Have you considered becoming a coach or learn the skills of coaching? I have failed to understand what coaching is and feels like until I experienced it!! Does that resonate? I decided to change my career once I experienced it. Why? Because, my coach partnered with me in a way that I managed to turn my life around 180 degrees. It was powerful then and I still find it incredibly effective. That's why I still have a coach. Come and join me at the International Coaching Week this year starting on Monday 11th May. I am doing a demo using the strength approach and would love to connect with you then. See the details in the post below.
Most people don’t struggle with coaching because they lack skill. They struggle because they’ve never actually experienced what coaching looks like in practice. Reading about coaching is one thing. Understanding it from the outside is another. But clarity usually begins when you experience it directly. During International Coaching Week, we’re hosting a series of live sessions designed to help you explore coaching in practice and what it could mean for you. This series is shaped by a diverse group of experienced coaches from our community, bringing different perspectives into the conversation.

I truly believe you can’t fully understand the impact of coaching until you experience it for yourself. Even while studying coaching, the real value comes from putting it into practice. It’s through those real conversations, reflections, and moments of growth that the true essence of coaching becomes clear. Learning gives you the framework — but experience is what brings it to life.

Experiencing it is something else entirely. That’s often where clarity begins. We’ll be exploring this during International Coaching Week.

This is something I come back to regularly in my own thinking about what coaching should look like. Elena Aguilar names something that quietly derails a lot of coaching conversations: the coach's goal is not to prove they saw something or noticed something. It's to help the other person develop perspective about what's happening in their world. That's a reframe worth sitting with for anyone who leads coaching work in schools.

It’s International Coaching week! As an organisation that strongly believes in the power and value of coaching, we’ll be posting a few thoughts on coaching every day this week. #ICW2026 #Coaching
A Useful Analogy for Coaching... At the start of International Coaching Week, we wanted to reflect on the fantastic new insights and perspectives that coaching often brings to clients: On many occasions, coaching can be like turning on a lamp in a room you thought you knew really well…. Suddenly you see: ✔️ Corners you’ve never explored ✔️ Space you didn’t realise you had ✔️ Paths you didn’t know were open ✔️ How it might look to others All as a result of a great coaching conversation…. International Coaching Week is the perfect reminder that you don’t need a new room — you just need better light. #ICW2026 #CoachingForGrowth #Clarity

Had a engaging conversation during my presentation “Integrating #VisualMetaphors in #Coaching” at the Center for Excellence in Coaching and Mentoring Quarterly Development Session at the Cleveland Clinic. We explored how visual metaphors can deepen coaching conversations, encourage perspective shifts, and create meaningful insights beyond verbal-only coaching. Participants experienced the 4-step Points of You® process and reflected on the science and impact of visual metaphor in coaching. I am very pleased with the interest in this topic. Thanks to CECM for the opportunity to share this creative coaching method.

There’s no single formula for great coaching. The best coaches know how to apply research in the moment, adjusting to the people in front of them and the environment they’re working in. For facility operators, that balance can shape member results, retention and the overall training experience. Coaching that adapts leads to better outcomes and stronger connections on the floor. Hear from Professor Ian Jeffreys, President of the NSCA, as he shares his perspective on blending science and practice. Join the conversation #coaching #performancetraining #gymowners
