Why Learning to Hold Safer Spaces is Still Your Most Important Skill

In the world of online business, we’re often told to focus on niche, funnels, and content. And whilst those areas of your business are important, your ability to hold safer space is the real difference-maker.

In this solo episode, I’m sharing why learning to hold safer space is the most important skill you can develop as a coach, creative or course creator. It’s about building trust, showing cultural sensitivity and becoming a leader who sees and honours the full humanity of your clients.

I talk about:

🎙 What it actually means to hold safer space
 🎙 How power dynamics, race and cultural identity shape coaching relationships
 🎙 The ways harm can occur, even with the best intentions
 🎙 Why REPRESENTED teaches this skill deeply, especially in today’s climate

This episode is a reminder that safer space isn’t something we promise, it’s something we practise, moment by moment, client by client, because inclusion isn’t something you say, it’s something your clients feel. And it begins with how you hold them.
