Hello! You haven’t heard from us for a while, as our respective energy has been pulled down different roads. We wanted to record a farewell episode to conclude this ongoing and much-enjoyed conversation.And we are returning full-circle! Our first episode was about The Rise of the Coachfluencer - where lifestyle content, product placement, and aspirational horseshit were masquerading as coaching. In this episode, we address the fall of so many characters from the coachfluencer pyramid.As we see more and more “guru's” being named in The Files, being sued, or hanging up their shingle, we chat about what this means for our work, our industry and for us as practitioners. Spoiler: it’s really bloody hopeful.Thank you for listening - we appreciate spending time with you, we are always cheering you on.Lianne, Bridgette, + Sas xxResources:Brene Brown NYT interview This is a public episode.

Sas leads our conversation about Artificial Intelligence and the future of Coaching. We reflect on what this technological shift might mean for human connection, professional identity, and how we make sense of ourselves and each other through the lens of coaching.Both sas and Bridget have built custom GPTs, and Bridget is leading the way in terms of how AI can enhance and complement coaching.Rather than presenting AI as something to fear or blindly adopt, our aim is to open up the conversation for curiosity, nuance, and possibility. Coaches are invited to consider how AI might reshape not just the industry, but their own practices — whether that’s in creating content, supporting clients, or redefining what it means to hold a human conversation in a tech-saturated world.For You to Reflect On* How are you feeling about AI right now - excited, cautious, overwhelmed, curious?* Where do you see opportunities for AI to support your coaching practice, and where do you want to draw clear boundaries?* What values or principles do you want to hold onto as this technology continues to evolve?Rate, Review, and Subscribe!If you enjoy these conversations, please do offer a review on Apple podcasts and subscribe wherever you listen in.

Lianne hosts us to chat about coaching as an aspect of the feminine principle – Sophiac wisdom – part of what has been devalued and lost in our wider culture.We explore both where we are – with women over-represented as coaches, but under-represented in leadership and visibility in our industry. And the limits of working with individuals in a time of systemic change.We also explore the alternatives as the old structures begin to collapse – ideas of reciprocity, communal care, and the rhythms of nature.Enjoy!  📺 Watch on YouTube and share your thoughts in the comments!   Got a question for the OG’s? If you have a question about your coaching practice, we’d love to help.

A return to our spicy roots! One of our founding ideals is to equip coaches and travellers in the self-help and coaching worlds, to be discerning. There IS snake oil and problematic practices that seek to exploit the vulnerabilities of this work.Bridgette hosts this discussion prompted by the recent death of James Arthur Ray, who rose to prominence in The Secret and was then convicted of negligent homicide after three people died at a sweatlodge ritual he ran. We start with Ray, and dive into other 'gurus' in the self-help world, what to look out for, and what you will never see ethical practitioners do or say. 📺 Watch on YouTube and share your thoughts in the comments! Got a question for the OG’s?If you have a question about your coaching practice, we’d love to help.
