Yes — high-touch support is amazing. But long-term retention is built when clients feel ownership over their wins. Here’s what that looks like: ✅ Clients trust their OWN decision-making ✅ They build resilience (and don’t ghost when things get hard) ✅ They see their results as theirs — not just a reflection of your coaching Your job isn’t to be the hero.Your job is to make THEM the hero of their own story. 🦸♀️ Here are 3 simple shifts to empower your clients more deeply: 1️⃣ Flip the Question Instead of instantly giving advice, ask: 💡“What do you think is the next best step?” 💡 “What’s your gut telling you here?” 2️⃣ Normalize the Dip Remind them that struggle, doubt, and slow patches are NORMAL—this keeps them engaged through the hard parts. 3️⃣ Celebrate Process, Not Just Outcomes When they show up consistently, take messy action, or have mindset shifts—highlight that even before the big wins show up. 🔥 Reflection Q for you: How do YOU balance support vs empowerment in your coaching or business? 👇 Drop your thoughts below!
