Happy to practice!

This is a great, great, great question, Toni! I’m happy to venture a response to get the conversation started. The training structure is the same across all the days—the only thing that shifts is the chakra we’re focusing on. Where the intuition comes in where we, as individuals, show up. The scripts are springboards, and we draw on our intuition to decide when to lead, when to follow, how to mentor, and how to integrate during sessions with clients. The content isn’t enough on its own—it needs us: our personalities, our banks of expertise, and the way we show up as coaches (as someone new to coaching, this is definitely where my own learning edge is). When we practice in breakout rooms, we can’t just read straight from the page. We have to lean in with more of ourselves, using our intuitive faculties to give the session body and vitality. That looks like making choices that build rapport at the start, creating a sense of safety so clients feel free to share, and then tailoring as we go. Those tailoring choices are inherently intuitive—our attunement to the client. For example, I’ve been in practice sessions where the coach went off-script: maybe pausing to repeat an idea in a new way, or adding a short unscripted reflection or connection. Those small adjustments helped me really hear something I needed to hear, feel it more deeply, and gain new insight. If you haven’t experienced a practice session where the coach adds that “something extra,” it’s hard to imagine—but when you do, you can feel the difference.

Sure sounds like you pretty much took this course already, Toni... But, you should certainly raise this question at the Q&A!
