“Meet your clients where they’re at” sounds like good coaching advice… but is it always?In this episode, Jeremiah and Coach Natalie discuss the difference between supporting a client and enabling the same patterns that are keeping them stuck.We talk through when a coach should take things slow, when it’s time to push harder, and why real progress often requires getting uncomfortable.Because the goal of coaching isn’t to keep you where you are. It’s to help you change.Timestamps00:00 Meeting Clients Where They Are03:04 The Balancing Act of Coaching05:58 Understanding Client Needs and Goals08:59 The Importance of Meal Plans11:51 Execution Over Macros15:11 Teaching Skills for Success17:51 Capacity for Change in Clients20:54 Strategies for Beginners24:07 Long-Term Client Transformations29:51 Client Readiness for Change32:20 Building Confidence in the Gym35:34 Challenging Comfort Zones39:44 The Importance of Feedback46:44 Coaching Beyond Comfort ZonesLinksApply for Coaching: https://form.typeform.com/to/ubUfJiEu?utm_source=podcastLiving Lean Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/712032Follow Jeremiah on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeremiahbair/Follow Andrea on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andirogersfit/Follow Natalie on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/natalieatswell/Keywordscoaching, client progress, meal plans, nutrition, behavior change, fitness, coaching strategies, client goals, individualized coaching, capacity for change client readiness, gym confidence, feedback, coaching, comfort zone, nutrition, exercise selection, personal training, mindset, client progressTo Apply For Coaching With Our Team: CLICK HERE 📲 Follow Our Team On Instagram:- ELEVATED COACHING SYSTEMS TEAM PAGE- JEREMIAH- ANDREA- NATALIE
