What Experienced Coaches Know

What experienced coaches know can’t always be found in a textbook—it’s earned through real-world practice, client conversations that don’t go as planned, and the inner work of staying grounded when things get messy. In this episode of The Craft of Coaching podcast, we explore the essential mindset shifts and deeper truths that experienced coaches understand—and why new coaches often miss them.

If you’re just getting started in your coaching journey, this episode offers a behind-the-scenes look at what actually changes as you become a more seasoned coach. From embracing silence instead of rushing to fix, to building confidence through exposure instead of perfection, we’re talking through the unspoken wisdom that only time and practice can teach.

You’ll learn why emotional resilience is just as important as coaching skills, how your presence is more powerful than any tool, and why being useful matters more than being liked. Whether you’re brand-new or building momentum, this episode will help you trust the process—and yourself.

Tune in and discover what experienced coaches know that can help you grow faster, coach deeper, and build a practice that truly reflects your values.
