Ep. 25 | The Magic of Professional Coaching (ft. Marla Dufek)

Like watching any great magician, the work of a professional coach can leave one feeling awestruck. Coaches may seem to effortlessly create solutions out of thin air, but as many of us have come to learn, magic is oftentimes an illusion. When it comes to professional coaching, the solutions don't just magically pop into existence, nor do they come from up the coach's sleeve; the solutions come from you: the client. One of the fundamental beliefs of professional coaching is that you are naturally creative, resourceful and whole and that the key to unlocking your problems can be found within the packages of knowledge that already exist inside of your brain. That's why coaching isn't giving advice or telling people what they should/shouldn't do; coaching is a dance between two partners who are ready to discover the solution together. It's about listening, intuition and unearthing the truth, and when done correctly, can leave both parties feeling truly fulfilled... and that's no illusion. In today's episode, we sit down with profession coach, Marla Dufek, and discuss topics such as being present in the moment, the importance of setting values and discovering the emotions that drive you.   Our Speaker: Marla Dufek Marla entered into her career as a professional coach with a desire to help people see themselves as naturally creative resourceful and whole. She is certified under the International Coaching Federation and is a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach. We are proud to introduce Marla Dufek.
