30. Holding Space

Do ever feel uncomfortable when you experience moments of silence
in a coaching session?


You might feel pressure to ask the "right" question or use the
"perfect" tool... and you ultimately freeze like a deer in
headlights.


A coaching session does not need to always move forward. There is
tremendous value in their being still during a session.


In fact, saying LESS in a coaching session will give your client
MORE value. The moments of silence will often lead to your
client's biggest breakthroughs.


When your client is experiencing discomfort, you may be tempted
to help them resolve or fix this discomfort right away. You may
want to hurry them to feel better.


But, what if what they actually need is to be STILL with their
discomfort? What if there is nothing wrong with their discomfort?
What if it's exactly what they need in order to grow?


In this episode, I share how to Hold Space with your clients so
they can tap into their inner genius during moments of silence.
