Would you like to press pause on the endless cycle of hurry and worry? If yes, then tune into this extremely important podcast. Because we all have unconscious beliefs, unspoken fears, and hidden habits we so easily rely on that feed our fast-paced culture. Whether the disembodied voices you hear are from others or yourself… past or present… it’s time to silence them. 

  • Stop mentally rehearsing all your self-sabotaging thoughts so you can start moving ahead with the things you intend to do.

  • Shed light on unseen factors and the specific mindsets that convince you that you can’t accomplish your goals and find out how you can reach your greatest potential.

  • Learn more about “hurry sickness” (yes: it’s a real thing!) and how you can heal from the harrowing effects of time urgency.

Without exception, there’s one common denominator at the core of every single coaching session you hold. It’s the most essential part of that coaching session, and it’s something you have complete control over. What is it? It’s you! Your use of self, your awareness of yourself, and your self-management as a child of God, a person, and a coach.

In this episode, we dive into a deep exploration of who you are, how you show up as a coach, and how you differentiate yourself from your client in a way that’s beneficial to you and to them.

Tune in to hear:

  • How to maintain a sense of autonomy instead of reactivity.

  • The beautiful ways that coaching is a reflection of our Trinitarian God.

  • Using the competencies as a tool for spiritual love.
