How to Coach Someone With Hypothalamic Amenorrhea
In this article I will be sharing with you a valuable coaching nugget that can truly transform the way you support your clients and patients who are recovering from hypothalamic amenorrhea and other fertility issues: the art of active listening.
In the world of coaching it's easy to fall into the trap of wanting to provide solutions to all of our clients' “issues” aka over coaching. However, I invite you to consider a more profound approach—one that empowers your clients to discover their own solutions and create meaningful, lasting change.
Listen More, Speak Less. Tips to get more transformation with your fertility clients.
Active Listening
The foundation of this approach lies in active listening. When you actively listen to your clients, you create a safe and supportive space for them to express their thoughts, feelings, and concerns. This process involves giving your full attention, asking open-ended questions, and suspending judgment.
Guide, Don't Fix
Instead of rushing to provide answers or solutions, guide your clients to explore their own thoughts and feelings. Encourage them to dig deeper, uncover their values, and gain insights into their challenges. As coaches, our role is to facilitate self-discovery, not impose our own views or solutions.
Empowerment
By letting go of the need to fix everything, you empower your clients to take ownership of their lives. This empowerment fosters a sense of agency and self-confidence, which are essential for sustainable change.
What sets us at The HA Society apart as coaches is that we have the tactical knowledge combined with the empathy, compassion and soft skills needed from years of coaching and counseling. This is what allows us to work with women to implement changes that actually stick.
HA is much more complex than eating more and exercising less, you know that and your client knows that.
