Coaching from Shame: Deal with your own sh*t first

​Hey entrepreneurs. Having your shame, guilt and emotions all over the place is messing with the relationships you have with your clients. You say you want to build trust and create community but you are really causing harm to your audience and yourself. Clients are refusing to engage with coaches who are using abusive tactics such as bullying and are looking for safe spaces. Wanna know why your Facebook Group is stagnant? It’s time to deal with your outdated coaching practices.

To be a coach is to need to do a lot of inner work. It is to be open to doing that work. When we ignore our own needs, we show up sounding like motivational posters and not real people. Fancy, snappy slogans help launder our own shame. These trappings help us seem confident and well put together. They allow us to stay in our comfort zones where we pass along our shame to those whom we are supposed to serve. 
 

We are serious about changing the way this coaching industry is done. 

“Do you wanna stop harming yourself as a coach or entrepreneur? Are you ready to stop harming your clients? There is a different way of being. “

In this episode you will learn:

• • ​What should I do about my unpublished drafts in TikTok or my blog?

  • Isn’t it time to do something different to engage your private coaching community? 
  • We all have hidden business sins or mistakes we don’t want others to know about.
