How do you support a client who has “lost their mojo?”

In this coaching conversation, Elena does so by cultivating self-compassion, engaging with curiosity, and gently challenging assumptions. You will also hear the use of trauma-informed strategies that demonstrate how a coach can support a client through an emotional experience without overstepping into the role of therapist.

Listen in for a masterclass on holding space, remaining unattached to outcomes, and trusting the process.

Note: This is the second part of the coaching conversation heard in episode 162. If you haven’t already listened to that episode, you’ll want to start there.

Episode Reflection Questions:

• When is the last time you named the uncomfortable emotions that were present for you? What can you do to accept the fact that they are present? How can you support your coachees to do the same?
• One of the questions Elena used to expand her coachee’s thinking was, “What is possible for you to be curious about in this situation?” What are additional questions you might ask?
• What “a ha” moments did you have listening to this conversation? What are you still curious about?
