Renee Blasky is the founder and CEO of The LEAP Network, a company that coaches clients to change limiting beliefs and get out of their own way. She is a world-traveling adventurer who knows a thing or two about taking risks and stepping out of her comfort zone, both of which are at the heart of vulnerability.

In this episode, full of incredible stories, powerful lessons and expert advice, Melinda and Renee talk candidly about the true strength and courage inherent in being vulnerable. Coaches don’t need to always appear professional or stoic to be effective. In fact, that’s a great way to stay stuck personally and professionally. There is so much power in genuine connection, and we are most successful when we lead by example.

In this episode we discuss:

What is the true meaning of vulnerability?
How and when to be vulnerable with your clients, and how much is too much.
The three levels of fear and how to help clients identify and overcome them.
The dangers of negative self-talk and limiting beliefs.
Overcoming the past with appreciation and acceptance, using the “5 periods of time” method
Why vulnerability is necessary for true transformation.
Tips for coaching clients to identify fears that are keeping them stuck.
The power of sharing and being vulnerable with clients.
How to think, not panic - why people can handle more than they often believe they can.

“What connection have I missed with this client of mine, because I was too afraid to show vulnerability?” – Renee Blasky
