Clients change when
the pattern changes.

Most coaching stalls where the client’s limiting pattern is stronger than their intention.

VIA Frontiers trains practitioners in the same NLP-based methodology used in our executive work: reading the pattern, working with language precisely, and giving the client a repeatable way to interrupt what keeps repeating.

The Bye Bye Black Cat approach gives that work a shared language clients remember — the “black cat” being the belief or habit that follows a person into every room.

Methodology

The Bye Bye Black Cat approach.

Written by Sylvia Fernandes, Bye Bye Black Cat is the book behind the practitioner methodology — a practical route through the limiting patterns people carry into work, leadership and relationships.

  • Name the pattern the client keeps repeating
  • Trace the belief holding it in place
  • Interrupt it with a structured technique
  • Rehearse the replacement behaviour
  • Embed it so the client can repeat it alone
