## Resource

Have you ever felt frustrated by the belief that coaching competencies limit your freedom or creativity? In this episode of the Empower World Coaching and Leadership Podcast, Jeanine and Marie explore the challenge many coaches face when they get stuck resisting structure - and how this resistance can actually reveal deeper personal work to be done. They share stories and insights that show why the ICF and other coaching bodies' competencies aren't a box-ticking exercise, but a framework that supports flexibility, authenticity, and growth. Whether you're a new or experienced coach, this episode will help you trust the process and discover how resistance can be the gateway to mastery.
