The Masterful Coach Podcast: Coaching skill mastery, business strategy, and ideal life creation!

No matter what kind of coaching we do, we’re going to encounter clients who’ve experienced some form of trauma. There are simply varying degrees and types. As we do, we may find we need a deeper understanding and skill set around being a trauma informed coach. And we may even find we need to delve into trauma healing for ourselves. Since this is such a sensitive and important topic, I wanted to interview Lindsay Poelman, a specialized Trauma Coach who trains other coaches to become Trauma-Informed.. As Lindsay and I talked, we discussed the stress around starting a business, blending the cognitive and the intuitive, and returning to yourself. Lindsay also shared about getting to safety, redirecting from external to internal, and the benefits of being trauma informed.  “We can move through the emotions that maybe aren’t as pleasant. Learning the ability to access that and move through those can really access those ones we all dream of having. And you can experience joy and ecstasy from a settled place.” – Lindsay Poelman What You’ll Learn Stress of starting a business Blending cognitive and intuitive Returning to yourself Getting to safety Redirecting from external to internal Being trauma informed Honoring yourself betters society Contact Info and Recommended Resources FREE Webinar Masterclass with Molly:  How to Create a Killer Program for your Clients that Creates Results Monday, August 7 at 11 CT Don’t you love the idea of leading your business with service and results?

Connect with Lindsay Poelman Lindsay Poelman is a specialized Trauma Coach who trains other coaches to become Trauma-Informed. A graduate of The Life Coach School, she also holds certifications and associations in the areas of Sexual Addiction Betrayal Trauma, Faith-Based Coaching, Feminist Coaching and APSATS (The Association of Partners of Sex Addicts Trauma Specialists).  Lindsay’s journey began upon experiencing her own Betrayal Trauma 7 years ago—while simultaneously supporting her husband through his recovery from non-functioning anxiety and depression, betrayal trauma, and in his recovery as a victim of childhood sexual abuse. Through it all, she became so passionate about the resources she found to support herself that she left her career in public and derivative accounting to become a life coach.  After seeking additional training and working with women in trauma for over 5 years, she now trains coaches to do the same—so that they too can provide the deep and safe healing possible for clients across the board who have experienced trauma. She runs an Advanced Relationship Trauma Certification Program for Coaches with a curriculum she put together with a Trauma Therapist. Lindsay has a vision of the whole world being trauma-informed in order to better support personal healing, clients, abuse victims seeking support from families, clergy, and friends for help after being victimized.  She currently lives in the South of France with her husband and three children. Her husband used to work as a dentist, and is now a life coach for men who want to stop looking at porn. She loves the sun, the sea, French cuisine, being outside in nature, Mary Magdalene, traveling, and more. She sometimes says that if she came back in another life she'd be a tour guide because she loves exploring with people she loves.

You’re in the business of helping people and changing lives. But you can’t help anyone if they don’t know what you can do for them, so you need clarity in what you’ll deliver. But before you can have clarity in what you’ll deliver and the results clients can expect, you need to have a well-organized program. After all, if your program isn’t organized in a way that is effective, none of it is any good. That’s why in this Business Foundations additional episode, I address the power of an effective coaching program. Not only will you have the joy of helping people when your program (that is, what you’ll deliver to a client) is absolutely crystal clear and working smoothly, you’ll also have the comfort of easier marketing. When you’re completely sold on and confident in what you’re offering, you can’t help but sell it. “Having an amazing program that is clear, that is powerful, that is effective, will be worth every bit of time, energy and money spent on making it happen.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn Joy of providing exactly what your clients need A Program vs An Offer Program (clarity for you): Deliverables: videos, worksheets, coaching sessions, similar Results: actual outcomes and goals Offer (clarity for your client): Articulating deliverables Articulating expected results and goals Clarity in your program and offer will assuage: Inconfidence Fear Insuring client work works Meet them where they are Articulate personalized results Customize accountability or progress tracking Clear structures Confidence and competence in your results Contact Info and Recommended Resources FREE Webinar Masterclass:  How to Create a Killer Program for your Clients that Creates Results Monday, August 7 at 11 CT Don’t you love the idea of leading your business with service and results?

As entrepreneurs, it can be quite difficult for us to take the right kind of rest. Countless things vie for our time and attention. And even when we do manage some downtime, we can be plagued by feelings of guilt,  restlessness or even fear. But what if taking the right kind of rest could actually increase your productivity, creativity and ability to problem solve? With these questions in mind, I interviewed Alyson Caffrey, a small business Operations Strategist, the  Bestselling Author of The Sabbatical Method, and the founder of Operations Agency. First, Alyson and I discussed how women, especially, feel we have to justify rest. Then Alyson related several powerful truths, including acclimating to ascend, building a business to thrive without you, channeling a sabbatical personality, and acting rather than reacting. “If we’re building a business that can’t function without us, then we might need to reconcile with the fact that we could be building a personal life that can.” – Alyson Caffrey What You’ll Learn 30,000 foot view Acclimate to ascend (repair to build) Thriving without you Taking a break before you crumble Sabbatical personalities Standardizing to serve clients more Action not reaction Contact Info and Recommended Resources I highly recommend you listen to every episode of my Foundations for Your Coaching Business series: mollyclaire.com/the-masterful-coach.

Follow the show: Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts | Spotify | iHeart Radio | Amazon Music | RSS As coaches, we need to be okay with leaning into both what we know and what we’re not yet comfortable with. In fact, at first our coaching journeys often start out somewhat self-serving. We learn because we’re passionate about a particular aspect of life, typically one we’ve personally experienced. And when we’re able to couple that with an existing area of our genius, magical things happen.  To discuss this and more, I interviewed Dan Purcell. Along with his wife, Emily, Dan is the founder of Get Your Marriage On!, a marriage intimacy improvement coaching company and Virgo Development, a software development company. While we talked, Dan discussed pushing through discomfort, leveraging your genius, and no longer trading hours for dollars. He also shared his experience with finding a coaching model, creating a membership program, building customized client software, and more. I found this all very exciting because making things simpler for your clients (and yourself) is powerful.   “Success is always on the other side of your discomfort… There is always going to be a big unknown… embrace it.” – Dan Purcell What You’ll Learn From blushing to brave Leveraging your genius Finding the right business model Trading hours for dollars Building customized software Addressing pain points Allowing it to come together Contact Info and Recommended Resources I highly recommend you listen to every episode of my Foundations for Your Coaching Business series: mollyclaire.com/the-masterful-coach.

As coaches, there are always additional challenges when it comes to physical pain and trauma responses. We want to help our clients feel relief and breakthrough in everything they are working through, yet many of us aren’t trained in this area and each of us face our own difficulties. To talk about your nervous system and coaching, I interviewed Body and Mind Life Coach, Betsy Jensen. I first found Betsy when I had a client who raved about the results she’d been experiencing working with Betsy. During our discussion, Betsy shared about how we are empowered to take control, understanding the nervous system, ingrained trauma or protective response, and flight, fight, freeze or fawn (the protective state). She also opened up about her own chronic conditions, her journey away from pain, and the mindset shifts she undertook to achieve her freedom. “It’s getting to that calmer state of the nervous system. And then your body knows how to heal. And then you know how to have conversations with people… [And] you can hold space for someone else. You can be that safe place.” – Betsy Jensen What You’ll Learn Chronic conditions and psychosomatic symptoms Empowered to take control Understanding the nervous system Ingrained trauma or protective responses Awareness of automatic (subconscious) responses Connecting with the nervous system Be gentle to yourself Simple ways to regulate yourself Contact Info and Recommended Resources I highly recommend you listen to every episode of my Foundations for Your Coaching Business series: mollyclaire.com/the-masterful-coach. Connect with Betsy Jensen Betsy is a Body and Mind Life Coach, helping people heal from chronic pain through nervous system regulation, and the latest neuroscience. As a former Physical Therapist, she had been working with people in pain for over two decades but her own health struggles brought her to the mind-body approach. Now through coaching, she is helping people calm their nervous system, rewire their brain, and heal their chronic pain – not just manage it. To help accomplish this, Betsy offers Somatic Coaching, her Alignment Academy, and hosts her own podcast, Unstoppable Body and Mind.

Finding the main bottleneck, road block or slow down in your business can sometimes be difficult. You may feel like numerous things are going wrong. And when it feels all-encompassing, you may find yourself paralyzed by inaction or frantically trying numerous solutions. But what if you could unravel things, pinpoint and deal with your main issue? What might change for you? What might that unlock for moving your business forward? To talk about how to see and solve your biz problem, I chatted with Justine McDonald, founder of Goal Chasers, speaker, and author of the Mama's Got Goals planner.

The dream of making that first $10k may seem out of reach. You may be wondering how to even start toward attaining that goal. Or you may even question why you should try for such a large goal? Perhaps you have already attained it but now you’re wondering how to scale even more. No matter where you are on your business journey, I want to offer an acceleration method to help you to that $10k level and beyond. Before we get to how, it’s important to solidify why it matters. The reason is simple, yet profound: this is part of your foundation. There are inherent benefits in achieving $10k and beyond that exceed just the obvious benefits of more income. So let’s talk about this. “It’s much more than money.

For many of us, bookkeeping and accounting–money in general–can bring up a wide range of strong emotions. You might feel intimidation, uncertainty, discomfort or even anxiety. It can be overwhelming enough to handle your personal finances but now you also have your business finances. To talk about this critical foundation, I interviewed Ashley Ford, owner of Pretty Penny, LLC for this sixth episode in my Foundations for Your Coaching Business series. As an expert in small business accounting, Ashley shared about limiting beliefs, missing tax deductions, how understanding your numbers get easier, and ways to romanticize your finances. I hope this discussion brings you some peace in the area of your financial foundation. “We’re running a marathon, not a sprint. We’re in this for the long game. Which means you don’t have to have everything figured out from the beginning, you have a lot of time to continue to evolve, to continue to learn, and to continue to get better at the different parts of your business. And finances is no different.” – Ashley Ford What You’ll Learn Limiting beliefs: Traditional narrative told to women about finances Just be you to attract your people Missing tax deductions Not a sprint Understanding your numbers gets easier Shake those nerves and do it now Romanticize your finances Contact Info and Recommended Resources Are you a mission-centered Life Coach ready to build your profitable + purposeful business?

You don’t have to have all the skills perfect to get started in your business. In fact, you really should be moving your business forward while continuing to acquire skills. So if you don’t have everything quite there yet, or even if you haven’t yet figured everything out, it’s really okay. For this fifth episode of my Foundations for Your Coaching Business series, I focused on outlining a method for auditing your skills. It will help identify where you’re currently at in skill mastery, what skills you need to learn, and how to prioritize those skills. Through this method, I hope you’ll gain confidence as well as direction on what to put your time and money into first, then second, and so on. By knowing better where to concentrate, you can build your business with less stress and uncertainty. “When you wonder if you'll really do it in this business, how you’ll do it, and if this will work, you can know that the solution lies in the awareness of the skills you need to build.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn Brave making a list  Awareness Confidence Ever-changing How to prioritize Where you are now Current business needs Long term desires Two examples Identifying skills and addressing roadblocks How to move through your list One step at a time, but some simultaneously Question 1: Effective or not?
