LET S ARRIVE HERE
A BIT ABOUT ME: Left my career in television to become a coach Was working full time in my business, building great momentum. Started to feel drained again like I had in my career. Took a massive step back.
INTROVERTS, HSP, EMPATH INTROVERT: Gains energy from time spent alone, processes internally (about 50% of the population) HIGHLY SENSITIVE PERSON(HSP): Sensitive nervous system, sensitive to sound/light/pain/etc (about 15-20% of population) EMPATH: Heightened awareness of the pain/emotions of others. May feel them as their own.
WHY COACHING? Coaching and working intensively with other people has many elements that appeal to introverts, HSPs, and empaths: Deep one on one connection with another person or small group; It s a skill that our heightened awareness, curiosity, and sensitivity do very well with, observing what others might not; Having a softer energy is very comforting to others; Online coaching in particular allows us to work from home; We are sensitive to the emotions of others, creating a safe and sacred space for them
CHALLENGES OF BEING A HIGHLY SENSITIVE COACH The overwhelm of juggling a business with jobs, families, kids. Putting yourself out there to promote your business and build your network Working with clients and trying not to take on their shit as your own Worrying about your clients in between sessions and hoping they are doing okay, doing the work, etc Questioning your skills as a coach, if you re any good, if your client is getting anything out of the session
CHALLENGES OF BEING A HIGHLY SENSITIVE COACH Not being present in sessions because so much is going on in your head Overthinking EVERY idea and plan, and then procrastinating on taking action Seeing your friends on social media sharing their work and seemingly doing so well while you re feeling just overwhelmed and exhausted Being concerned about adding to the noise of social media and the internet and wanting to run away and hide from it all Feeling upset when your program, coaching, posts don t get any response
CHALLENGES OF BEING A HIGHLY SENSITIVE COACH Feeling freaked out when it feels like TOO many people are seeing and responding to it Worrying about your business getting too big and feeling drained Dreading working with clients, hitting publish on anything Desperately wanting to jump ahead to passive income hoping that you ll have more energy then and not feel so exhausted
TODAY S FOCUS: Having energy to build your business; Having energy to work with your clients; Having energy to expand and sustain your business
HAVING ENERGY TO BUILD YOUR BUSINESS
HAVE YOU DISCOVERED WHAT YOU RE WORKING TOWARDS?
UNTIL YOU KNOW THE WHAT AND WHY, IT S DIFFICULT TO STAY CONNECTED + NOT GET DISTRACTED BY OTHERS
THIS CAN ALSO MEAN: Feeling overwhelmed from all your responsibilities; Getting distracted with other ideas or what others are doing; Losing sight of your own plans and getting caught up in look externally for answers; Feeling drained, exhausted, or just plan fed up with your business.
WHAT S GOING ON FOR YOU RIGHT NOW? (WHAT S YOUR TRUTH?)
THE TRUTH? You know what you need to do; You know what you re capable of (even if it s deep, deep down); You wouldn t be doing this if you didn t feel truly called to do it; You have everything you need just waiting for you to accept, acknowledge, and tap into it.
What s your truth? (What are you not willing to admit or what s really stopping you right now?)
LET S GET CENTERED
WHAT DID YOU NOTICE?
HAVING ENERGY TO WORK WITH CLIENTS
WHAT S WORKING WITH CLIENTS LIKE FOR YOU? Do you feel energised and excited? Do you give yourself time before and after the session? Do you know how many people you can work with at a time? Do you know the kinds of people you want to work with and work best with?
WHAT S WORKING WITH CLIENTS LIKE FOR YOU? Do you know how you can help them? Do you feel boundaried and strong with your clients? Do you know that you aren t responsible for what they get out of sessions with you and what they do between sessions? Do you listen and engage with them? Or do you worry about what to say when they ve finished talking?
HOW CAN YOU BE THE BEST COACH YOU CAN BE? Give yourself time before and after sessions; Prepare and plan for your session; Create rituals to open the space up and close it; Step into the session and trust what comes; Send your client off with the true belief that they are capable to continue on without you (or your energy)
WHO DO YOU WANT TO WORK WITH? (AND WHO *DON T* YOU WANT TO WORK WITH?)
At first you ll want to work with lots of different people, mostly to discover who your IDEAL clients really are. And then you learn to say no.
WHAT S YOUR RITUAL?
HAVING ENERGY TO EXPAND AND GROW
ALMOST EVERY HIGHLY SENSITIVE/INTROVERTED COACH: Is looking for a way to create passive income; Is worried about having the energy to work with clients and how many they need to work with to make the money they need; Is worried about burn out and often feels overwhelmed; Is hoping to be seen and heard without BEING seen and heard.
WHAT IF YOU COULD TRUST YOUR INFINITE ENERGY?
WHAT ARE YOU HOLDING BACK FROM? Do you procrastinate and numb out? Do you take one step forward and two steps back? Do you set unrealistic expectations for yourself? Do you tell yourself lies? Do you convince yourself that you re giving it your all?
HOW DOES IT FEEL IN YOUR BODY TO BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF?
THE BIGGEST THING I SEE WITH HIGHLY SENSITIVE COACHES Waiting. Waiting to be perfect, to be skilled, to be fixed/ healed before getting started. Watching while friends and peers go for it and telling yourself that you aren t ready or good enough yet. Having a million ideas and getting stuck. Feeling alone, disconnected, as though you re the only one with no idea what you re doing.
WHAT S IT GOING TO TAKE TO BELIEVE IT S POSSIBLE FOR YOU?
EXPAND
WHAT S NEXT?
BABY STEPS Make it SO easy. Take all the pressure off. Be realistic. Do something right now. Get accountable. Do what YOU need to do.
WHAT S YOUR RIGHT NOW PLAN? The hardest thing for introverts is sometimes just getting started. Try not to think about it too much (easier said than done, right?) Start at the goal or the idea and work backwards. Break it down into the smallest steps and then start with the easiest stuff first.
