282. Prioritizing Your Own Mental Health with Maggie Reyes

Author: Lindsay Dotzlaf March 24, 2026 Duration: 1:05:58

As coaches, we spend so much of our time focusing on the well-being of our clients that it's easy to forget about our own mental health. But what happens when we don't prioritize ourselves?

      

In this episode, my incredible friend, client, and fellow coach Maggie Reyes shares why taking care of our own mental health is essential for both personal and professional success. Maggie opens up about her mental health journey and how prioritizing her own mental well-being has allowed her to show up more fully in her coaching business.

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. You’ll hear specific stories from the coaching room-what worked, what didn’t, and the nuanced decisions behind each session. 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. Tune in for a thoughtful, grounded approach to professional growth that prioritizes practical mastery over more theory.
