Greetings from a Practitioner Looking to Expand His Map
Hi everyone, my name is Franz. I'm a personal trainer and behavioral change coach, and I have been doing NLP for a few years now. Technically I started years ago, however I did not know what my coach was teaching me was NLP. Originally I was using it for sales, then dating, and when I finally realized where the techniques were coming from, I dove deep into its therapeutic origins, which changed my life. I know that's overused, but it helped me rebuild my business, get out of a suicidal depression, and find the love of my life. During that period I tried multiple things: spirituality, religion, manifesting, traditional therapy, and different change work models, and none of them worked for me. By "worked for me" I mean nothing in my internal map was changing, therefore my external reality was staying the same. It wasn't until I got an NLP coach and learned NLP myself that my mindset finally changed and my reality followed suit. The outcome I'm looking to get from joining this community is to exchange knowledge with other experienced coaches and to help those who are where I was a few years back.
