The Catholic Coaching Podcast
When we encountered New Age philosophies in Life Coaching that ran counter to our Christian beliefs, we decided to take the best practices of Life Coaching and infuse them with the rich traditions of our Catholic Faith. We're Matt and Erin Ingold, Catholic coaches and the founders of Metanoia Catholic, our Catholic Life Coaching Company. Join us as we share practical coaching tips to being transformed by the renewing of your mind so that you can be free to discover and choose your greatest calling in life.

308. Coaching a Melancholic: How to Overcome Perfectionism & Overthinking
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Welcome back to The Catholic Coaching Podcast with Matt and Erin!
In this episode, we’re continuing our live demonstration series on integrating temperaments with mindset coaching! Erin takes the coach’s chair to walk Matt—our "token Melancholic" for the day—through a live, unscripted Causal Temperament & Mindset Coaching session.
If you’ve ever found yourself paralyzed by perfectionism, stuck overthinking data or goals, or delaying action because you feel like your strategy has to be 100% perfect right out of the gate, this episode is for you.
Watch how Erin uses our signature 4-step process—Name, Claim, Tame, and Aim—and the Reason Cycle to help Matt catch harsh perfectionistic thought patterns, reframe the journey as a learning process, and embrace his identity as a "childlike entrepreneur."
What you’ll learn in this episode:
• Live Demo: Coaching a Melancholic through goal resistance & overthinking
• The 4-Step Framework: Name, Claim, Tame, and Aim in action
• How perfectionism and the desire for instant results sabotage progress
• The power of shifting from "harsh standards" to a curious "student" mindset
• How identity beliefs transform behavior from the inside out
Whether you’re a coach wanting to refine your mindset process or someone looking to break free from perfectionism and overthinking, hit play to see how grace and mindset tools bring true peace!
