EP 93: What to Do When Clients Won't Answer Your Questions

What do you do when you can't figure out what your client actually needs? Coaching alone is hard, and without peer review or a space to troubleshoot tricky client scenarios, it's easy to feel stuck, uncertain, or like you're missing something important. In this episode, host Dr. Kasey Jo Orvidas and co-host, Sarah Tierney, pull real questions from HMCC students and alumni about challenging client situations. From clients who struggle with open-ended questions to moments when coaching feels more like a sounding board than a strategy session. In this episode, you'll learn:How to navigate when you can't tell if a client has a knowledge gap or a self-efficacy issueWhat to do when clients struggle to answer open-ended questions (and why offering multiple-choice guidance can be a game-changer)How to address red-flag language from clients without making them feel judged or shamedAnd so much more! If you've ever felt directionless with a client, unsure what question to ask next, or wondered "am I even helping?", this episode will give you the clarity and confidence to troubleshoot real client scenarios more effectively. Episode #33: What to do When a Client Ghosts You Connect with us on Instagram: @coachkaseyjo@sarahmichelletierney Grab 5 Free Lessons in Mindset and Behavior Change Coaching [HMCC WAITLIST] LEAVE A REVIEW, WIN A WORKSHOP!
