061 Conversation Structures in Coaching

In today’s episode we are talking about how you can structure your coaching conversations. One of the reasons we’re talking about this today is that when people start coaching they want to learn tools and structures and as you develop as a coach you might start to think about what you can and can’t say to your clients in your sessions.

We talk about:

What makes a coaching conversation different from a normal conversation?
What structures are available to you?
The unlearning process when practising coaching conversations as an established coach
Can intuition play a role in coaching conversations
What is the difference between coaching the story and coaching the person
How to have solution and future focussed conversations

Coaching conversations develop over time and having a structure ensures that you and your client have a container that feels safe. We would love to hear what conversation structures you use and how you keep the discipline of holding your coaching conversations in the place they need to be.

063 The Coaching Crowd Turns 1

We are so excited that today's episode marks 1 year of the Coaching Crowd podcast. This is such a special episode to us. We want to thank you, our listeners, for helping us to grow the podcast and for making this so much fun to be part of. The idea for the Coaching Crowd podcast started a number of years ago when we used to record our ling conversations with each other and we knew how good a podcast would be. We never believed that we would be here, 63 episodes later, celebrating one year of podcasting.

The podcast is one way that we can support those of you who want to explore the idea of being a coach or those who want to deepen your coaching practice and we love hearing how much you receive from the podcast. We can't wait to go into our second year of podcasting to bring you more of what you want and for us to enjoy the process even more.

We thank you so much for your support.
