Quotes from the episode:
- 5:53: “It can release a whole lot of pressure, when we can let go of that pressure to be the expert and have to show up, you know, to diagnose, prescribe, and treat like a doctor would, because we’re not trained as doctors.” -Michelle Maclean
- 6:55: “It’s not about what you say, or having the information… It’s also about who you’re being in the session. How are you facilitating progress and asking the right questions and being curious and holding space and not thinking “I need to have all the answers,” because then that takes you away from actually fully being able to help the client. ” -Hailey Rowe
- 7:58: “As coaches, you know, our clients have the answers, right? So we really honor within them that they have the answers. They’re the ones who know what’s best for their health and well being.” -Michelle Maclean
- 6:52: “We have to be lovingly detached to the outcomes, right? We love our clients, we want them to be successful, we want them to succeed, but it’s on them to take the action. ” -Michelle Maclean
