How seamless it was. I’m so afraid that I will get stuck and not sure how to keep the conversation forward.
@@ShevonnePolastre That's a common fear amongst coaches, Shevonne! But don't worry - the more you practice, the more confidence you gain ❤ Just remember to always stay present and curious, and trust your instincts! Thanks for sharing ❤
One of the biggest takes was the definition of freedom. The whole process of the conversation is giving so much clarity. The steps taken ripped to the core. I am playing it over and over again and applying it to help gather the puzzel and slowly piece thoughts and actions together. Thank you so much!
@@MOVINGJOURNEY What a great insight, Ubit! Thanks for sharing ❤
How to stay aligned with the agenda of the person being coached. You have done it so effortlessly.
Hi Ajit! Yes, I am Karina from the video. I still amazed about how you challenge me to go forward and how you support my breakthroughs. I an working day by day in the path we find out during this session. Many thanks for all! Abrazo!
*I am
Hola Karina! We're so grateful for your courage to share your message and insights with our community and allow us to grow with you! We're rooting for you in your new journey ❤❤❤
Hola Karina - thank you for your authenticity. It helps us to be real with our own irrational fears n find real answers
So beautiful so great full for you been able to share this session with us. I was inspired myself and challenged personally but I also learned some techniques for my own practice . Thank you
Hi Karina, I'm in the same process so I felt he was coaching me and I was you 😉
The focus on "what" instead of "how to" is very simple, but yet powerful
Amazing takeaway, Elena! ❤❤❤
Absolutely loved this video!
What resonated with me was, not carrying the burden of ‘our’ or your story. Only carry the experience of what you have learnt. This is very difficult to do, however it’s extremely important.
I want to become a life coach, therefore I am using your teachings to perfect my own shortcomings. Thank you 😊
What a beautiful takeaway, Deni! We're so honored to be contributing to your journey as an upcoming life coach. Thanks for sharing and we're rooting for you ❤
I can recommend you to a man who helped me to get my ex back to me within 48hours
As a coach in training myself, I was fascinated by your interaction because it was not interruption, it wasn’t ‘let me share my experience of that’; it was progressive understanding between you as you partnered together on this stage of her journey.
Such beautiful feedback, Ethna! Thank you for your kind words ❤
Hi dear , would you like a free training to generate leads for your coaching system.
It was nice to here it’s others that have the same thoughts to share!!!
A wonderful example of a coaching session. The segment about trying to figure out the "how-to", before we figure out "what it is" and "why it is" was very powerful. I will continue to try and pick up this internal dialog when trying to identify future outcomes.
Amazing insight, Martin! We're so glad you found this valuable. Thanks for sharing ❤
I absolutely loved this video! Thank you Karina for allowing to post your coaching session, it was really remarkable and refreshing.
Thanks so much for sharing ❤❤❤
Ajit you cannot imagine how much you are helping me in my coaching sessions🙌🙌🙌 thank you so so much!
This makes us so happy, Mar Ian! We're grateful to contribute to your learning journey. Thanks for sharing ❤
I am transitioning my personal branding and found you on youtube by accident yesterday. I even bought your masterclass on Mindvalley. Love your content on coaching. Thank you.
We're so glad you enjoy our content, Herman! Thanks for your kind words ❤
I appreciated watching this video. I liked when Karina got in touch with her past not being so easy,and I felt the fear about going off on her on might have stemmed from that. She is a very confident successful self empowered woman, so I am sure she will find her answers.
Beautiful message, Jessica! Thanks for sharing ❤
Great coaching demo! I really liked the coaching tool you gave to help Karina with her next steps. That was invaluable! Thank you!
We're so happy you found this valuable, Coach Mo! Thanks so much for sharing ❤
Thank you so much for sharing this Ajit. Great job! Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much, Vince! ❤
Bravo, Ajit and Karina! I appreciate the openness, ease and insights from this session. My highlight was the encouragement that we only need to carry the learning experiences from our past and not the burden of those stories. Wishing you the life that truly brings you joy and fulfillment, Karina.
That's a beautiful message to takeaway, Natalie! We're so glad you enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing ❤
The best part for me was when you were honest with her without being harsh. This is an art for a coach to master.
Great takeaway, Jenny! Glad you enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing :)
Had a very impactful WOW moment while watching this viedeo. The universe deliverrs 24/7. Thank you kindly for the work you do. They you and Karina for sharing!
That's amazing, Anthony! We're so glad you enjoyed the video!
I have realised coaching is really concentrating on small details instead of asking grand questions...break it down to small, tiny parts that the client gets a very clear picture of her life...
What a great insight, Maria! Big questions can be great, but going deep and specific will bring clarity to the client as to what they want and how to get there. Thanks for sharing ❤
Thanks for the video...your videos are the best...learnt a lot.
Can you do a video on NLP.
@@CounsellorMariaDCostaGoa We're so happy to serve, Maria ❤ And thanks for the topic suggestion, we'll keep it in mind ;)
Wow. How incredible. I'm in a similar situation as Karina. Same age, same dilemma. I have a corporate job, some financial security, but I want to start my own life coaching practice. That would be the next big step for me. So I've just finished the Coaching Session Planner quests on the Mindvalley platform and somehow ended up here. Thanks Ajit for all the knowledge you are sharing, it's very helpful and encouraging. This one is a gem, particularly for people who are following a path similar to Karina's and also for those who want to start coaching 🙏
We're so glad you resonated with this, Stéphanie! Here's a video that can help you start that transition: ua-cam.com/video/VGOKJ4qR1xo/v-deo.html. Thanks for sharing!
Ajit,
Katrina's story is where I am now.. In three years would like my own coaching practice...
This video helped me create an outline of what my initial coaching session will look like and I really needed this step. The correlation between the curiosity and the breakthrough was an eye-opener. I resonated with the chess and poker analogy: chess is vision and the end result and poker is how you're going to get there. Thanks, again, Ajit, for this clarity to set me up for success in my coaching business.
We're so happy our videos are supporting your journey, Jen! We're rooting for you ❤ Thanks for sharing!
Hi ajit, that was amazing, I could feel your kind warm energy through the video as you was talking to corina. Very good tips and you are very humble when you speak. You actually gave me confidence to follow dreams and conquer my goals, thank you ajit.
We're so glad you enjoyed this video, Richardo! Thank you for your kinds words ❤
@@mindvalleycoach Hehe no problem at all. I look forward to watching a whole lot more of your videos.
Thank you Ajit, and thank you, Karina. Many fabulous nuggets in there that I can adopt in both my own life and for my clients.
Glad you found this valuable, Frankie! Thanks for sharing :)
I am new to coaching and I love the structure that was laid out. You also confirmed some things that are necessary steps that come natural to me. Loved the analogy you used!❤
We're so happy you resonated with this structure, Dre! Thanks for sharing ❤
Rapport was established instantly and coaching presence was very evident
Great observations, Rochelle! Thanks for sharing ❤
"mindset of possibilities" "a game of chess, not the next move but10 moves ahead the end game" great food for thought many thanks A.
Great insights, Nuala! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing ❤
Excellent coaching session..loved it. Very insightful..loved the Analogy. Brilliant
We're so happy you enjoyed it, Mohammed! Thank you so much for your kind words ❤
Phenomenal coaching lesson and lesson in general. Thank you both.
We're so happy you enjoyed it! Thanks for sharing ❤
Thank you for sharing. That's wonderful. Greetings from Guadalajara Jalisco México
Glad you enjoyed it, Hugo! Thanks for sharing :)
Awesome session . I was impressed by how you helped her refine and clarify her vision without forcing to make a decision. She will make that decision when she is ready and it might not be the same decision she believes is the right one at this point. Learned so much from that session.
Beautiful reflection, Mmule! Thanks for sharing ❤
Loved this coaching demonstration! What I loved most is how you as coach interrupted in the right moment with the powerful question that allowed Karina to identify the gap in her thinking and helped her make a progress.
Great catch! Thanks for sharing 💜
Excellent coaching session Ajit. Karina was emotionally connected during the session and she got her breakthrough. Amazing.
Thank you so much, Rahima! We're so glad you enjoyed it ❤
Fantastic session, thank you
So glad you found it valuable, Paul! Thanks for sharing ❤
OMG that was amazing for me, as a person and as a coach starting her business... there were many points to think about it. I loved the "let the Universe take care of the HOW": it is absolutely aligned with my beliefs. I really enjoyed the possibility of seeing how to guide a session, how to interact with a client, and how to let the conversation flow... thank you very much!
Glad you resonated with this! Thanks for sharing :)
This is my first Life Coaching Experience and I learnt a lot. 👍👍👍to you for the way it flowed, shows you are a guru.
Thank you for your kind words, Maureen! We're so happy you enjoyed this video ❤
This session was excellent; thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it, Denise! Thanks for sharing 💙
Thank you, You have helped me to final make decision to transition to what I have been building towards with my studies but scared of new journey that I am about to take.
We're so happy this video was the final push you needed, Nokwanda! We're rooting for you ❤
This was very powerful. The main take away I got was to ask questions that clarify the clients unique context. Listening to what elements for them need reflection.
Great insight, Cheri! Thanks for sharing ❤
Hi very nice I will keep watching thank you god bless you 😊I’m sending you love and prosperity ❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed this, Heidi! Thanks for sharing :)
Wonderful example what a coaching session looks like I found many NLP elements well done👍
I appreciated the long term goal versus the short terms actions to reach that or those goals. Also the hope that you should maintain in your success through it and taking into account that everything will be in place to help you out. It is helpful to stay focus and positive. Thank you.
That's a great highlight, Frederique! Thanks for sharing ❤
I really enjoyed this Ajit- Thanks so much.
We're so happy you did, Modupe! Thanks for sharing ❤
I found out how to put your client at ease and keep him/her interested and curious. Thank you.
Great insight, Bimal! Thanks for sharing ❤
Such a wonderful session Coach Ajit! My biggest highlight was the understanding that one´s fears and doubts come from the older version of yourself. From the lessons, you have already learned. And I loved the Chess-Poker tool! Thank you😃😍
Great takeaways, Maria! Thanks for sharing ❤
The video was very helpful for me.I particularly like the Tool: Chess and Poker analogy, I will try to use it in my own life. Thank you for sharing
That's a great takeaway, Marianne! And perfect timing to reflect on it for welcoming 2022. Thanks for sharing ❤
Thank you Ajit, I learned a lot from this session
We're happy you found it valuable! Thanks for sharing :)
So... I think a coaching session with Ajit is quite an experience. Your energy and warmth are wonderful. I personally found very interesting that there were moments of explicit interpretation and statements about how to look at things differently, as opposed to 'playing back' what had been said and looking for further insights from the client. A point where I saw this happening is when you say that 'keeping the job or not keeping the job is not the question'. At first it sounded to me like a decision made by the coach, especially when saying "quitting the job shouldn't be the objective". As a coach I never use these expressions because it'd feel like I'm telling them what is right. However, I see how and why you use it, and it goes with an actively supporting, lifting style of coaching. Something that has been limited in my coaching education. Finally, there is a point where I'd have jumped asking further, and was instead put aside, so I'd like a comment from you: around the minute 16, there is this great question about what she really feels when she thinks of quitting now, apart from the financial uncertainty (which is already clearly not the point), and she answers referring to the fact that one voice tells her she has still much to do, that she would leave things unfinished, while another says "what? why?".. there, I'd have explored further. The arguments from both voices, what/who is behind them. Your choice was to say that the financial problem is not the issue and to describe the typical day. To me, it sounded like an interruption of the flow and a direction given by the coach. But I guess it's a matter of choice points....? Thanks very much for this session, it really got me thinking. And may I add something trivial? :O) Is it me or does Ajit look a lot like John Legend?? 🙂
about John Legend..exactly my thoughts 😊
Amazing session Ajit! Lied the example of Chess vs Cards game. Thanks for sharing this!
Great takeaway, Dhritiman! Thanks for sharing ❤
thank you brother
Glad you resonated with this 💜
I am very new to life coaching.This video is very helpful. thank you so much.
Welcome to the tribe, Joy! We're so happy our videos are valuable for your journey. Thanks for sharing ❤
This was so helpful! Thank you 😊
We're glad it was, Lexie! Thanks for sharing :)
The video was very helpful for me.I particularly like the Tool: Chess and Poker analogy and intend to use this in future coaching sessions.Thanks!
That's a great tool indeed! We're so glad you found this valuable. Thanks for sharing, Andrew! ❤

Love this demonstration. Ive been struggling with if this is what I'll like to do because I have friends and family always calling for health and life advice but I'm not very talkative.
So glad you resonated with this! Thanks for sharing 💜
Good points 👍🏻
So glad you found this video valuable, Asmaa! Thanks for sharing ❤
Hi Ajit am a up and coming coach your videos is a big help for me.❤❤❤
We're so happy our channel is helping you, Allison! Keep up the great work :)
very insightful
So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for sharing
Dear Ajith, This coaching session break up really made me reinforced with basic principle questions as a beginner.
in Coaching career. Thank you for sharing it.
We're happy you found it valuable! Thanks for sharing :)
Lovely session Ajit !
So glad you enjoyed it, Krishwan! Thanks for sharing :)
@@mindvalleycoach absolutely!
So good and just ordered a book
That's great, Mike! ;)
The biggest insight I had was to get people to gain clarity of the future, instead of throwing every tool I ever learned or had success with at them.
Great takeaway! Tools are great when used properly. Thanks for sharing :)
Hi Ajit you’ve helped me on this session.
We're so happy you resonated with it! ❤
Ajit is the best.👍
❤❤❤
Ajit - it seems like most coaching examples focus on the initial meeting with clients - how they see their future, creating a game plan, etc. Do you have example video's of coaching session # 6 or 16? How do they differ in your format from session #1?
Great question, Burt! Unfortunately, we don't currently have any coaching demonstrations that are farther along in the coaching journey, but we do have a video explaining how sessions should evolve that can answer your question. Watch it here: ua-cam.com/video/cMoUmVdmEvg/v-deo.html. Let us know if it helps! ❤
I appreciated you giving your client food for thought, yet allowing her the room to decide. But, the chess analogy as a parting gift in my opinion will definitely have her giving you a call back. Congratulations message received 😃
Thanks for your kind words! Glad you resonated with this :)
Ajit, This video is really good. I heard the podcast - a break down on youtube 1 hour would be amazing 🙂. I feel those who are interested ( like I am :-) ) would love to watch on
Thank you for the input, Kamalini! We're so glad you enjoyed this breakdown (and more to come!) ❤❤
Wit due respects Coach Ajith, The ideal coaching question would have been asking the client for meaning of security. Asking if it is "financial secuirty" comes across as a leading question.
That's a great question to ask, Aruna! There's no right or wrong approach, but asking first about security could've been a great way to start that conversation as well. Thanks for sharing ❤
he didn't attend a coaching program or coaching certificate institute or earn his credential in coaching.
How does that life feels like and or look like for you?, that's the highlight for me as it make you define the life you're looking forward to.
Amazing takeaway, Portia! ❤
Frikking BRILLIANT
Thanks for sharing, Anthony!
Good job mentioning that most viewers aren't subscribed, funny thing.. I wasn't even a subscriber until you mentioned it.
Bringing in the community ❤❤❤
It’s interesting to observe this! But I didn’t catch why you didn’t ask her what was the trigger or specific occasion which made her decide to move from corporation? Is it too hold or you didn’t see the value or why?
Thank you, Ajit, for this fantastic video! At the beginning you talk about a form that Karina submitted before the session. May I ask for a template that you suggest, please?
So glad you enjoyed this video :) Unfortunately, we don't have that particular form as it was used with the sole purpose of applying for this coaching demonstration. However, if you're looking for an intake form for new clients, you can download our template here: www.evercoach.com/wp-content/uploads/Coaching-Form-Template-by-Evercoach.pdf. And you can find more coaching templates here: www.evercoach.com/coaching-templates. We hope that's what you were looking for :)
@@mindvalleycoach you're fantastic! Thank you very much 😊
You're most welcome,@@stefaniasarga! ;)
I liked the poker and card game analogy. However, how do you close? Do you leave it to them to book another session? Or do you say, do you want to book another session now?
Great question, Cynthia! It depends on where you're at with the client. Coach Ajit shared this analogy with Karina as a final thought she could simmer on after this conversation, as it was a one-off free demonstration. We always encourage coaches to enroll clients on packages instead of single coaching sessions, because then you have more time and commitment to actually take them through a journey and achieve the result they are looking for. So in those cases, you could use this analogy during a free call before enrolling a new client so they can think about what is the outcome they want to achieve, or during the coaching contract in any session where it is relevant for the next step in the conversation. We hope that answers your question!
The chess/poker analogy was a nugget
Great find! ;)
With due respect, I believe the "fixer" came out during this session - I feel that you were leading her to a certain outcome that you wanted to hear . I'd love to see more client led discovery. And sometimes you posted more than one question at a time , would have been better you asked ,pause and wait for her to answer.
Thanks for sharing, Peggy! We're all here to learn and grow, and watching demonstrations like this one can help us identify what we resonate with and what we don't. ❤
I see it in the exact same way. It was a coach-led conversation, with statements on his part of what “the point here is” or is not, and what is right and what is wrong (“quitting the job shouldn’t be the objective”…. Shouldn’t?). Maybe it’s what the client needed, but honestly, she being a successful professional with quite some experience, I’d have given her full trust in finding her own “what the objective here is” and consequent solutions.
did you, yourself, get credentialed or certified in coaching?
Hi, thanks for sharing knowledge for us.
I want to learn how to start podcast.
I want to start my life as a coach beauty business coaching.
Ki d’y guide me
Great question! We recommend checking out our Free Masterclass on how to start business coaching. You can sign up here: shor.by/ylhb. Thanks for asking 💜
Hi Ajit . I would like to know from you.Do you think if you want to work as a full-time coach or build your business you have to work on only specific subjects like Finance issues or Personal development?
Hi Mateus! Could you please clarify your question? Are you referring to coaching niches - that, as a coach, you can only build a coaching business for clients who are looking for financial or personal development?
A lot of this is v similar to how to do sales
Interesting thought! Thanks for sharing, Gabrial!
May I ask the reason you don't sustain eye contact during your coaching session?
Hi Smarie! If you are referring to the small video of Ajit on the bottom left corner, that's the recording of Ajit watching the recording of his coaching session with Karina (as you can see throughout the video, when he's coaching Karina he's wearing a yellow cap) and he is looking down at the recording because he's watching it from a different screen from the one he is recording to the camera. Let us know if that cleared it up for you! :)
Might the client feel insulted if they SAY (like this client did) that it’s FINANCIAL resources they are talking about, and we ask AGAIN?
I’d feel like the coach wasn’t listening. 😢
It really depends on the context of the conversation and how you phrase your questions. It could be a possibility that the client's answer was too vague, and we want to dig deeper. And if you feel the client might feel insulted, you can take some time to explain or try a different question. Thanks for asking!
What a scam. And, what do you charge for simply talking to someone?
Hi Swami! We're sad you feel that way. Maybe you're not clear on what coaching is and how it's more than just a simple conversation. We recommend watching this video: ua-cam.com/video/jIVZDxFpFrI/v-deo.html
Hi Ajit -some feedback / why do you have this very inauthentic accent - it is very misplaced and irritating as well . No idea why you wear a Hat / A hat if you should know is worn to save you from the hot sun - when you are OUTDOORS - so why would you wear one in a studio - on a coaching call to audiences or your client . Comments on many of your videos are turned off - you are probably good as a financial support in a company / but as a coach or in front of the camera you have no personality or authencity to charm the listeners. Please invest in a coach to help you to come across more honest - it is impossible to connect with your audience .
Hi Cleo! We're not sure what you mean with "inauthentic accent" (as Coach Ajit is Indian) and the real issue with the hat? But we respect your opinion if you don't resonate with Coach Ajit's coaching and teaching style. Here are some coaching demonstrations by other Master Coaches, maybe you resonate with one of their styles better: ua-cam.com/play/PLLz6vjpxFbXjbUJ9ZgZXpmjgWmqXzWNEJ.html.
I would be happy to reply if there is a link provided and you truly value feedback . We welcome you being Indian - they are some of the most amazing people - you have several on the mindvalley platform and I respect and resonate with them too . If you had an native Indian accent it would have been very welcome but it is very clear that you do not soeak in your original accent and the accent which you put in comes accross as inauthentic and fake . Any accent doesn’t make you better or worse than anyone else it just makes you different . I have spoken with a couple if other like minded people who felt the same way about Ajit s accent and his misplaced hat . People first buy you and then they can buy your course or what you say . Your personality must work in your favour if you want people to listen to you or resonate with you . It is all about evoking trust and connection .
All the same thank you for sharing the links to for the other coaching styles. Much appreciated . Do hope you can take the feedback as an opportunity to upgrade a couple of areas . Cheers . Have a good day
