…about my final training for relationship coaching this weekend was a revelation made by the co-leaders near the end of the session. This was our second course led by the same two leaders, David and Sandra. Their compatibility in the front of the room set the tone for both sessions.
It goes without saying that all of the leaders from the Center for Right Relationships handle the material brilliantly. A unique characteristic of this training involves having two leaders for every course. It’s a powerful learning model. Seeing two personality types talking about the same material offers participants a wider range of possibility than having just one instructor.
David and Sandra’s “dance” in the front of the room was so effortless and joyful that it somehow made the challenging material easier to absorb. There was palpable admiration, affection and respect demonstrated throughout the three days.
Near the end of the weekend David told us something that sealed the deal for me as far as this work goes. Although he and Sandra had known each other through the world of coaching, they had never led a class together. When they got the assignment to co-lead, Sandra requested that they hire a relationship coach to help them design their alliance, which they did.
In the advertising world the question that gets asked is, “Will the dog eat the dog food?” It means, what is the company’s confidence in its own products? Not only did Sandra and David ‘eat the dogfood’ they’re pedigree specimens of what I believe is a world-changing practice.
When I began my coaching certification a few years ago and was trying out new skills, I didn’t want to practice on existing clients. They had different expectations for what our sessions would be like. Instead, I offered several colleagues a greatly reduced price to get coached. For me it was an opportunity to practice and swing out and not worry about getting fired. Without that performance pressure, I was able to ‘rehearse’ and get responses. The result was far beyond my wildest dreams. My practice clients were growing dramatically and helping me see my value. The new tools were so powerful that I soon began employing them with all of my clients.
Now, I just got back from that great weekend I’d mentioned last week–the course I took in Boston on coaching relationships. It was superb! And I want to practice, practice, practice. Get ready for a bargain! Here’s my offer: the first 10 people who take me up on this will get a session for $25 to discuss a relationship they want to focus on.
The specifics:
- A 30-minute (to one hour session) to design a partnership alliance, to get clarity on an issue with a relationship, to promote positivity in a relationship or to resolve a conflict in a relationship.
- Sessions are by phone at a mutually convenient time.
- Calls can be with you as an individual discussing a relationship, or you with and the other person.
- Sample session rate offer: $25 payable by credit card
Since I’ll be taking four more courses in this area, stay tuned for future offers. First come, first served!
