Thought interruption is a coaching trick that helps you pause and question those default thoughts. If you find yourself spiraling in negative thoughts that aren't serving you, but they happen so often that they feel like the universal truth, this is the simple redirection you can practice that will change your entire life.

 

Learn what the trick of thought interruption entails and a specific example of it in practice. Hear why it's worth starting with a thought that doesn't bring up a ton of heavy emotion, and how, once you master this skill, you'll be able to use it with your clients in your coaching sessions.

There’s a gap between learning the theory of coaching and actually sitting with a client in a real, messy session. Mastering Coaching Skills lives in that space. Hosted by life coach Lindsay Dotzlaf, this podcast moves beyond certifications and coursework to focus on the practical, often unspoken, abilities that define great coaches. Lindsay draws from her own experiences to discuss how to navigate tricky client conversations, build genuine confidence, and apply techniques in ways that feel authentic.

It’s for coaches who are done just studying and are ready to deepen their craft through actionable reflection. Each episode feels like a candid mentorship chat, offering tangible advice you can use immediately. If you’re building a coaching practice in the business, entrepreneurship, or personal development fields, this podcast serves as a steady resource for honing the real-world skills that truly make a difference for your clients.
