 So stop the need to think that you have to have some kind of picture perfect life to help others.
