Ep18: Helping Clients Change Habits
from Craft of Coaching Podcast · host Kate Swoboda
If you've coached for more than five minutes, you've probably heard a version of this: “I know what I should be doing… I just don’t do it.”In this episode of The Craft of Coaching, we’re diving into the art (and science) of helping clients actually change their habits. Because knowing what you want to change is one thing—but sticking with that change? That’s where most people get stuck.We’ll explore what gets in the way of habit change and how to support clients in creating sustainable shifts—without relying on willpower or perfectionism. I’ll share practical coaching strategies that help clients understand the why behind their habits, identify what’s keeping them stuck, and design new behaviors that actually fit their lives.We’ll also talk about how to gently disrupt all-or-nothing thinking, how to work with resistance when it shows up (because it always does), and how to anchor new habits in deeper values and motivations.This episode is full of real talk and actionable tools you can bring into your sessions right away—so you can support clients in making meaningful, lasting changes that go beyond just checking boxes.Coaching + Courage + Community = CLCC.
