"You can do this! No Excuses!"
The motivational speeches given to clients sound harmless enough. Under the right conditions they even feel inspiring. Rarely if ever do they create true behavior change. Especially if someone has a hidden trauma history.
When someone has trauma in their history even the most well meaning advice, simple meditation, or empathetic reaction can land flat or even cause re-traumatization.
The client thinks... "I'm not working hard enough," "I'm not smart enough," "I don't get it," or "I'm lazy." They start thinking something is wrong with them and begin to subtly (or not so subtly) retreat from meeting their goals.
The coach starts to think... "they just don't want it bad enough."
Even great coaches, millionaire coaches, successful coaches do unintentional harm every day. This leaves clients worse-off rather than better. With some simple modifications to the coaching approach, the client could have had a successful outcome and the coach could have had a great testimonial or case study for their work (and even repeat business!)

Everyone you work with has trauma blocks.
Some practitioner say... "I don't work with trauma" when in fact it's unavoidable. If a practitioner understands trauma they can work more quickly, safely, and effectively, guiding their clients to transformational results. These practitioners seemingly can help anyone and don't get bothered or flustered. They get more repeat customers, better testimonials, and case studies that do the marketing for them so they can spend more time making an impact and less time chasing clients.
Mistakes happen every day below the radar... even with highly qualified experts. That's why we've created this course.
Working with trauma doesn't have to be scary or "messy." In fact... it can be very empowering!

5 Big Trauma Myths You Need to Know!
5 Big Trauma Myths You Need to Know!
Myth 1: Coaches Don't Work with people who have Trauma
Myth 1: Coaches Don't Work with people who have Trauma
Coaches DO work with people who have trauma EVERY DAY. They just don't know it. There is no way to avoid (nor should you) people who have a trauma history. Even if they are not aware of it or educated about it... coaches work with people who have trauma histories and it invisibly impacts the client's progress.
Myth 2: Trauma is in the past
Myth 2: Trauma is in the past
It is very common to want to stay away from the past when working with clients so that you don't get into the "therapy lane" by accident. However trauma, although it may have happened in the past, is expressed in the present. Trauma is "locked" in the body tissue. This creates present day problems with motivation, focus, distraction, procrastination, time management, relationships, communication, action taking etc. Trauma may have happened in the past... but it's expression continues to live on in the present.
Myth 3: Mindfulness, meditations, centering exercises & visualizations are safe for everyone
Myth 3: Mindfulness, meditations, centering exercises & visualizations are safe for everyone
Because they tap into the parts of the nervous system where trauma is "locked in", seemingly harmless and "pleasant" exercises such as mindfulness, meditations, visualizations or even a few deep breaths can "unlock" a person's trauma. Your client may be very adept at hiding this from you! Trauma re-activation may look like lack of interest, negativity or problems "showing up" when really the coach has created an opportunity for trauma re-activation.
Myth 4: Trauma can be isolated
Myth 4: Trauma can be isolated
"I don't work with trauma" a coach may want to say. However, while they may think that working with trauma is an isolated event, our traumas infuse and inform the way we do everything. Trauma can not be isolated. It doesn't only come out at certain times. Traumas inform how people work, play, relate to others in relationships, take care of themselves and others, money, business performance... and how they think and feel about everything!
Myth 5: Trauma is messy!
Myth 5: Trauma is messy!
Working with trauma does NOT have to look like having major breakdowns, uncontrollable emotions, scary anger, or massive catharsis. In fact, working with trauma can feel empowering! Coaches who have worked on their own trauma responses predictably find it easy and incredibly rewarding to guide and navigate others process... even and especially when trauma comes up.
