Description:
From Adversary to Ally focuses on how to coach the inner critic, a common obstacle in coaching practices. No matter what kind of coaching we specialize in, we all encounter that nagging voice inside our heads telling us we’re not measuring up somehow. We feel it firsthand as it stops us from confidently growing our businesses, makes us think we need yet another certification or course, or holds us back from charging our true worth. And it’s not just us—our clients face it too. Whether it’s in their struggles with confidence, battling feelings of being a fraud, or getting stuck in procrastination and confusion.
Despite various tools available, many only provide temporary relief without addressing the root cause. This session delves into an effective and sustainable method to help clients and coaches alike overcome their inner critic.

About Our Speaker:
Paul Boehnke, sought after speaker, author and certified life coach helps millennials and business leaders become more effective by clearing the fog of doubt, self-criticism and overthinking that prevents them from realizing their true purpose.
As a classical musician, Paul Boehnke stumbled on a unique process that not only helped his performances but could easily be applied to taming the negative thoughts of his inner critic. Then he realized this process not only works for him but works for everyone, musician or not.
In his book, Thoughts On Demand: Turn Negative Self-Talk into Unstoppable Confidence, he shares the process that he uses to help clients transform that little voice in their heads that argues for their limitations into a champion of their potential instead.
