207. How to Get Out of Your Head and Coach Powerfully

Have you ever felt frozen by all the “what ifs” that swirl around
in your mind as a coach? What if I mess up? What if the client
doesn’t get results? What if I don’t know what to say? In this
episode, we’re diving into a rarely talked about
struggle—coaching paralysis.


These are the thoughts that creep in before, during, or after a
session... or even before you fully step into coaching. And
here’s the kicker: these aren’t your clients’ thoughts. These are
yours.


We’ll explore how these doubts often stem from a lack of
self-trust and a desire to control the unpredictable. While it's
normal to want to be prepared, constantly playing out worst-case
scenarios in your mind can drain your energy and block your
growth.


The good news? You don’t have to banish these thoughts—you can
reframe them. I’ll walk you through how to shift your mindset so
your “what ifs” start working for you instead of against you.
What if you trusted that silence could be powerful? What if you
believed that your presence alone could spark transformation?


This episode will help you recognize that true confidence doesn’t
come from having all the answers—it comes from trusting yourself
to meet any moment with curiosity and care.


Whether you’re a brand new coach or someone building your
business, you’ll learn how to get unstuck, step back into your
power, and coach with more ease and clarity. Because when you
stop letting fear run the show, you make space for real impact.
