The Coaching Studio with Lyssa deHart
the Coaching Studio with Guest Clare Norman, MCC
In this engaging episode of The Coaching Studio, host Lyssa deHart sits down with Clare Norman, MCC, a mentor coach, coaching supervisor, and author, to discuss elevating the practice of coaching through personal transformation and coaching readiness. Clare shares insights from her 20+ years of experience, focusing on her core philosophy of "marginal gains"—small, impactful shifts that can drive significant improvements in coaching practice. She emphasizes the importance of mindset shifts for coaches, advocating that sustainable transformation in clients requires coaches to examine and adjust their own beliefs and habits.
Clare highlights key themes from her books, including The Transformational Coach, which helps coaches unlearn restrictive mindsets, and Cultivating Coachability, which provides a framework for assessing coaching readiness. She shares her thoughts on coaching readiness vs. coachability, explaining that readiness involves ensuring coaching is the right fit for a client’s needs, while coachability involves building a client’s "thinking muscles" throughout the coaching process.
Throughout the conversation, Clare offers practical guidance on how coaches can shift from transactional to transformational coaching by focusing on "being" over "doing" and creating an environment that empowers clients as thinkers. She also reflects on her personal growth journey and how working with a Gestalt therapist has helped her deepen her awareness, aligning with her mission to continually evolve as a coach. This episode is packed with valuable insights for coaches seeking to deepen their practice and shift their approach to create lasting change in their clients. Join Lyssa and Clare for an inspiring conversation on the art of transformational coaching.
