The Mindful Coach Podcast

著者: Brett Hill
  • サマリー

  • Mindful Coaching is not just a skill; it's a movement. In a world obsessed with "getting more done," many feel the urgent need to help people in a more profound way. And many of us have found that the more mindful we are in our life and work, the better or experience of life and the quality of our work. We make better decisions and inspire deeper connections in ourselves and others because we are committed to being more deeply connected with ourselves and the world. In becoming a professional coach and coach trainer, I experienced (and still do!) a great deal of hype and predatory marketing targeting coaches. So, I created The Mindful Coach Association. A safe haven and community of mindful professionals where we can connect, collaborate, and support each other in our learning, lives, and success. Free from the constant drone of mastermind pitches and promises of instant wealth. As the founder of the association, I talk to a lot of coaches. One day, after listening to a particularly inspired coach doing great work with the LGBTQ+ community and also hearing from another working with immigrant populations to help them adapt to a new culture, I felt like wow - "People really need to hear about this work." But there is no venue for coaches who are doing amazing, important work but aren't publishing books, doing podcasts, TV shows, selling out masterminds, and "crushing 7 figures." And if you take the many thousands of inspired, courageous coaches doing great work with challenged populations - this is a mighty force indeed - but one that has no voice. The Mindful Coach Podcast was created to give a voice to those incredible coaches whose work is unheard and unheralded. Now you can hear their stories of great work that is going on in the world, work that you may not otherwise encounter -and be inspired as I have by the collective goodness that's blossoming in the world. And you are a part of this work! Beyond these stories, the podcast is a gateway to a vibrant community - The Mindful Coach Association (https://mindfulcoachassociation.com) Here, you'll have the opportunity to engage in enriching conversations with our guests and fellow mindful professionals during our weekly meetings. It's a safe, collaborative space where individual actions culminate into a powerful, unified force. No upsells or pitches. Moreover, this podcast is designed to aid in the growth of your practice. We introduce you to exceptional services and cutting-edge technologies, including AI, to enhance your productivity and success. Additionally, a coach is always growing their skills so you'll gain invaluable insights and practical tips from experts in new and powerful coaching modalities.

  • The Intuitive Coach: Presence, Connection, and Transformation
    2024/10/31

    Developing intuition is an essential resource for coaches, allowing them to connect with clients on a deeper level. This episode emphasizes the importance of being present and mindful, not only for oneself but also in fostering meaningful relationships with those being coached. Brett Hill explores how heightened awareness of one's own inner state can lead to valuable insights and impressions about clients, which may not be immediately obvious through their words alone. By cultivating an authentic curiosity and being open to these intuitive nudges, coaches can enhance their ability to support clients effectively. Join Brett as he shares practical tips on integrating intuition into coaching and highlights the transformative power of genuine connection in the helping professions.

    The Foundation of Mindful Coaching

    At the core of mindful coaching lies the ability to be fully present with our clients. This means:

    • • Cultivating awareness of our own internal state
    • • Regulating our emotions and energy in the moment
    • • Bringing our full attention to the client's experience

    By honing these skills, we create a space of deep connection and understanding that sets the stage for transformative coaching experiences.

    Tapping into Intuitive Insights

    When we're truly present and attuned to our clients, something remarkable can happen. We may begin to receive intuitive impressions or hunches about the client that go beyond what they've explicitly shared. These insights might include:

    • • Curiosities about their background or experiences
    • • Impressions about their relationships or interests
    • • Subtle nuances in their communication style

    The Art of Offering Intuitive Impressions

    Sharing these intuitive insights requires finesse and sensitivity. Here are some guidelines:

    • 1. Frame your insights as gentle curiosities rather than definitive statements
    • 2. Be prepared to adjust if your impression doesn't resonate
    • 3. Use intuitive insights to deepen rapport and understanding, not as a party trick

    Developing Your Intuitive Abilities

    Cultivating your intuition is a practice that can enhance your coaching effectiveness. Consider these strategies:

    • • Regular mindfulness practice to sharpen your awareness
    • • Paying attention to subtle cues and impressions in daily life
    • • Creating low-stakes opportunities to test your intuitive hunches

    "When I am in this more spacious place, I not only have the capacity to connect and feel and sense and process my impressions and observations about another person, but something interesting happens."

    By embracing intuition as a valuable tool in our coaching practice, we open ourselves to a richer, more nuanced understanding of our clients. This can lead to more profound insights, stronger rapport, and ultimately, more impactful coaching outcomes.

    Remember, intuition is not about being psychic or always right. It's about tuning into the subtle information available in the coaching relationship and using it wisely to serve our clients better.

    Join the Mindful Coach Community

    If you're inspired to explore mindful coaching further, consider joining the Mindful Coach Association. Connect with like-minded professionals committed to bringing more goodness into the world through mindful practices.

    The conversation centers on the profound connection between mindfulness, coaching, and the development of intuition. Brett Hill articulates the significance of being present and aware in the coaching relationship, emphasizing that successful coaching transcends mere techniques; it requires a genuine connection with the client. He explores how mindfulness can serve as a foundation for building this...
