Manage episode 472429183 series 3334398
Most coaches don’t realize that they don’t need to have all the right answers to be great at what they do. Great coaches don’t know everything. But they do know how to ask the right questions.
Sounds simple, right?
But not all questions actually help. We all know that yes/no questions usually fall flat. But there are also the ones that keep clients stuck in self-doubt, send them in the wrong direction, or get them rambling about surface-level stuff that doesn’t really matter. And that’s not what we’re here for.
In this episode, Liv shares 10 questions designed to bring clarity, inspire action, and challenge limiting beliefs. These are the tools that will help you to cut through the noise and spark real breakthroughs.
Liv challenges you to try them in your sessions – you’ll see the difference. No more going in circles. No more feeling stuck. Just deeper conversations and real progress.
