    158. Coaching Integrity: How to Decide What It Means to You

    158. Coaching Integrity: How to Decide What It Means to You

    Integrity is a word that gets thrown around a lot in the coaching industry. Living in accordance with my deepest values is how I like to think about being in integrity as a coach. However, it often means different things to different people. If you’ve seen examples of integrity that don’t align with your definition of it, it’s time to redefine it for yourself.
     
    Discover what it means to have integrity as a coach and how to define it for yourself. I’m sharing four ways you might be using the concept of integrity against yourself, how it’s acting as a disservice to you and your clients, and what actually cultivates trust, safety, and respect with your clients.

Lindsay creates a container for exponential growth

I am an OG coach lab member so I have had a ton of exposure to Lindsay and her coaching. Her ability to create a safe space and give gentle and firm guidance to coaches is amazing. She is approachable and open. The Coach Lab is full of high level coaching guidance. If you haven’t spent time listening to this podcast and you are a coach, do it. She gives so much value in the podcast. But it gets even better in the lab.
