    Coaching in English: Escaping the "Language Locker" [Part 1 of 4]

    Do you feel like a "fool" or a "child" the moment you switch to English? If you are a successful professional who still carries a heavy "mental load" of self-judgment, you are likely hiding in what my guest calls the Language Locker. In the premiere of this 4-part series, Stacey Marie Hiebert sits down with Patricia Cyprien Cloarec—entrepreneur, author, and founder of the École du Coaching Inclusif. Patricia shares her deeply personal journey of "pacifying her relationship" with her own voice. We explore why high-level coaches often fall into the "Apology Trap"—saying "I'm sorry for my English" even when their clients find the work "perfect." This episode is a deep dive into shifting your energy from "Am I good enough?" to "Are we connecting?" What you will learn: The Creole Scar: How a childhood memory of laughter in Guadeloupe created a "perfection block" in adulthood. Presence over Perfection: Moving from the "Language Locker" to a warm landscape of possibilities. Inclusion of Self: Why true leadership starts with including your own "imperfect" voice. The "Bloom" Strategy: How to move from "I have to" practice to "I want to" connect. Timestamps:  00:00 - The "Apology Trap" Hook  01:15 - Introducing Patricia & Inclusive Leadership  07:45 - The Reality Check: Why we apologize for our level  15:30 - The Metaphor: Being inside the Language Locker  24:10 - Deep Roots: The Creole background and the fear of being a "fool"  33:00 - Finding "Bloom" and Global Opportunities  40:00 - Question for the Listeners: How do you define your relationship with language?
