They discuss what is meant by intuition and inner wisdom, how to access it and how to harness it whilst working with clients. Maria shares the significance of being present with clients, trusting one’s intuitions and the concept of the “invisible coach.” She emphasizes the importance of self-awareness in cultivating intuition and the value of reflective practices for deeper insights. Maria explains the difference between ego-driven thoughts and heart-centred intuition, sharing how silence allows her to access her heart, rather than her head. By fostering presence and trusting their instincts, coaches can access profound insights that guide transformative conversations, enriching their practice and helping clients achieve meaningful breakthroughs. You will learn: · What inner wisdom and intuition are · The link between presence and inner wisdom · How a coach can develop intuition "My passion is really helping people to remind them of their inner wisdom, their intuition, how to find it, how to trust in it more, and the gateway to that is presence."
