Emotional Granularity: The Coaching Power of Naming Emotions (ft. Tobias Weghorn)

In this episode, Noelle Cordeaux sits down with Tobias Weghorn — co-founder of metaFox and host of the Making of a Coach podcast — to unpack emotional granularity: the skill of moving from "I feel like sh*t" to "I feel lonely, because my need for connection isn't met," and why that shift is where real change begins. Coming from an engineering background and grounded in systemic NLP, mindfulness, and strengths psychology, Tobi shows how metaFox's picture and emotion cards give coaches a low-friction way to help clients go deep, fast. In this episode, you'll learn: Why a bigger emotional vocabulary makes feelings actionable The two levels of EQ: having the words, and feeling it in your body The "third object effect"... why clients reveal more when they talk about an image instead of themselves What to reach for when a client keeps saying "I don't know" Want to try the tools?
