Summary
In this episode of the SOVEREIGN Magazine® Podcast , Nicole George reconnects with Chris Melville, SOVEREIGN Magazine®'s In-House Coach to discuss the May Full Moon issue on Transformation and Chris’s article, “I’m Not Who I Was When I Started.” Chris shares that transformation in coaching is a co-created relationship that changes both client and coach, describing how experience builds stronger observational and “soft” skills and leads to deeper, easier results. They explore shifting language from “fixing” to “invitation,” emphasizing integration and authenticity over performance. Chris explains she doesn’t work with clients in victim mindset, suggesting practices like gratitude to begin rewiring toward possibility, and outlines using small behavioral changes to build confidence before addressing deeper beliefs. 00:00 Trigger Warning 00:22 Welcome to Sovereign 01:06 Meet Coach Chris 01:52 Transformation Is Co-Created 04:04 Growing Through Clients 05:00 Ego Check and Feedback 06:31 From Fixing to Invitation 07:41 Who Is Ready for Coaching 10:23 Claiming Your Identity 11:10 Baby Steps to Change 13:08 Connect and Closing Connect with Chris Melville Email Instagram Chris's Private Coaching Community Producer’s credits: Nicole George - Podcast Host | CEO/Founder SOVEREIGN Magazine® | Editor-in-Chief Ariane Lim - Podcast Producer + Engineer Sara Wagle - Audio Efficiency & Flow Manager Latest Issue: Click here Become a Columnist: learn more here .
