Webinar with Dr. Pat – The Power of Self Disclosure for Coaching Clients
June 28th at 11 AM Pacific / 2 PM Eastern
Dr. Pat will present ideas from his newest book Getting Naked: On Emotional Transparency at the Right Time, the Right Place, and with the Right Person.
Citing research and some case studies, Dr. Pat will reveal how coaches can elicit more ‘naked conversations” from their clients, which also may be personal narratives that are factors in life or business challenges.
All coaching is eventually about meaning-making, and increase self-awareness for the client. Emotional nakedness and courageous vulnerability get at what may be hidden in the client’s personal storage and keeps them from being fully functioning. These can be things that may be shameful, guilt producing, or embarrassing. They may also be dreams that have been given up on or aspirations that have been unrealized. What’s in our shadow is revealed in the light.
What resides in our personal shadow can be brought into the light with open, honest and heartfelt coaching conversations.
Many clients may have unfinished business from their past, unresolved hurts or dreams that were broken in relationships, work history, or other personal wounds. We all do!!! So how can coaching create a sacred space for naked conversations that assist clients to take back the energy that has been hooked to hiding these negative thoughts, old hurts, or limiting beliefs.
Come hear how you can get the important truths under the clients wants and desires. What may be holding them back can be revealed and brought into the light when you the coach is the committed and trusted listener.
