The other client, David Watson, is a successful consultant who wants to grow and make a bigger impact. The one thing we have in common is that we all want to find our ideal clients.

S22EP03: Be Remarkable

A client of mine runs a multi-million-dollar business. She’s respected by everyone in her field, yet she once said to me, “I could do this with my eyes closed. I want something more.” And then she went on, “I’m not lonely, but I’m very alone. There’s no one else I dare share this with but you.” One challenge of being a high performer is that you can be surrounded by people whose only mission is to say “yes” to you, who want to make you feel good, or say what they think you need to hear. Oh this ...

As a coach, one of the gifts you can give extraordinary high performers is to create the safety for them to really speak their truth.

The team at WBECS invited me to give a presentation about coaching high performers. Well, I don't 'teach' and I don't do 'presentations', I told them. But I do coach. We're in. They said. So that's what I did. ...
