EPISODE #32 – Coaching, Therapy and Emotional Leadership with Lacey Sites
On this episode of The Marriage Life Coach Podcast, one of my previous coaching clients (and my previous coach), Lacey Sites, shares her experience of being coached, the effect it had on her relationship, and how it led to where she is now.
Lacey is a former therapist who is now a business mentor and success coach for high performing women entrepreneurs. She is the founder of A Lit Up Life and the host of the LITerally podcast. Lacey was my personal coach when I was still doing recruitment, consulting, and transitioning into life coaching. We finished our work together and then this past year she hired me to be her coach.
In the episode, we talk about the differences between coaching and therapy, and how they’re each helpful in their own ways. We also chat about emotional leadership – what it means, and how it transformed Lacey’s relationship with her boyfriend (now fiance).
Join us as we talk about Lacey’s process through marriage life coaching, her transformation, and of course – we have some fun along the way.
