It's not about gadgets, worksheets, or even the words we say. The most powerful coaching tools are not tangible at all. They're experiential. They shape how your client feels, how they think, and how they transform. Today, I'll share five of the most important coaching tools I've discovered in decades of training and practice. These aren't just methods. They're actually biblical, Spirit-led ways of partnering with God to help someone change from the inside out. And once you learn to use them, you will never see coaching or your clients the same way again. Welcome to the Christian Coaching School podcast. I'm your host, Doctor Leelo Bush. I'm a master coach, author, curriculum creator and the number one authority on Spirit-led Christian coaching. I've trained tens of thousands worldwide since 2003, and if you are ready to uplevel your skills, find greater fulfillment, and employ the most powerful coaching available to mankind, let's go. Welcome back to the Christian Coaching School podcast. I'm your host, Doctor Leelo Bush, and today we're diving into a powerful topic. We're talking about the five best coaching tools every coach needs. Now, these aren't just nice-to-have tools. These are the tools that will make or break your effectiveness as a coach—the very things that transform conversations into breakthroughs. And as you'll hear, each one of these tools is also grounded in God's Word. Be sure to stay with me until the end, because I'll be announcing our highlight podcast review and Amazon gift card winner. And if you'd like a chance to win in the future, make sure you leave us a review wherever you're listening. All right, let's dive in. One of the first and most important skills a coach must learn is holding space. This means you show up fully present for your client, giving them your complete attention without judgment, without rushing to fix them, and without making it about you. Practically, this looks like open body language, steady eye contact, and silence that isn't uncomfortable, but supportive. It's letting your client know through your presence—whether it's in person, on the phone, or on a Zoom call—that you are safe here. You can share what's really on your heart and I will not condemn you for it. Why is this so critical? Because most clients enter sessions carrying shame or fear of being misunderstood. If they sense criticism, they will close up. But if they feel accepted, they'll open up. That's when the real coaching begins. Matthew 7:1 says, do not judge, or you too will be judged. Jesus himself modeled this by welcoming people others rejected. He listened and he cared. He made them feel safe and seen. When you hold space for a client, you mirror the mercy and grace of God. Here's when to use this tool: every single coaching session, especially at the beginning of your relationship and anytime your client is sharing something tender or vulnerable. Holding space is the foundation of transformation. The second tool is a thought framework. Understanding how this framework functions will change how you coach and improve your effectiveness. This simple yet powerful framework, originally described within CBT structures and later coined as “The Model” and widely promoted by Brooke Castillo, demonstrates how circumstances trigger thoughts, which in turn create feelings, which drive actions, and ultimately lead to results. Now, this is the perfect example of an evidence-based coaching tool. This process is not really anything we can argue with—it is simply the way God created our brains to function. And we can see this evidence every day if we look for it. Here's how it looks in practice. Let's say your client says, “I'll never be able to do this.” That thought creates a feeling within them—in this case, most likely discouragement. That discouragement typically causes procrastination, and the result is failure to move forward. When you walk them through this framework, you will help them see the cycle and then choose a new thought, one that lines up with the truth and the outcome that they are really looking for. Romans 12:2 tells us, be transformed by the renewing of your mind. That's exactly what this framework helps our clients do. It takes what feels complicated and overwhelming and puts it into a simple framework that reveals where transformation needs to begin—in the thought life. Here's when to use this tool: anytime a client feels stuck, caught in old patterns, or unable to reach their goals. This framework helps them see the connection between their thoughts and outcomes, and equips them to make lasting change. I recommend you learn and practice this tool first. Use it on yourself and eventually, when it fully makes sense and flows, use it with your clients. The third tool is learning to process and allow a feeling. Most people do one of two things with emotions: they either resist them, pushing them down, or they indulge them, getting stuck in them. But neither approach leads to healing. As a coach, you can teach your clients to identify what they're feeling, notice where they sense it in their body, and allow it without judgment. For example, when grief shows up as heaviness in the chest, you can guide your client to breathe through it, describe it, and simply notice it. When they do, within minutes, the intensity usually begins to fade. 1 Peter 5:7 tells us, cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you. Processing emotions doesn't mean wallowing. It means experiencing them while releasing them to God. Clients learn that feelings aren't dangerous. They are signals that can be allowed, acknowledged, and surrendered to the Lord. Here's when to use this tool: anytime your client is feeling overwhelmed, dealing with loss, or feeling paralyzed by fear. It's especially crucial in grief coaching, stress relief coaching, and life transitions. The fourth tool is examining belief systems. Beliefs act like the operating system of our lives. Most of them are formed early, often through painful experiences. They can run silently in the background and dictate behavior without our clients even realizing it. As coaches, we listen for statements like, “I'm not good enough” or “things never work out for me.” Then we gently help clients examine them. Where did this belief come from? Is it really true? What would your life look like if you believed something different? Proverbs 23:7 says, as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. Beliefs are what we think in our hearts. And when a belief is a lie, it will keep producing destructive results. But when we replace lies with God's truth, lives change. A client who once believed, “I am worthless,” can learn to declare, “I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” And that's Psalm 139:14. Here's when to use this tool: anytime your client keeps hitting the same wall, self-sabotaging, or struggling with identity. This is deep, foundational work, and it's where some of the most profound breakthroughs happen. And finally, the fifth tool, which should really come as no surprise, is asking powerful questions. Unlike counseling or consulting, coaching is not about giving advice. Rather, it's about drawing out answers from within the client. That's why powerful, open-ended questions are a coach's sharpest tool. Instead of asking, “Did you try harder?” you might ask, “What do you think God wants to show you through this situation?” Or, “If you fully trusted His plan, what action would you take right now?” Proverbs 20:5 says, the purposes of a person's heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out. That's what powerful questions do. They draw out truth. And this is exactly how Jesus coached, through questions like “Who do you say I am?” or “Do you want to be healed?” Here's when to use this tool: throughout every coaching session. Questions are especially powerful when your client is stuck in old thinking, uncertain about a decision, or needs to see new possibilities.

Sometimes coaching sessions just don't go the way you expect. Your client might show up overwhelmed, jump between topics, or even tell you, “I don't have anything to coach on.” In those moments, it's easy to doubt yourself, and wonder how to steer the session without losing your confidence or momentum. That's why I'm sharing a simple coaching skill I call the 3 Question Reset. It's part of my new podcast series, Coaching Tools, where I teach practical frameworks and methods you can start using in your sessions right away to get real results. The 3 Question Reset helps you refocus the conversation and turns tricky, confusing moments into actionable insight - no matter the client or situation.

Der Möglichmacher Podcast mit Jan Schmiedel - Erkennen ist krasser als tun!
In der letzten Folge habe ich über das Gesetz der Anziehung gesprochen und wie gefährlich es werden kann. Heute gehe ich einen Schritt weiter. Denn wieder einmal treibt eine neue Sau durchs Dorf: Schattenarbeit. Plötzlich ist sie in aller Munde, kursiert als Coaching-Tool und wird in spirituellen Kreisen wie die neue Erfolgsformel gehandelt. Doch Schattenarbeit ist kein Spielplatz. Sie ist kein Trend und keine Verkaufsmasche. Sie ist uralt. Du findest sie in den sieben Prinzipien der Hermetik, in alten Kulturen, in überlieferten Schriften. Schattenarbeit ist ein Weg der radikalen Selbsterkenntnis, nicht die nächste Kachelweisheit, die auf Social Media Klicks bringt. In dieser Folge spreche ich darüber, wie geistige Schnellformeln entstehen, warum Menschen im Mangel so anfällig für sie sind, und wieso Zitate wie „Loslassen ist ein Anfang“ oder „Schattenarbeit bringt dich ins Licht“ oft nur Marketing-Schablonen sind. Mentale Intelligenz heißt: hinter diese Muster zu blicken, statt ihnen zu verfallen. Mentale Gesundheit wächst nicht durch das Wiederholen leerer Slogans, sondern durch echte Auseinandersetzung mit dem, was in dir wirkt. Selbstermächtigung heißt: zu erkennen, dass du selbst Ursache bist, nicht die Umstände, nicht die Algorithmen, nicht die Weisheiten anderer. In dieser Folge erfährst du: – warum spirituelle Erfolgsformeln kommen und gehen wie Moden – wieso „Klickbait-Weisheiten“ so verführerisch sind und wie sie wirken – wie das Prinzip von Ursache und Wirkung wirklich greift – bei dir – was Schattenarbeit in ihrer ursprünglichen Tiefe bedeutet – und wie Transformationsprozesse jenseits von Trends gestaltet werden Diese Folge ist ein Perspektivwechsel: weg von spirituellem Konsum, hin zu echter Verantwortung. Schattenarbeit ist keine neue Mode. Sie ist ein uralter, kraftvoller Weg und nur du entscheidest, ob du ihn gehst. Jan, der moderne Skalde - Worte, die wirken! Ich bin Jan Schmiedel, ein moderner Skalde. Meine Reise ist meine Botschaft – eine Suche nach Klarheit, Wahrheit und dem Mut, sich selbst zu begegnen. In einer Welt, die dich mit Erwartungen und Lärm überflutet, glaube ich daran, dass wahre Freiheit nur entsteht, wenn du bereit bist, deine eigene Dunkelheit zu durchschreiten und dein Licht zu entdecken. Hier geht es nicht um Perfektion, sondern um Authentizität. Nicht darum, zu gefallen, sondern darum, zu erkennen, wer du wirklich bist. Ich lade dich ein, die Ketten zu sprengen, die du dir selbst angelegt hast, und den Weg zu gehen, der nur dir gehört. Gemeinsam erforschen wir die Pfade, die zu deinem wahren Selbst führen. Es geht nicht darum, etwas zu tun – es geht darum, zu sein. Zu fühlen. Zu wachsen. Die Weisheit liegt nicht in der Antwort, sondern in der Frage, die du dir selbst stellst. Wenn du bereit bist, die Masken fallen zu lassen und dich deiner eigenen Wahrheit zu stellen, begleite ich dich. Nicht als Lehrer, sondern als Weggefährte. Dein Licht und deine Freiheit sind keine Ziele – sie sind bereits in dir. Mein Weg hat mich dazu gebracht, dass ich eine schwere Depression mit suizidalität und einer komplexern Traumafolgestörung selber geheilt habe. Willst du mehr über diesen Weg erfahren? Finde mich auf meiner Webseite: www.janschmiedel.coach Wahre Freiheit beginnt mit radikaler Ehrlichkeit – dir selbst gegenüber. #Selbsterkenntnis #JanSchmiedel #ErkennenIstLeben #MentaleFreiheit #Transformation #Perspektivwechsel #Selbstermächtigung #AuthentischSein #LebenImLicht

If you've ever wondered what the most powerful coaching tool is, you won't find it in a book or behind a paywall. It's you. In this solo episode, I unpack the real heart of coaching - not just techniques or tricks, but the human being behind them. I talk about how personal presence, lived experience, and behavioural range shape the effectiveness of any coach. We get into what it means to teach through who you are, why embodied wisdom matters more than intellectual knowledge, and how real transformation demands practice, not just ideas. I also explore different learning styles, the limits of propositional knowledge, and how being grounded in your nervous system, culture and personal story changes the impact you have. If you're a coach, or training to become one, this is about getting honest with your own development.

Send us a textSo, I have a question for you — what if running wasn't really about running? What if it was about something deeper… something you need to hold on to right now? In this week's episode, I'm talking about someone who's become kind of a running philosopher for me — Coach Chris Bennett, Nike's Global Head Coach. If you've ever needed a little push, a little grace, or a little space to just start something — anything — this one's for you. I'm also sharing a few how-to gems from him that helped me get unstuck. Yes, we're talking about runs… but we're also talking about your life, your work, and letting go of what's weighing you down. And of course, I'll give you a quick update on my PCT section hike from Siskiyou Pass to Elk Lake, the beauty, the snow, and the big lesson that this trip — like this episode — is about: purpose, grit, and connection. If you're ready to fall back in love with your own movement, your own rhythm, and your own project, give this one a listen. I'm walking — and running — right beside you.

Mike Potenza is the Head of Performance for the San Jose Sharks of the NHL, where he oversees the strength & conditioning and nutrition staffs and serves as a liaison to the Sharks medical training staff to ensure a streamlined collaboration between the two departments, focusing on the Sharks player's health, training, fitness, and rehabilitation programs. Potenza began his career as the strength and conditioning coach for the University of Wisconsin Men and Women hockey teams, both who captured the 2006 NCAA National Championship. Potenza also had responsibilities with the wrestling and softball programs at Wisconsin. Between 2006-2022, Potenza served as the Sharks strength and conditioning coach. He was directly responsible for the team's overall strength and conditioning programs, which included the physical testing and evaluation at training camp, creation of individualized workout programs, and assistance in the rehabilitation programs for all injured players.

Here's the truth no one talks about: You don't get what you want in life—you get what your nervous system feels safe receiving.Think about it—every client who comes to work with you has something they deeply desire. They've likely tried multiple strategies, taken all the "right" steps, and still aren't seeing results. Whether it's more money, a thriving relationship, or a successful business, the reason their goal remains out of reach often isn't due to a lack of capability or an outside factor–but because their nervous system isn't yet on board.Nervous system regulation is the missing link between your goals and your ability to receive the outcome of your achievement. If you're trying to hustle your way into a vision that your body doesn't feel safe holding, you'll burn out or sabotage. This is why Master Coach Training is such a powerful process for you as a coach, and for the clients you serve. The nervous system equates "familiar" with "safe"–even if that means staying stuck instead of moving forward. Today, we'll look at what nervous system regulation truly looks like so you can break this pattern, and I'll offer you several coaching tools and strategies that will help you and your clients expand your capacity to receive from a place of safety. The vision you have for your life and business is powerful, but it can't just be about setting goals. You can want something sincerely, but without nervous system regulation, you will stay stuck. When you have the holistic coaching tools to build safety and open yourself up to receive, real transformation and lasting change are possible—for you and your clients. What you'll learn:Why true nervous system regulation focuses on helping your body get used to something different Common signs that your nervous system does not feel safe receiving–and what to do about themPractical coaching tools to create safety in the nervous system: somatic anchoring, tapping, and microdosing changeHow to bridge the gap between your vision and the safety you need to achieve itJournal prompts to uncover why it feels unsafe to get what you wantYou can read the full show notes here.Connect with Molly ClaireMolly's Website: MollyClaire.ComMaster Coach Training 2026 Application Open Have a question or thoughts about the podcast?

Entscheidungsstärke trainieren – Shownotes In dieser Episode von TomsTalkTime dreht sich alles um das Thema Entscheidungsstärke trainieren. Entscheidungen bestimmen unseren unternehmerischen Erfolg – oder eben unseren Misserfolg. Wer nicht entscheidet, wird entschieden. Wer zögert, verliert. Doch genau da hakt es bei vielen Unternehmern: Sie überlegen zu lange, analysieren zu viel – und kommen nicht ins Handeln. Tom zeigt dir heute, warum Entscheidungsstärke so entscheidend ist, was dich innerlich blockiert und wie du lernst, klarer, schneller und souveräner zu entscheiden. Ohne Hin und Her. Ohne ewiges Grübeln. Sondern mit Fokus, Klarheit und der richtigen Haltung. Zusammenfassung und Stichpunkte „Entscheidungsstärke trainieren“ – das klingt erstmal wie ein Coaching-Tool, ist aber in Wahrheit eine der wichtigsten Eigenschaften erfolgreicher Unternehmer. Denn Entscheidungen sind nicht nur täglicher Bestandteil des Unternehmertums, sondern sie sind der Wegweiser für dein ganzes Business. Wer nicht entscheidet, bleibt stehen – oder wird überholt. In dieser Episode erfährst du: Warum Entscheidungsstärke die Basis für unternehmerischen Erfolg ist Die drei häufigsten Gründe für Entscheidungsschwäche – und wie du sie auflöst Warum Prokrastination oft ein verkleidetes Entscheidungsproblem ist Wie du mit der 80/20-Regel deine Entscheidungskraft schärfst Wie du mit dem „2-Minuten-Test“ schnelle und gute Entscheidungen triffst Tom spricht aus Erfahrung – und aus zahlreichen Gesprächen mit erfolgreichen Unternehmern. Alle haben eines gemeinsam: Sie treffen Entscheidungen. Nicht perfekt. Aber mutig und konsequent. Denn genau darin liegt die wahre Stärke. Diese Folge ist genau das Richtige für dich, wenn du merkst, dass du zu oft zögerst. Wenn du das Gefühl hast, in deinem Business nicht schnell genug voranzukommen. Und wenn du endlich Klarheit gewinnen willst. Entscheidungsstärke trainieren bedeutet: Mehr Selbstvertrauen, mehr Fokus und letztlich mehr Erfolg. Shownotes und Episodendetails Episode 896 – Entscheidungsstärke trainieren – Schluss mit Hin und Her In dieser Folge spricht Tom Klartext: Unternehmer, die keine Entscheidungen treffen, bleiben stecken. Deshalb geht es heute darum, wie du deine Entscheidungsstärke trainieren kannst – mit einfachen, aber wirkungsvollen Methoden. Viele Unternehmer zögern – aus Angst vor Fehlern, aus Unsicherheit oder aus reinem Perfektionismus. Doch dieses Zögern kostet Zeit, Energie und am Ende auch Umsatz. Tom zeigt dir, wie du diese Blockaden erkennst und durch klare Strategien überwindest. Inhalte dieser Episode: Wieso Entscheidungskraft wichtiger ist als Fachwissen Wie du erkennst, wann du dich selbst sabotierst Warum zu viele Optionen oft lähmen – und wie du damit umgehst Wie Prokrastination dich von guten Entscheidungen abhält Die 80/20-Regel: Fokus auf die entscheidenden 20 % Der 2-Minuten-Test – dein neues Entscheidungswerkzeug Durch gezieltes Entscheidungsstärke trainieren gewinnst du Souveränität zurück. Du hörst auf, dich zu verzetteln, und fängst an, dein Business aktiv zu lenken. Denn in Wahrheit ist keine Entscheidung auch eine Entscheidung – nur meistens die schlechteste. Besonders hilfreich: Du bekommst konkrete Fragen und Techniken an die Hand, mit denen du sofort loslegen kannst. Das macht diese Folge zu einem echten Praxis-Impuls für jeden Unternehmer, der mehr Klarheit und weniger Hin und Her will. Wenn du also das Gefühl hast, du drehst dich bei Entscheidungen oft im Kreis, dann wird dir diese Folge helfen, deine innere Bremse zu lösen. Entscheidungsstärke trainieren ist keine Magie – es ist ein Muskel, den du aufbauen kannst. Und genau das zeigt dir Tom hier. Hör rein und finde heraus, wie du dein Denken neu ausrichtest, Blockaden durchbrichst und mit klarer Haltung souverän führst. Dein Unternehmen wird es dir danken – und du dir selbst auch. Und denk immer daran: Wer will, findet Wege. Wer nicht will, findet Gründe. Tschüss, mach's gut. Dein Tom. Hol Dir jetzt Dein Hörbuch "Selfmade Millionäre packen aus" und klicke auf das Bild!

How to improve your rowing using self-diagnosis coaching and progressive drills. Timestamps 00:45 A powerful coaching tool for both coaches and athletes. Masters rowers like autonomy. Enabling the athlete to work things out for themselves facilitates mastery in a self-directed environment. The change is more likely to stick. Canada research by Derrik Motz, University of Ottawa on athlete coach relationship Coaching Masters Athletes – Advancing Research & Practice in Adult Sport https://fastermastersrowing.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/MOTZ-Faster-Masters_Rowing_webinar.pdf If you don't have regular coaching, this is a tool to try. 02:00 Start with a model of good rowing This has to have common understanding across your group. The rowing stroke cycle diagram is a good place to start. Where your rowing goes wrong - an example of a boat going "wonky" which was caused by the athletes stamping hard on the foot stretcher. 04:00 Progressive movements Start by working out when you do not have the problem. In this case increase the pressure progressively from 60% pressure, 70% etc and work out when the issue started to happen. Discuss this with your crew about the cause of the problem. Then decide what fixes the problem? Can you make the change in 1 stroke? 1 - identify the problem is happening 2 - what to do to fix it 3 - fix it in as few strokes as possible 4 - row in the new way so the problem doesn't occur 06:15 An example from sweep rowing - balancing the boat. The boat is balanced generally when the oars are under the water and the imbalance occurs on the recovery when the oars are out of the water. Our model of good rowing has the boat balanced throughout the stroke cycle. Is the boat balanced as the oars come out of the water? Yes. Is it still balanced when we get our arms straight / body rock forwards / roll up the slide? Work out where the problem starts to happen and then decide what to do to effect a change. The cause might be timing of the oar handle movement at the finish transition to the recovery. What fixes this? Probably handle heights or sequencing of the finish body movement. If handle height is the issue. Choose a drill like rowing with the oar flat on the water on the recovery. Then progressively change this to increase the depth of handle push down to take the oar out of the water. Then keep the handle at this height throughout the recovery until the next catch. The progression is to start with a 1 cm tap down; move to 2 cm and 3 cm. Can you keep the boat level at these stages? The self - diagnosis method helps us to diagnose the issue, fix the problem and then row in the new way. Use your autonomy to try to fix the issue and see if you can make it work in practice.

Send us a textSelf-kindness might be the most overlooked tool in your coaching practice. In this eye-opening conversation with Emma-Louise Elsie, founder of Fierce Kindness Solutions Inc., we explore how cultivating self-compassion can transform coaching outcomes in our increasingly divisive world.Emma shares her powerful PACT framework—Pause, Ask, Choose, Time—that gives coaches a practical structure for helping clients implement self-kindness. She explains how this seemingly simple concept addresses the toxic cultural belief that self-kindness equals weakness or selfishness, which keeps many high-achievers trapped in cycles of overwhelm and diminished effectiveness.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Emma reveals how to identify when clients need self-kindness most. Watch for warning signs like "I should be able to push through," difficulty setting boundaries, or signs of imposter syndrome. As Emma points out, "The challenge with self-kindness isn't knowing what to do—it's trusting and respecting yourself enough to actually do it."What makes this episode particularly valuable is the direct connection between self-kindness and coaching effectiveness. By teaching clients to recognize their unique stress signals and respond with intentional self-kindness, coaches help them become more authentic, resilient, and ultimately more successful. Emma's approach mirrors fundamental coaching principles of awareness, choice, and accountability.Ready to bring more self-kindness into your coaching practice?

Mindfulness can transform your communication and your career.When we react, our instincts and impulses are in the driver's seat. But when we take the time to reflect, that's when Marshall Goldsmith says we take back control of how we respond.“Before speaking at work, breathe,” Goldsmith says. “Is my comment going to improve this other human being's commitment? At home, breathe. Is my comment going to improve this relationship with someone I love? If the answer is no, why am I saying it?”As a world-renowned executive coach, speaker, and best-selling author, Goldsmith teaches how a mindful approach can change how we relate to others, to ourselves, and even to our career goals and ambitions. Through reflection, we identify our values, which we can use to live what Goldsmith calls an “earned life — when the choices, risks, and effort we make in each moment align with an overarching purpose in our lives.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Goldsmith joins host Matt Abrahams to explore practical strategies for bettering our interactions with others and ourselves, from his “feed forward” method for giving and receiving constructive critique to his "daily questions" practice, which prompts reflective self-inquiry to keep us focused on what truly matters.Episode Reference Links:Marshall GoldsmithMarshall's Books: What Got Here Won't Get You There / Triggers Ep.138 Speak Your Truth: Why Authenticity Leads to Better CommunicationConnect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:35) - Key Communication Advice (02:17) - An Earned Life (04:14) - Transition to Leadership (05:45) - Breathe Before Speaking (07:00) - Feedforward vs. Feedback (08:00) - Managing Triggers (09:51) - Daily Success Checklist (12:29) - Using AI for Coaching (13:58) - Influencing Up Leadership (15:33) - The Final Three Questions (18:28) - Conclusion
