Empowering Coaches Through Emotional Resiliency and Nervous System Mastery
Coaches today face a unique challenge in balancing their passion for helping others with the pressures of managing a business and personal life. Emotional resiliency and nervous system regulation are vital in achieving sustainable success as a business coach and in your personal life.
Understanding the Importance of Emotional Resiliency in Your Nervous SystemEmotional resiliency is more than just a buzzword; it is the foundation of effective coaching and personal development. Coaches often operate under the assumption that sheer willpower and a positive mindset can overcome any obstacle. However, emotional resiliency involves a deeper connection to oneself, recognizing and managing emotions, and building the capacity to navigate highs and lows gracefully and efficiently.
The Journey from Law to CoachingMichelle transitioned from practicing law to becoming a master coach, a journey deeply influenced by her experience with burnout during the pandemic. Her story echoes the experiences of many coaches who find themselves overworked and seeking a more balanced, impactful approach to their careers. Michelle realized that serving others while neglecting her emotional and physical well-being was not sustainable. This pivotal moment led her to explore life coaching and develop a passion for helping moms regulate their nervous systems.
The Role of the Nervous System in CoachingThe nervous system is crucial to how individuals experience and respond to stress. Learning to regulate the nervous system can transform personal and professional lives. Coaches and their clients often operate from a place of survival brainâa state where stress and fear dominate decision-making processes. By focusing on regulating the nervous system, individuals can create a sense of safety, leading to more effective communication, better decision-making, and overall well-being.
Mirror Neurons and Emotional ConnectionMirror neurons are responsible for the subconscious imitative behavior seen in humans. For example, when a person smiles or nods, those observing are likely to mimic these actions without conscious thought. This phenomenon is particularly significant in coaching and parenting, where the emotional states of coaches and parents are mirrored and internalized by clients and children.
About MichelleHey Friend, I'm Michelle. Law professor turned master life coach and podcaster with big dreams, growing kiddos, and the world's sweetest husband. I'm passionate about teaching you how to regulate your nervous system. My Mission is to support women in overcoming anxiety, overwhelm, and burnout. So, kick that mom guilt to the curb. Say goodbye to the exhaustion and overwhelm. Learn how to unlock the stress cycle. This is about a better, healthier you.

How your coaching program can increase results, sales, and profits.
Have you ever noticed that the coaching industry is like the wild-wild West?!
There are no rules, and no regulations, and things can get a little out of hand to be honest. In fact, just last week I saw a coachâs sales pitch that made me sick to my stomach. The promise? To heal deep emotional wounds in 90 days or less, discouraging people from doing EMDR and other therapeutic practices that are evidence-based.
Listen, coaches, this DOES NOT need to be discouraging. We can see this as an opportunity to rise and make the coaching industry better. Educate yourself, Learn all you can. Be a safe and ethical coach. There are good reasons that Master Coach Training (and every coach training and program that I offer) is holistic. This means we are taking into account the âwhole personâ view of your client. When you can understand more about the nervous system, emotional processing, and safe cognitive coaching practices- you can be incredibly effective and hold your head high.
Todayâs post is focused on how your unique coaching program can bring a little structure to this wild-wild west. Your program can distinguish you from the work a therapist or other mental health professional does. It can also bring clarity to your potential clients as to how you help them. Many coaches have a more âopenâ process and struggle to define it with a program. If this applies to you, you might be surprised at how a structured approach can be more open than you realize, while creating phenomenal results.
What is a coaching program? Why is it important? How do you get started with creating it?
In one of my signature offers, Create Your Killer Program (CYKP), I walk my clients through the process step-by-step of creating a unique program. Creating a program is much simpler than you may realize, but when so much is unknown, it can be overwhelming. Letâs talk about 5 reasons you need a clear coaching program.
Most people donât know what coaching is. âCoachingâ is a catch-all term for various types of services. Consulting, business advice, emotional processing, and mindset work; are just a few categories within the coaching umbrella. While itâs becoming more popular, you must assume that most people donât know what you do, and (more importantly), they donât know what it means in practical terms for them. When people feel uncertain, they wonât buy. A clear, specific program with a strong marketing offer will communicate to people what results they will get from working with you. It will take what is vague and intangible, to something much more concrete. In CYKP my clients create a clear program, but also a clear marketing statement for it - it makes all the difference!
When you sell coaching, you are selling nothing. Few people are looking for coaching, many people are looking for help in solving their problems. When you have a clear coaching program set, it helps you define and refine how you speak to your ideal clients. With no clear program outlined, many coaches find themselves stumbling over their words to explain to people what they do. This breeds insecurity, imposter syndrome, and a pile of regret and embarrassment after a conversation. A clear program gives you words to speak and a plan that your clients can understand.
People want change and it IS possible. The fields of...

The Benefit of Client Testimonials: Capturing and Leveraging Client Results
Client testimonials are a key component to coaching success. In the ever-evolving world of coaching, creating an impactful and successful practice requires more than just passion. It involves a strategic approach to capturing and leveraging client results. This conversation delves into actionable insights on how coaches can enhance their practice by focusing on client outcomes and continuous improvement.
Embracing the Power of Client ResultsSuccessful coaching hinges on helping clients achieve tangible results. By actively showcasing these results, coaches can attract more clients and reinforce the value of their services. This process begins with a deep belief in the coaching methodologies employed. It's crucial to constantly develop and test frameworks to ensure they deliver the promised outcomes.
The Importance of Client TestimonialsSome coaches might feel uncomfortable asking for testimonials, but it's a vital step in building credibility. Establishing a formal process for requesting feedback can make this easier. Coaches can gather detailed and authentic client testimonials by embedding feedback requests within the coaching timeline, particularly during high-momentum phases.
Highlighting client successes through testimonials, especially those acquired informally and authentically, can add significant weight to a coach's reputation. Real-time grabs from client interactions or direct feedback provide credible, relatable proof of impact.
Overcoming Common PitfallsA common misstep for new coaches is seeing the conclusion of a coaching container as the end of the relationship. Continuous engagement and nurturing relationships post-container are crucial. This includes discussing future work and potential renewals throughout the coaching period. By doing so, coaches can transform what might feel like an awkward ending into a seamless continuation of service.
Building a Framework for SuccessCreating a structured coaching framework is essential. Original and proprietary methodologies set coaches apart in a crowded market. Regularly testing and refining these frameworks with real clients ensures they remain relevant and effective.
Furthermore, sharing results within and outside the coaching community via newsletters, social media, and podcasts builds trust and showcases the coach's ability to drive transformations. Just as shoppers rely on Amazon reviews, potential clients look for social proof before committing.

Sheâs the host of the top-ranked âBest Damn Coachâ Podcast and the creator of the Framework Builder Lab and Best Damn Coach community.

Welcome to a deep dive into the world of emotional resilience and coaching.
The ability to navigate emotions effectively is the difference between thriving in relationships, overcoming setbacks in business, and fostering deep transformations in clients' lives.
Understanding Emotional ResilienceEmotional resilience is crucial for showing up in the best way in relationships and avoiding the rollercoaster of emotions that can strain connections. It empowers individuals to handle challenges in business, moving forward confidently instead of quitting when faced with setbacks. For coaches, it ensures the delivery of transformative changes that enhance clients' well-being across various aspects of their lives.
The Importance of Emotional Resilience in Coaching ProgramsEmotional resilience is a core component woven through various training programs, whether it's basic coach certification and leadership training or advanced holistic master coach training. As life presents significant challenges, understanding the interconnection between thought patterns, behaviors, and emotions becomes imperative.
Strategies to Build Emotional Resilience1. Recognizing and Naming Emotions: Notice emotions, write them down, and vocalize them. This practice helps increase emotional capacity.
2. Utilizing EFT/Tapping: Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), or tapping, aids in managing emotions, allowing individuals to build emotional tolerance gradually.
3. Incremental Growth: Building emotional resilience is a gradual process. It involves committing to small steps daily to expand emotional muscles, supported by effective tools and guidance.
Case Study: Transformative Power of Emotional ResilienceOne client struggled with the emotional reactivity of her child, reflecting her lack of emotional support as a child. By increasing her emotional capacity, she found more patience and understanding, leading to improved relationships at home and enhanced focus in her business. This led to a profound sense of peace, reducing stress levels in both her personal and professional life.
Resources for Further LearningA recommended resource is the book "Running on Empty" by Dr. Jonice Webb, which addresses emotional neglect and provides insights into managing one's emotional world.
Commit to Building Emotional ResilienceEnhancing emotional capacity is essential for effective leadership, coaching, and personal development. Commit to small, consistent actions to develop resilience, fostering the ability to handle emotions and create lasting change. Emotional resilience is the foundation of effective, compassionate, and impactful personal and professional life. By integrating these strategies and committing to continuous growth, the journey toward resilience begins today.

A champion in the realm of women entrepreneurs is committed to uplifting and empowering women in business.
To successfully connect with your ready-to-buy audience, women entrepreneurs must have confidence and understand sales techniques and buyer psychology. In this episode, we explore how to do just that so you can remove limitations and build the business of your dreams.
The Importance of Confidence and Self-BeliefMany women entrepreneurs face self-doubt and undervalue their capabilities. Fostering self-belief and confidence is necessary for business success. When female entrepreneurs believe in their skills and business models, it naturally translates to better performance and higher revenue.
How to Shift the Perception of Sales as Women EntrepreneursSales often carry a stigma, especially among women. Many view sales negatively, associating it with sleazy tactics and desperation. However, it's crucial to reframe this mindset. Women are naturally gifted with empathy, connection-building, and understanding â all traits that make them exceptional at sales. When sales are viewed as an act of service and helping others get what they desire, it transforms the entire approach. The right mindset towards sales can turn it from a daunting task into an enjoyable and rewarding experience. Selling shouldn't be about desperation but confidently showcasing value and offering solutions that meet potential clients' needs.
Understanding and Speaking the Buyer's LanguageOne key component of meaningful sales is understanding and effectively communicating with the target audience. Market research is invaluable in identifying potential clients' most pressing needs and desires. By utilizing the specific language and terminologies that resonate with the target audience, entrepreneurs can craft compelling messages that speak directly to those ready to invest.
Practical Steps for Women Entrepreneurs to Identify and Attract Ready BuyersWomen Entrepreneurs must fine-tune their messaging to attract clients prepared to invest in their offerings.
This involves:
Market Research: Conducting thorough market research to understand the buyer's psyche, challenges, and aspirations.Targeted Messaging: Focusing messages on specific outcomes and solutions rather than just problems. This shifts the clientele from those who need commiseration to those ready to take actionable steps toward their goals.Clear Call to Actions: Providing clear instructions on what actions to take if they are ready to invest. This eliminates ambiguity and guides potential clients through the sales funnel smoothly.
Embracing Authenticity and Unapologetic SellingEntrepreneurs are encouraged to embrace their authentic selves and show up fully in their business. This might involve blocking non-supportive followers, including friends and family, from social media to ensure an unfiltered and confident presence. Authenticity in marketing and sales builds trust and resonates more powerfully with potential clients.

Family dynamics influence so much of what we do and how we process different situations
We all have family dynamics and family relationships, whether the family we create for ourselves or some other version of family, and those family relationships significantly impact individual growth and societal contributions. Coaching has a profound effect on families and can transform not only the lives of parents but also the lives of children and, by extension, the broader community.
The Role of Coaching in Family DynamicsFor many of us, there are sensitivities surrounding family dynamics and family relationships. This episode aims to bring a sense of peace and understanding to those who may struggle with family dynamics, highlighting that perfection in family relationships is not the goal, but attention and effort are crucial.
Steph, who specializes in coaching for moms and daughters, shares her experiences and the immense value coaching has brought to her personal and professional life. The mother-daughter relationship, marked by many ups and downs, benefits immensely from coaching, which helps navigate the complexities of parenting through different life stages.
The Power of Coaching for ParentsCoaching provides parents with invaluable tools to manage their relationships with their children better. For instance, coaching helps parents set aside their own struggles and focus on their children's needs, fostering a nurturing environment. Given the myriad of emotions, such as guilt, shame, and joy, that parents experience while raising their children, this kind of environment is vital.
Every child has their own distinct personality, which emphasizes the importance of personalized approaches in parenting. Coaching offers strategies and tools that help parents connect with their children on a deeper level. Knowing how to regulate one's own emotions and nervous system before engaging with children can significantly improve parent-child interactions.
Whole Person Coaching ApproachThe holistic, or whole person, approach to coaching looks beyond surface-level issues and dives into components like cognitive entry points, emotional sets, nervous system understanding, and action-oriented coaching. By addressing these pillars, coaches can better support their clients in multiple dimensions of their lives, leading to more profound and lasting changes.
This approach is particularly effective for parents, equipping them with better strategies to handle real-life challenges and maintain emotional balance. Learning and practicing these techniques can enhance your ability to be present and supportive of your children, fostering a stable and nurturing family environment.

Coaching Moms to navigate parenting when your kid is not like you is Meg's Specialty
Parenting isn't a one-size-fits-all journey. Each child is unique, and often, parents find themselves navigating the challenge of parenting a child who is nothing like them. Coaching for moms to navigate this territory and address these differences is an invaluable option.
Building a Safe Community for your coaching clientsMeg is one of Molly's coaching clients and is so grateful for the supportive community Molly has created. Meg brings this community, which provides a "soft landing" where individuals can grow without external pressures, into her coaching for moms. It is important to create a safe space where clients feel relaxed and confident so that they can have true growth.
Understanding Parenting ChallengesThere are specific challenges moms face when their children are very different from them. There are common worries among moms, such as maintaining a good relationship and having enough skills to support their children effectively. Moms care so much for their kids and want the best for them, often making them feel pressured to "fix" their kids in the interest of their well-being.
Embracing Acceptance and GentlenessMeg advocates for a gentle approach, encouraging moms to accept their feelings and gain a better understanding of why they feel certain ways about certain behaviors from their children. When moms can accept how they are feeling and create space to reflect on the situation, it can significantly reduce the impulse to control or change their children's actions.
The Impact of SupportWhen Moms are able to slow down and reflect on their more challenging interactions with their children, they may realize different pressures or expectations they are putting on their children to fit a certain mold. By stepping back and allowing their children to be themselves, moms can foster a more supportive and encouraging environment, leading to a stronger parent-child relationship.
Coaching Moms: Tapping Into CalmnessIn her coaching practice, Meg offers free weekly tapping sessions for moms. These 15-minute sessions aim to help moms relax and take the edge off, especially during the summer when parenting can be particularly challenging. Sign up for this wonderful opportunity here.
More strategies for supporting Moms
Join Meg's CommunityMeg is a mom of 3 kids within 4 years, wife, certified life coach, fitness enthusiast, and is passionate about helping other moms show up as the parent & woman they want to be. She focuses on helping moms navigate the unique journeys of all children, no matter their abilities or needs.
Meg invites listeners to a one-on-one starting point session, where she helps moms better understand their situation and develop a plan for improving their relationship with their children. She emphasizes the value of coaching and the profound impact it can have not just on the moms but on their entire family.

Supercharge Your Coaching Skills
To advance your coaching skills and truly excel as a coach, you must view and understand your clients as whole people. Integrating cognitive, emotional, and nervous system awareness methods allows you to adjust your approach fluidly based on your clients' needs. This adaptability ensures smoother sessions and enables you to guide clients intuitively and effectively.
Why Advanced Coaching Skills MatterAs coaches, we are passionate about providing exceptional experiences for our clients. For those dedicated to transformational change, safety, and ethics, enhancing your coaching skills is paramount. This workshop series is designed for you.
The Essentials of Advanced Coaching Skills: 4 Fundamentals discussed in the IntensiveAdvanced Cognitive CoachingMy foundational training was through the Life Coach School, where I mastered the cognitive coaching model. Cognitive approaches are incredibly effective yet not holistic. My experience with cognitive coaching showed that it could only go so far. Cognitive coaching is excellent for mindset work, but the emotional and physical aspects that also affect our clients need to be addressed.
Emotion-Focused ModalitiesEmotions and past traumas are stored in the body, affecting our clients deeply. Solely relying on cognitive approaches might not only be ineffective but detrimental. Embracing emotion-focused modalities ensures that we address these emotional blocks. Combining cognitive strategies with emotion-focused ones can supercharge your ability to help clients create lasting change.
Understanding the Nervous SystemNervous system awareness is critical for advancing your coaching skills. Your clients might experience fight-or-flight responses in coaching sessions or in their daily lives. Knowing how to help your clients understand and manage their nervous systems can vastly improve the effectiveness of your coaching. If a client continually has a stress response in specific situations, your interventions must address this underlying activation to facilitate true change.
Action-Focused StrategiesFinally, many coaching programs emphasize action plans. While structured actions are beneficial, they often fail when clients have underlying emotional blocks or conflicting beliefs. A comprehensive understanding of your client's emotional states and beliefs allows you to tailor action plans that align with their unique situation, removing friction and fostering real progress.

The Myth of Social Media as an necessity
A common misconception is that businesses must be active on social media to succeed. Robyn shared that many multi-million dollar businesses thrive without a robust social media presence, focusing instead on building a strong foundation. Building a solid foundation is invaluable to your business success.
Building a Solid Foundation using SEO StrategiesA solid business foundation begins with a personal brand. By being distinct and clear about who you are and the results you can deliver, you set yourself up for sustainable business success.
A business foundation needs
an optimized websitean engaged email listUnlike what you post on social media platforms, you have complete control over these elements, which are up to the platform's discretion.
Clarity and Client ConnectionWhen you want to attract your ideal or soulmate clients, you must be extremely clear on what you provide and who you are there to help. Robyn describes these as soulmate clients - clients with whom you share a deep and meaningful connection, leading to better results and long-term relationships. Unlike the superficial connections often formed on social media, soulmate clients are those who truly understand your value and are aligned with your mission.
Authenticity and DifferentiationBeing on social media can often lead to comparison and even trying to mimic others' successful strategies. You must avoid mimicking others to be authentic and connect with your soulmate clients. Your authenticity will attract your soulmate clients and differentiate you from others in your field. It also helps eliminate the feelings of doubt and imposter syndrome that often come from comparing oneself to others on social media.
Trust and Mutual RespectIn discussing client relationships, Robyn emphasized the significance of mutual trust and respect. It's not enough for clients to trust you; you must also trust them to take your advice and implement your strategies. This mutual respect fosters a collaborative environment where you and your clients can thrive.
SEO Strategies: A Tip from RobynEnsure that you have a photograph of yourself on your homepage, on your About page, and sprinkled throughout your website. On those images, include alt text. Alt text is for nonsighted people to understand what is on an image, and it is search engine optimized. You can include your name, title, and whoever is in your niche. Add those keywords and key phrases for your images because that will help Google see who you are, what you do, and how you do it, and then show you to more people.

If you are a coach committed to helping your clients, you must also be committed to personal growth. As you continue to grow, you learn new skills and modalities to add to your coaching toolbox, which will benefit you and your clients.
How can you add to your coaching toolbox?Building trust with your clients and adding your uniqueness to their coaching experience is why they came to see you. Don't overlook your personal gifts and how impactful those are to your soulmate clients.
Expanding and shifting your skillsets to best serve your clientsPart of adding to your coaching toolbox and being an impactful coach is being in tune with your client's needs. Checking in with your clients and looking for what needs to be addressed so you can bridge that gap and meet their needs is invaluable to your effectiveness as a coach. You are in this field because you believe in what you do, and you not only care about your clients but are devoted to their success.
Remember to stay in tune with your clients, look for what is needed, and then find a way to bridge that gap, whether that means searching for a new modality or shifting your perspective and adding to what is already in place.
Teach what you believe in and have experienced.One of the things Brenda deeply believes in is to teach what you know. When working with clients, she looks at them and her own journey and growth and asks herself, How can I learn and grow to find the right tool if I do not have the tools to support this particular client?
Part of delivering the best service for your clients is your investment in their personal growth and being committed to growing so that you can help find the right tools to support them along their journey.
Adding self-care tools to your coaching toolboxMost entrepreneurs have learned to work hard and hustle to get their businesses off the ground. However, it is just as important to learn self-care habits to prevent overexhaustion or burnout. Working hard is wonderful, but not when you do it at your own expense.
Learning to listen to your body and when you need rest and honoring that is an invaluable skill. There is always a list of one million things that need to be doneâthat list never endsâbut it does not all need to be fixed today. Honor when you need to rest, and you, too, just might find that you are able to have your best thinking and coaching once you are rested.
Instead of asking, have I worked hard enough to rest? Ask, have I rested enough to work hard? Apply the tools you offer to clients to yourself first, and make sure you take time to rest.
