Political events leading up to, and following the results of, the November, 2016 election have affected patients in psychotherapy as well as clients working with executive coaches. This article follows developments in coaching work with one male, middle‐aged, highly successful but “interpersonally challenged” client that are traceable to the client's reactions to the election and to the president himself.
