Episodes
Overcoming Coaching Panic
Have you ever felt your mind go blank in a coaching session and wondered what you are supposed to do next? We explore the moments coaches can experience as panic: a client arrives with an unexpected goal, shares something difficult, asks what we would do, or sits in silence while we search for the perfect question. We reflect on how these moments can show up as anxiety, uncertainty, shock or feeli
To Use Coaching Models or Not
When does a coaching model help us stay present with a client, and when does it start to get in the way? In this episode, we explore the relationship between coaching models, confidence and the conversations our clients need. Drawing on our experiences as coaches and coach educators, we discuss why coaching frameworks can be so reassuring when we are starting out. Clients rarely arrive with a neat
Finding Your Purpose Through Coaching
What if finding your purpose is less about discovering one perfect career and more about understanding what makes you feel alive? People often come to coaching at a crossroads. From the outside, life may look successful: a career is progressing, responsibilities are being met, and there is no obvious reason to change course. Yet there can be a persistent feeling that something is missing. In this
Why Every Coach needs Supervision
Who supports the coach when a client conversation stays with them long after the session has ended? In this episode, we explore why every coach needs supervision and why it is far more than a professional requirement. Every coaching conversation brings together different histories, identities, beliefs and emotional experiences. As coaches, we carry our own stories into the room too. Supervision gi
Differences Between Coaching and Coaching Supervision
What changes when the person sitting in front of you is not a coachee, but another coach? In this episode, we explore the difference between coaching and coaching supervision.

How to Become A Master Accredited Coach
What does becoming a master-level coach actually involve, and is the gap between where you are today and coaching mastery as large as it can sometimes feel?

Whether you are an experienced coach considering your next accreditation or at the beginning of you
How To Unlock Your Coaching Potential
What if the biggest limitation on your coaching potential is not the number of models you know, but the parts of yourself you have yet to explore? In this episode, we talk about what it really means to unlock your potential as a coach, leader or manager. Developing coaching skills certainly involves learning and experience, but we explore why deeper growth often starts with an internal commitment
Coach the Person not the Problem
What if the problem your client brings to coaching is not actually the thing that needs coaching? In this episode, we explore what it really means to coach the person rather than becoming absorbed by the presenting issue. A client might arrive wanting help with time management, delegation, boundaries or another practical challenge, but if the solution were purely about strategies and actions, ther
Coaching and Client Results
What happens when a client does not achieve the results they expected from coaching, and how much responsibility should the coach carry? Clients invest time, money, trust and emotional energy into coaching because they want something to change. Yet there is an important contradiction at the heart of coaching: clients seek results, but coaches cannot guarantee them. In this episode, we explore wher
Ten Questions to Open Coaching Conversations
What becomes possible when the first question in a coaching session helps a client arrive more fully? The way we open a coaching conversation matters because it can shape where a client places their attention, how present they become and what they feel able to explore. Yet it is easy to fall into familiar habits and rely on the same dependable opener without considering whether it is right for the
Coaching as a Retirement Strategy
What if retirement was not the end of your working life, but the beginning of a more meaningful way to contribute?

In this episode, we explore coaching as
How Quickly can I Train as a Coach?
How quickly can you train as a coach without compromising the quality, depth and credibility of your learning? It is one of the questions we are asked most often by people considering coach training.

Many people have been thinking about becoming a coach for several year
How is Executive Coaching Different?
What changes when the person being coached is responsible not only for their own performance, but also for the direction, culture and future of an entire organisation? Executive coaching uses the same core coaching competencies as other forms of coaching, but the context is often more complex. Senior leaders may be navigating organisational change, board relationships, stakeholder pressures and st
How to Coach Boundaries
What happens when a coaching client does not realise that the frustration, resentment or overwhelm they are carrying is actually pointing towards a boundary that has been crossed? In this episode of The Coaching Crowd Podcast, we explore how to coach boundaries in a way that feels practical, ethical and deeply human.

The Coaching Advantage
This episode explores a powerful question at the heart of coaching: what if its real advantage is not simply what you do, but who you become?

Is Neutrality Toxic in Coaching?
Is staying neutral as a coach always the right thing to do, or can it quietly cause more harm than good?
