642 | Excuse Coaching
Your brain is really good at handing you a fact that isn't one. "I don't have time" and "I can't afford it" feel true right up until you look at them closely.
In this episode I break down the two excuses I hear most from aspiring coaches, no time and no money, and show you exactly how to tell the difference between a fact and a thought dressed up as one. I walk through how I coach myself through this in real time, why this skill matters as much for your own life as it does for your clients, and how reframing an excuse as a choice puts you back in the driver's seat.
Topics discussed:
- Why "I don't have time" is a thought, not a fact, and how to prove it to yourself
- The real reason athletes get better grades with less time
- How to shift "I can't afford it" into a decision you're actually making
- Why the obstacle is the way, and how I use that lens with my own excuses
- How coaching yourself through excuses makes you a better coach for everyone else
