Mindvalley Certified Life Coach

It is a MUST to go through if you WANT to EXCEL in your Coaching business and be at the TOP of your game!

Quick summary

Despite years of coaching experience, Souvendra struggled with imposter syndrome when working with C-level clients. The certification transformed their self-doubt into confidence, refined their listening skills, and validated that they were already on the right track as a coach.

I joined Mindvalley as a member a couple of years ago. I have been a Certified Coach with another institution and have been coaching for a couple of years now. But, I did feel the imposter syndrome many times, not feeling qualified enough to coach clients, especially when they came from the C-Level, despite getting very good feedback from those same customers. I did feel that I was lacking something. Then the opportunity to join MV Certified Life Coach came. I could not take it before because of financial obstacles, but this time around too, life was not easy, but I took the decision to do it and made sure I find the investment, even if it meant sacrificing other things.

Then, I started the course. The weekly sessions were a blessing as they gave us the opportunity to meet with our amazing Coach, Johanna, and also go into the coaching pod sessions with our other friends/coaches. and then, the MAGIC happened - the course was amazing in the sense that it gave me the CONFIDENCE and TRUST in myself that I was on the right track, doing the right things with my clients. It was a HUGE HUGE endorsement that cured my imposter syndrome problem. It also gave me the opportunity to test myself through 5 assessments which I passed on the first attempt itself. Moreover, the coaching pods gave me the opportunity to CORRECT a couple of things, like LISTENING more rather than 'advising', and giving solutions right away. The practice gave me more room and time to create that HABIT that makes a great Coach - LISTEN, listen intentionally, and be PRESENT!

Today, I graduate with the knowledge that I am a good Coach, and that I can help more people out there by practicing what I have learned during these 16 sessions, especially about being FULLY PRESENT and listening with intent.

I loved every bit of this Coaching Certification and I would proudly recommend it to EVERY COACH on Planet Earth - It is a MUST to go through if you WANT to EXCEL in your Coaching business and be at the TOP of your game - Ravin S. Papiah
