Seeing Through Solidity & Limitation - Transformational Coaching

In this episode, Piers chats with corporate coach Dominic Scaffidi. Dominic and Piers did three episodes together back in 2020 exploring 'What is behind the magic of transformational coaching' and now they get back together to see what has been evolving in their own groundings and work.

This episode explores what is truly transformative about coaching from this understanding of Before Psychology and Quality of Mind. It is a deep and sometimes technical conversation about the nature of consciousness, self-limitation, and the essence of being.

They explore the idea of achieving versus allowing, noting that individuals can only experience the expansive nature of their being by dropping their resistance. They discuss how people often look for solutions outside themselves, forgetting that their real identity is infinite. The conversation also includes examples from business to illustrate their points effectively.

This Episode Covers:

• The only challenge we ever have in business is our own mind
• The appearance of solidity and limitation. There is nothing solid really to be dealing with
• A simple business example of how we innocently look in the wrong place
• The confusion between how it appears success is created and what is actually going on 
• The utilitarian usefulness of definitions
• The desire for more to overcome the illusion of scarcity
• The nuance between allowing and revealing
• The limitlessness to what is available
• Why people really come to coaching, what we are all seeking
