Become A Trauma Informed Coach
Are you a coach who's afraid to use the "T" word (Trauma) on your calls? Or you that trauma is a thing, that it happens, but not much more (because you’re not sure if you want to know more)? If any of this resonates (or you just want to know more about how, as coaches, we can support clients carrying trauma), this podcast is for you. Bringing our lack of understanding into the light is necessary to support ourselves—and clients—during calls. Now coach, I am NOT HERE to induce fear or paralysis in your coaching—bleh. I am here to help you 1) see what you’re potentially not seeing, 2) reaffirm 10000% that you absolutely can do something about it, and 3) reinforce the notion that we all start somewhere (it’s ok to be where you’re at right now)! There is SO MUCH you can do to support clients carrying trauma—as well as understanding the limitations we have as coaches—so that they can receive the care they are in search of. I believe that being Trauma-Informed is an Essential Standard of Care for every coach in the coaching industry. I have a vision of every coach being Trauma-Informed.

The Coach's Compass: Understanding and Applying the Window of Tolerance
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you ever been in conversations with people that you couldn’t be fully present for, and you're not sure why? Or vice versa? What about as a coach, have you had calls with your clients where it feels like you aren't getting through or connecting and you're not sure why? If so, you’re in good company. Today I’m speaking about a concept called the Window of Tolerance. Understanding this will support you in becoming more aware of your own optimal space for learning and using mindset work to your advantage. It will also help you see when to drop mindset models that aren't helping you or your clients.
In this episode you’ll learn:
- What the window of tolerance is,
- What it looks like to be above or below your window of tolerance,
- And what you can do to get out of that hyper or hypo arousal state;
All so that you can meet your clients where they're at to achieve the results they're looking for. And don't forget about you! Understanding this for yourself is paramount in creating the sustainable dream life you're deserving of.
