Are you a coach, a leader, a mentor or a supervisor?
Are you working to help people struggling or experiencing strong emotions?
Absorbing them and making them our own might happen… if we do not keep the right distance!
Training your empathy muscle is crucial to offer meaningful support to people that are going through a lot!
Here are a few signs that you might be taking too much on yourself:
❌ You feel FOR them, instead of feeling WITH them – listen to Brenè Brown’s the Power of Vulnerability for more
❌ Their emotions do not leave you after the session – just like in the video
❌ You are too invested in their success
❌ You work harder than they do
❌ They depend on you
❌ You can’t leave them because you need to save them.
You are invited to join our FREE ‘Coaching Dojo’ to practice in a safe space and get feedback on your skills from an ICF MCC certified mentor coach.
