How To Build Your Coaching Skills - The Art Of Coaching

How confident do you feel about your skills as a coach?

Maybe you’ve been focusing a lot of your efforts on building your business and marketing your services…but how much time have you invested in up-leveling your coaching skills?

The skill set of coaching is so foundational to building a successful business as a coach, but it doesn’t always receive the attention it deserves.

My guest today is Lee Chaix McDonough, and Lee is the CEO and Founder of Coach With Clarity, a training and education company for life coaches and business coaches. She is also the host of the Coach with Clarity podcast and author of the #1 Amazon bestseller, ACT On Your Business: Braving the storms of entrepreneurship and creating success through meaning, mindset, and mindfulness.

Lee and I have a lot in common, including having come from conventional healthcare professions and now turning our attention to the world of coaching. After over a decade as a clinical social worker and public health professional, Lee became credentialed as a coach through the International Coach Federation and now provides her own training and continuing education for intuitive, innovative coaches.

Lee lives in North Carolina with her husband, two sons, and her pug Phineas, and she joins us today to talk about all things coaching.
