    Felt Sense in Coaching: Somatic & Precognitive Awareness with Tijen Genco

    What is felt sense in coaching, and how do master coaches work with it? In this Season 2 premiere of Coaching with Mastery and Elegance, Master Coach Tijen Genco, MCC, and Sajili Mohan Chawla explore the Felt Sense Domain — the first domain of the Comprehensive Coaching Taxonomy. This is where transformational coaching begins: in the precognitive, somatic, and energetic signals that arise before thought, story, or interpretation. Drawing from the insight, “felt senses are often precognitive… we read sense, then we make meaning,” Tijen shows how emotional inquiry and somatic reflection help coaches partner beneath the client’s narrative. You’ll learn the difference between coaching the story vs coaching the felt experience. This episode covers somatic coaching techniques for: Recognizing emotional and somatic indicators before meaning-makingUsing spacious reflection to avoid narrative loops and cognitive distortionsPartnering across culture, trauma, and identity with energetic attunementPracticing attuned presence: listening for, into, and with the clientKnowing when to access emotional, somatic, or energetic layers in sessionPerfect for: ICF coaches, mentor coaches, MCC candidates, and leaders seeking mastery in embodied coaching, transformational coaching, and nervous system coaching.

    High‑Resolution Coaching in Action: Somatic and Metaphoric Coaching, Identity, and Relational Mastery Exploration

    Special Episode Masterful Coaching Demo - Looking for a masterclass in advanced somatic coaching? In this episode of Coaching with Mastery and Elegance, Master Certified Coach (MCC) and author Tijen Genco breaks down a profound, high-resolution executive coaching session with fellow MCC coach and HR leader Philip Chan. Together, they explore how somatic intelligence, symbolic language, and identity evolution create transformative shifts far beyond transactional, cognitive coaching. Drawing from the Comprehensive Coaching Taxonomy, Tijen demonstrates how multidimensional inquiry and embodied awareness restore client sovereignty and self-harmonic expression. In this intimate, behind-the-scenes conversation, Tijen and Philip revisit a coaching session that moved from a seemingly simple leadership negotiation challenge into a deep exploration of cultural identity, somatic symbolism, and self‑agency. Philip shares what it felt like to experience “awareness after awareness” in a deeply safe container. Key Takeaways & Advanced Coaching Insights: Somatic Coaching and Metaphors in Action: How physical somatic cues—like Philip’s “water level rising to the cheeks”—reveal emotional architecture and hidden energetic patterns. Symbolic and Metaphoric Inquiry: Using reflective light to open new pathways of subconscious awareness beyond traditional cognitive analysis. Cultural Identity & Leadership: How cultural upbringing implicitly shapes an executive's identity, core values, and self‑expression. Integrating the "Rescuer Archetype": Archetypal coaching. Why the inner rescuer doesn’t need to be rejected, but can instead graduate into a mature, integrated expression. The Human Edge vs. AI Coaching: Why true relational mastery and human-forward coaching cannot be replicated by artificial intelligence in leadership development. This episode is a living demonstration of master-level coaching where somatic, symbolic, energetic, and cognitive dimensions converge to reveal the client’s inner architecture.

    Comprehensive Coaching Taxonomy: A High Resolution Approach to Human Relational Coaching

    In this special book‑launch episode of Coaching withMastery and Elegance, Master Certified Coach Tijen Genco and Sajili Mohan Chawla explore the multidimensional architecture behind Tijen’s new book, ComprehensiveCoaching Taxonomy: Generative & Regenerative Pathways for High‑Resolution Transformation. Together, they illuminate why coaching must evolve beyond competency checklists and into a more relational, perceptive, and human‑centeredpractice. They are joined by Philip Chen, MCC, who reflects on his experience as a client in a demonstration coaching session with Tijen. A 5‑minute clip from that session offers listeners a rare window into High‑Resolution Coaching in action — revealing subtle shifts, energetic attunements, and the multilayered inquiries that shape the relational field between coach and client. Throughout the conversation, Tijen and Sajili unpack the book’s generative pathways and regenerative pathways, the role of presence and perception, and the deeper mechanisms that support meaningful transformation. Philip adds his perspective as a coach, trainer, assessor, and client, highlighting the approach's authenticity and depth.

    The Human Computational Logic of Fear: Redefining Resilience for the C-Suite and Beyond

    What if fear isn't a flaw, but a sophisticated data point? In this episode, Tijen and Sajili deconstruct fear through the lens of human development and executive mastery. Tijen introduces her provocative framework: Fear as a Computational Predictive Error. This is the precise moment the human system fails to reconcile a perceived threat with its internal sense of capability. By moving fear out of the realm of "emotion" and into "adaptive intelligence," this conversation provides a roadmap for leaders and Master-level coaches to navigate the high-stakes "suspension states" of fight, flight, freeze, or fawn. In this episode, we explore: The Neuro-Logic of Fear: How inherited programming and sensory memory shape executive identity and decision-making.Identity vs. Survival: Why the modern "threat" is often a perceived loss of status or ego rather than physical safety.The "What If" Pivot: Transforming anxiety-driven loops into strategic, creative pathways.Coaching at the MCC Level: Validating a client’s reality while skillfully loosening the grip of limiting narratives.Ancient Wisdom, Modern Future: Using the myths of Rapunzel and Perseus as mirrors for our current AI-shaped landscape.Tijen also reveals her 5-Step Resilience Methodology, grounded in her personal journey through breast cancer. She illustrates how sovereignty, cultural sensitivity, and professional partnership create a blueprint for grounded resilience in the face of life’s most profound unknowns. Rethink fear. It isn’t a barrier—it’s a portal to your next level of capability. ⁠⁠Tijen’s Coaching Book About Coaching with Precision and Mastery⁠Resolutions to Realizations: Goal Getter Group Coaching Program - Waitlisting for 2026 CohortSufi Pathways to Heart: Philosophical Concepts to MasteryGroup Mentor Coaching ⁠⁠– beginning in April 2026Genco Method Somatic Approach to Coach Training Genco Method Human Needs Coaching Master ClassMore about Organizational Change Resilience Methodology and Services
