Susan Britton MCC explains that a coach's most important tool is their own presence and self-awareness. When you're attuned to your intuition and mental state, you can offer exactly what your client needs, even when the conversation goes somewhere unexpected.
The most important tool that you have as a coach is yourself. Yeah, it's called self as instrument, meaning you are able to bring exactly the tool that is needed for whatever your client is experiencing, whatever, wherever the conversation is going. If you are in tune with yourself, if you know what your intuitions are telling you, what your mind is telling you— Hello Kitty, have you come to talk to me? Hello darling, what's the matter? Meow! Hello! You will be able to manage anything that comes your way, even kitties in the middle of your videos.
