In a Nutshell

1. Without facilitation, members won’t get the support they need to get the promised result of the cohort-based course
2. The number one thing a facilitator must do is create a safe environment where members feel at liberty to share their struggles vulnerably and to seek help from the facilitator and other members
3. To create a space where members feel free to voice their struggles…
   1. Start by opening up about how you used to share the same struggle
   2. Center the group coaching conversations around solving their problems
   3. Encourage members to ask questions inside the community
   4. Know your members well enough to tag them into conversations they can help with
   5. Trust the principle of reciprocity. If a member receives from another member, they’ll want to pay it forward
