Life coaching originated from sports coaching. It's all about helping individuals and teams reach their full potential.

I think of a masterful coach like a positive mother or father, the loving, caring person who easily sees the potential of others and doesn't judge mistakes.

Ted Lasso from the TV series comes to mind. That character was far from perfect, right? And he had a gift for helping people grow into themselves.

Who do you need to become to be a winner in this field of coaching?

This year, a client enrolled into my VIP program who came from college coaching. Since our first conversation, I see him embodying "the right stuff." I admire how he always leaves a positive impression.

I asked him to be a guest on this episode, and he humbly and enthusiastically said Yes. Let's talk together about the right stuff and how you can develop more of it.

So far in your coaching business you might be simply trying to convince any client to hook on … to want coaching and be willing to invest in a certain number of sessions up front.

Convincing clients they want coaching can be painful process. I tried that for years and wasted a lot of energy.

The problem is that offering coaching session packages doesn’t create a strong context for why your prospect would want to enroll.

It was only when I targeted a narrow audience and found out directly from them what’s been in the way of achieving their top goals and turned that into an exciting offer that I began seeing great results from clients and earning well.

When you customize an offer for your audience into a Signature Program it creates a powerful context for why they want to hire you.

Developing this high-ticket customized program requires you to think like your ideal client … not like a coach.

Working with coaching clients is a huge privilege and responsibility. If managed well, it can be a relationship of mutual trust and respect — a healthy container for transformation.

But human beings are complex, each with their own trauma, triggers, wants and needs. Put two people together and it can get uncomfortable.

Managing the coach/client relationship is one of those trial by fire things. But you know me, I want to uncover this stuff that could trip you up!

The first thing to understand is that when you charge highly for coaching, clients are more committed and engaged in their own transformation and success. On the other hand, when clients pay little for your services, they are generally more difficult to serve and it can get edgy.

So do yourself a favor and charge more.

Let’s look at 5 indications that something is off in the coaching relationship so you can repair it.
