Thank you for this video. I learnt so much, not just to look for underlying themes but also how to put it forward to the client while giving them the space to decide whether it applies or not. Lastly, to be ok if isn't correct. Elimination is also a part of the process 😅❤
You have just summed up so nicely "Partnership" and yes, it's so important to share your noticings, and still give the client space to decide if it applies or not. Sometimes having clarity around what something isn't is just as important! Thank you for this great observation @charulvyas8282
I sometimes think that learning to trust ourselves and also ask questions about what is showing up as we listen, is a simple but hard developmental step... at least, it was for me :)
@@sydneysageresourcequeen That's an excellent question!!! What might you do to support the client in narrowing down what is important? Remember, the underlying theme is to inform your curiosity. What might be a question that would test your hypothesis and invite the client to name what might be going on? :)
I found your channel yesterday and I've been busy binge watching since 😂! A coaching bk I once read listed more than 2 dozen themes. But I find it more helpful to have just a few in mind and I think these 7 cover a lot. I might add Belonging/Inclusion, although this could arguably fit under Appreciation and/or Acknowledgment. Ok, back to the binge (and note taking 🖋 😅). Thank you, Lyssa.
@@LyssadeHartI'm genuinely enjoying engaging and I know leaving comments helps a channel. But I also know it gives you more work😅! Maybe I'll just leave emojis under some of the vids. #keener😂
Thank you again for another informative and useful video! When the client acknowledges that it is indeed "control" that is the underlying theme, what usually is the best question to ask or direction to take after surfacing that?
You're welcome, Anna! I'm delighted you found it useful. I have more coaching resources (free) available on my website. lyssadehart.podia.com/ Reach out anytime you have questions. ❤️
@@LyssadeHart, thanks for your support) all the materials you post are excellent; I guess you should charge for them😂I actually have a question - recently, I had a Client who said that they've been procrastinating for years. On the one hand, they know the influence of procrastination and how it decreases the quality of life. On the other hand, they can't get themselves to do it anyway. Procrastination both at work and on personal tasks. Could you please share what hidden themes you've discovered while working with clients on this topic? Cause it's definitely now about a good-looking schedule🙃
@@asonnette LOL those good looking schedules that no one follows through on are exceptionally pretty, but not very productive. :) My first thought is what does the procrastination do for the client? Everything we do or don't do has some purpose. Also, in the Very Full Plate coaching demo, procrastination what the topic there as well. You might go watch that coaching demo and let me know what you notice. th-cam.com/video/n1mXeWe7g5E/w-d-xo.html
First, I LOVE GOTTMAN. I trained up to Level Two with his and Julie's work. Also, Markman and Gottman worked together in their early days, but they took different roads at some point. Regardless of that bit of back story, understanding the 4 Horsemen is vitally useful and important in relationship work and can inform our curiosity. Awareness of Gottman's ideas of Turning Toward, Away, and Against is super helpful. And, understanding Markman's ideas about the often underlying themes that show up in difficult situations or conversations is very useful too. Both ways of looking are important. Also, when looking at linguistics in general around Metaphors, there is a large body of work on Source/Target, which also fits within these other theories. We are talking about X but the conceptual meaning is Y. I believe it can be very useful for a coach to listen for these underlying themes, not to assume they are right, but to use the awareness to craft curious questions and test hypotheses. :) I hope this is helpful.
Thanks for sharing that you see both schools as making important contributions. I can see how being aware of themes could be valuable. I wasn’t so clear about Source/Target but perhaps later I’ll look into that material. Meanwhile, thank you for helping me with my personal & professional ongoing growth. 😅
@@kayleep3329 The source/target is something I cover in my Coaching with the Power of Metaphors program. :) If you're ever interested in that, let me know.

Love the self-trust part of this video. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.

This video is very helpful at showing how to really connect with the “who.” Thank you.
Yes!!! I think we often get so focused on the "what" we miss the "who"! Thank you for that observation :)
Hello Lyssa! Your videos are super helpful! Thank you for putting these up! Really helps! I'm a PCC coach and these answer a lot of my questions.
Wonderful to hear!! These themes are so helpful to listen for in conversations. Happy Coaching @SunilSoni-vo1fr
This was super useful for helping my clients! Thank you!
Great to hear :) And, you are very welcome.
@@LyssadeHart (: what might we do next once we help our client narrow down the underlying theme?

Hi @icecandy1882, I think it depends so much on the client. What do they want to do with the awareness? I guess that is my next question. :)
@@LyssadeHart thanks for sharing your insight. Wouldn't have thought of asking that question immediately.
@@Icecandy1882 That isn't the only choice point, it's just one. :)
wow! thanks! very helpful

I’m more familiar w the Gottman relationship work. How do you find these two approaches compare? Thanks for another meaningful video! 🥰
