Welcome to this episode of Talking about Coaching, the podcast from coaches for coaches. This episode is one of Yannick's deep dives into one topic or person and we're talking about coaching with Ruth Cooper-Dickson who shares her inspiring journey from doing corporate work to coaching classical musicians, highlighting what it takes to break into a new line of work as well as innovative approaches to wellbeing and resilience through music and positive psychology. In July 2026 Ruth will be presenting the insights and learning from this journey at the European Conference for Positive Psychology (ECPP) in Dublin, and we thought it would be excellent to offer the conference audience (as well as a wider one) access to a deeper dive into how she made this dream happen, her approach to working with musicians and performers, and her experience along the way.KEY TOPICS- How to launch a successful coaching pilot- Building resilience and confidence in musicians- Community and relationship building through arts- Using strengths and values in coachingABOUT RUTHRuth Cooper-Dickson is an award-winning positive psychology practitioner, trauma-informed coach, and founder of Thrivership Coaching™. A published academic, her recent practitioner research focuses on classical musicians, and she has developed and delivered a positive psychology coaching programme for musicians and composers in collaboration with the Royal Philharmonic Society, bringing evidence-based wellbeing tools to the unique pressures of a life in classical music. Her earlier academic work explored post-traumatic growth and coaching, a thread that continues to underpin her practice.Ruth launched her wellbeing consultancy after her own experience of mental ill health, including Generalised Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, and chronic burnout. That lived experience sits at the heart of her work, where she helps individuals and organisations start open, honest, and human conversations about Mental Wealth. Her trauma-informed approach to thrivership coaching supports people to grow after adversity rather than simply recover from it. She has been a patron of the UK anxiety charity No Panic since 2018.Alongside her coaching, Ruth is a radio broadcaster who has hosted live since 2024, and a keynote speaker who has delivered talks for global brands, combining academic research with real-world insight. A certified breathwork leader and Mental Health First Aid Instructor of over a decade, she has trained thousands worldwide.Learn more about Ruth and her work at https://ruthcooperdickson.com/ Ruth on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ruthiecoops/ Ruth's Substack Coffee with Coops: https://ruthcooperdickson.substack.com/ Ruth's Podcast Espresso with Coops: https://ruthcooperdickson.substack.com/podcastRuth's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ruthcooperdickson/ Listen to Ruth every Friday 0730-1000 BST as she hosts the Breakfast Show: https://www.chelmsfordcommunityradio.com/ Chapters00:00 Introduction to Coaching and Music03:11 Ruth's Journey into Positive Psychology and Coaching06:00 The Intersection of Music and Healing08:52 Creating a Coaching Program for Musicians12:07 The Structure and Goals of the Coaching Program15:08 Navigating the Unique Challenges of Classical Musicians18:00 The Role of an External Coach21:00 Feedback and Impact of the Coaching Program24:00 Personal Reflections and Lessons Learned33:51 Embracing Creativity and Growth36:14 Building Relationships in Coaching39:26 Collecting Stories and Experiences40:44 Identifying Personal Values and Strengths42:36 The Importance of Humility in Performance44:01 Creating Community Connections45:15 Leveraging AI for Program Development48:13 The Value of Pro Bono Work50:56 Reflections on the Program's Impact57:11 Future Opportunities and Collaborations_____________________________Never miss an episode by signing up to our mailing list:https://rocketsupervision.com/talking-about-coaching/Continue the conversation - Join the community!Whatsapp: https://chat.whatsapp.com/HLEWkFImuk60UQO2JA8HpA More deep dives into coaching at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEK9UENWT66D6uqPJhCznXNhc9Ba9jiteShort episodes of Talking about Coaching addressing specific questions: https://www.youtube.com/talkingaboutcoaching You can also find us on all major podcast platforms.If you'd like to support the Podcast, please consider a positive review, leave a comment or tell a friend or colleague about this episode.And did you know that you can see COACHING DEMOS from many of our podcast guests as part of Yannick's Coaching Lab.

In this episode, I examine the idea that worker co-ops offer a better alternative to traditional capitalism and explain why, despite good intentions, they have never become a widespread solution. We explore incentives, risk, human nature, and the practical realities of starting and growing organizations.I also discuss the strengths and weaknesses of both co-ops and capitalism, why systems must account for human nature, and how Christian principles should guide the way we approach work, ownership, and serving others.

AI has long dominated ag industry headlines—but turning it from concept into day-to-day agronomic practice requires far more than a product launch. In this episode of Ag Tech Talk, FS Agronomy Director Brendan Bachman of GROWMARK breaks down the operational reality behind scaling AI across one of North America's largest cooperative systems, from building data infrastructure to navigating the complexities of a federated organization. Rather than positioning AI as a disruption, Bachman describes it as a practical layer within existing workflows - one aimed at reducing friction and helping crop specialists make faster, more informed in-season decisions. The discussion highlights the less visible work of adoption: aligning systems, earning grower trust, and driving buy-in across FS locations, while tools like MyFS Agronomy increasingly reshape - not replace - the agronomist's role in the field.

This month on Laura Flanders and Friends, we're revisiting conversations around work, workers, and the Labor Movement on the Move. This week we explore how the folks at The People's Network for Land & Liberation (PNLL) are building for the future in the midst of the crisis facing us now. They say the forces that got us here are bigger than one bad leader; entire systems must be taken down. This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate Description: People across the country are resisting authoritarianism in creative and powerful ways, and this is just the start. The folks at The People's Network for Land & Liberation (PNLL) say the forces that got us here are bigger than one bad leader; entire systems must be taken down. Building a brighter future requires a vision of economic and social justice — and lots of practice. Today on Laura Flanders & Friends, we look at some of those practical experiments and paths for radical change, and discuss why they're just as important as resistance. The members of PNLL, a multiracial, multiethnic consortium of six community-based organizations, are doing politics and economics differently in real places across the U.S. right now. Joining us are Edget Betru, an attorney, activist and Coordinator of the People's Network for Land & Liberation; David Cobb, PNLL staff person and Co-coordinator of the U.S. Solidarity Economy Network; and Blair Evans, Founder and Executive Director of Incite Focus, a production and training lab based in Idlewild, Michigan. Find out how to build for the future — even in the toughest circumstances. All that, plus a commentary from Laura on William Morris's News From Nowhere. “We've been colonized in our minds . . . Involving people in day-to-day produce, meeting their needs through a different way, through thinking, Hey, who in my neighborhood knows how to fix this? . . . It's really that shift in consciousness that needs to happen that's going to allow for this new economy to emerge.” - Edget Betru “My mama and my mamaw and my papa who raised me taught me a lesson as a little boy, and that is, there's enough to go around as long as we share. That made sense to me when I was five years old. It makes sense to me now when I'm 63 years old. There's enough to go around as long as we share. It's just as simple as that.” - David Cobb “We can make things that make things, we can design and build our own equipment that can then use locally sourced materials, hyper localizing the supply chain . . . We can stop feeding the monster that's consuming us and actually disconnect from that process and use what we have.” - Blair Evans Guests: • Edget Betru: Coordinator, People's Network for Land & Liberation; Board Member, Community Movement Builders • David Cobb: Staff, People's Network for Land & Liberation; Manager, Butterfly Impact Fund; Co-Coordinator, U.S. Solidarity Economy Network • Blair Evans: Coalition Member, People's Network for Land & Liberation; Founder & Executive Director, Incite Focus; Designer & Trainer, Fab Lab Watch on YouTube this episode that includes video clips referenced in this episode from Third World Newsreel; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

After decades of flat electricity demand, the U.S. power sector is suddenly racing to keep up—and rural electric cooperatives are on the front lines. In this episode of The POWER Podcast, Jim Matheson, CEO of the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA), joins executive editor Aaron Larson to discuss how roughly 900 co-ops serving 42 million people across 48 states are navigating surging data center load, supply chain pressures, and a shifting regulatory landscape. Matheson explains what makes the co-op model distinctive—not-for-profit, consumer-owned, and locally governed—and why affordability isn't a talking point but an operational imperative for utilities that serve 92% of America's persistent poverty counties. He then digs into the generation debate, drawing a key distinction between always-available sources like coal, gas, and nuclear, and intermittent resources like wind and solar, and makes the case for local flexibility over federal one-size-fits-all mandates. Other topics covered in the conversation include: • Why Matheson believes viable power plants shouldn't be retired before replacement capacity is in place. • The long-term outlook for nuclear, the status of small modular reactors, and a notable Michigan plant restart driven by two co-ops. • Where energy storage fits today—and what a true long-duration breakthrough would unlock. • How global supply chain pressures and tariffs are driving up costs on everything from turbines to meters. • NRECA's 2026 policy priorities, including EPA rule rollbacks, permitting reform, raising the USDA Rural Utilities Service lending cap, and FEMA reform. • The contractual and operational complexity of onboarding hyperscale data center loads, and why existing consumers shouldn't subsidize them. • How roughly 200 co-ops are now bringing broadband to underserved rural areas—a modern echo of 1930s rural electrification. Whether you're tracking the AI-driven load boom, policy developments in Washington, or the unique role cooperatives play in the U.S. electric sector, this conversation offers a clear-eyed view from someone who represents member-owned utilities covering 54% of the nation's land mass.
Co-operatives have a long and sometimes colored history in agriculture, across the Western world. What role will they play in the future of agriculture? As agriculture becomes increasingly shaped by digital technologies and artificial intelligence, the question of who owns, governs, and benefits from farm data is still unresolved. Could co-ops be the answer? In this episode, Sarah Nolet is joined by Tenacious Ventures co-founder Matthew Pryor and the creator of Upstream Ag Insights, Shane Thomas, to explore the history of co-operatives as a means for farmers to pool resources and address market power imbalances. They also unpack the business model behind co-ops and analyze whether the principles of co-ops could also be applied to digital infrastructure. This episode is the first in a series of business model “breakdown” episodes we'll be producing this year, where we'll dig into how agriculture systems, structures, and even specific companies work, why they matter today, and the impact of agtech in their evolution. This format is an experiment and we'd love your feedback! Sarah, Matthew, and Shane discuss: Why agricultural cooperatives emerged and how they address power imbalances in agricultural markets. How the cooperative model could extend from physical infrastructure to digital infrastructure and farm data governance. Whether co-ops could serve as trusted intermediaries for training AI models using aggregated farm data. How governance tensions between different types of farmers might play out in a data-driven future. How consolidation of cooperatives and changing farm structures could shape the future of technology adoption. Got a business model you'd like for us to break down in a future episode? Let us know!

The team also dives into one of the biggest talking points of the weekend — the new engine regulations. Qualifying in particular sparked major debate, with drivers losing huge speed on straights due to energy harvesting and downshifting mid-straight, something many fans and drivers found frustrating to watch. Despite the qualifying controversy, the race itself delivered plenty of action, with over 120 overtakes compared to just 45 last year, showing that the new era of Formula 1 might still produce exciting racing. The crew also rate the race, discuss the biggest winners and losers from the weekend, debate whether the new regulations need fixing, and look ahead to next week's Chinese Grand Prix.Checkout this amazing video of Lynda Britten - https://youtu.be/kdkXVmnjSI0

Synopsis: From Resistance to Revolution How Communities Are Creating a New Economy This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate Description: People across the country are resisting authoritarianism in creative and powerful ways, and this is just the start. The folks at The People's Network for Land & Liberation (PNLL) say the forces that got us here are bigger than one bad leader; entire systems must be taken down. Building a brighter future requires a vision of economic and social justice — and lots of practice. Today on Laura Flanders & Friends, we look at some of those practical experiments and paths for radical change, and discuss why they're just as important as resistance. The members of PNLL, a multiracial, multiethnic consortium of six community-based organizations, are doing politics and economics differently in real places across the U.S. right now. Joining us are Edget Betru, an attorney, activist and Coordinator of the People's Network for Land & Liberation; David Cobb, PNLL staff person and Co-coordinator of the U.S. Solidarity Economy Network; and Blair Evans, Founder and Executive Director of Incite Focus, a production and training lab based in Idlewild, Michigan. Find out how to build for the future — even in the toughest circumstances. All that, plus a commentary from Laura on William Morris's News From Nowhere. “We've been colonized in our minds . . . Involving people in day-to-day produce, meeting their needs through a different way, through thinking, Hey, who in my neighborhood knows how to fix this? . . . It's really that shift in consciousness that needs to happen that's going to allow for this new economy to emerge.” - Edget Betru “My mama and my mamaw and my papa who raised me taught me a lesson as a little boy, and that is, there's enough to go around as long as we share. That made sense to me when I was five years old. It makes sense to me now when I'm 63 years old. There's enough to go around as long as we share. It's just as simple as that.” - David Cobb “We can make things that make things, we can design and build our own equipment that can then use locally sourced materials, hyper localizing the supply chain . . . We can stop feeding the monster that's consuming us and actually disconnect from that process and use what we have.” - Blair Evans Guests: • Edget Betru: Coordinator, People's Network for Land & Liberation; Board Member, Community Movement Builders • David Cobb: Staff, People's Network for Land & Liberation; Manager, Butterfly Impact Fund; Co-Coordinator, U.S. Solidarity Economy Network • Blair Evans: Coalition Member, People's Network for Land & Liberation; Founder & Executive Director, Incite Focus; Designer & Trainer, Fab Lab Watch on YouTube this episode that includes video clips referenced in this episode from Third World Newsreel; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

In New York City real estate, few decisions generate more confusion or more debate than the choice between a condo and a co-op. On paper, the differences seem straightforward. In reality, buyers quickly discover that this decision touches everything from lifestyle and financing to governance, resale flexibility, and long-term value. Condos offer autonomy, liquidity, and fewer restrictions, but often at a premium. Co-ops, which still dominate much of the city's housing stock, can provide more space and value, yet come with board scrutiny, financial disclosures, and rules that can surprise even seasoned buyers. So why, in 2026, are buyers still struggling with this choice? Is it about control versus community? Flexibility versus stability? Or simply understanding how these two ownership models actually work in today's market? Today, we're breaking down the real-world trade-offs between condos and co-ops in New York City—what buyers need to know, what they often misunderstand, and how to make the right decision for their goals, not just their budget.

For decades, we've been told that high performance is about gathering the brightest stars—the so-called “super chickens”—onto one team and watching the magic happen. But what if this approach is exactly what's holding us back? In this episode, we challenge the myth of the lone genius and superstar culture, inspired by the research of evolutionary biologist William Muir and our guest, Jon Levy, author of Team Intelligence.We dig into why the true driver of organizational excellence isn't the brilliance of any one leader or individual, but the collective effectiveness of the team. Jon shares surprising findings from research on team dynamics, showing that stellar individual credentials often don't correlate with high-performing teams—and sometimes even torpedo them. Together, we explore what makes teams “intelligent,” the concept of bursty communication, and the underappreciated power of “glue players”—team members who multiply the effectiveness of everyone around them, often quietly and behind the scenes.If you've ever found yourself thinking, “We have the right people, so why aren't we clicking?”, this conversation gives you an entirely new framework for team effectiveness. It's not about outshining one another; it's about amplifying each other.Five Key Learnings:The Super Chicken Fallacy: Prioritizing only high-performing individuals can lead to toxic rivalry and stifle collaboration, ultimately reducing the team's overall output.Fluid Leadership: Effective teams allow leadership to flow based on expertise, not title—leadership shifts to those best suited to solve the problem at hand.Emotional Intelligence Matters Most: The best predictor for team effectiveness is the group's collective emotional intelligence, not the average or highest IQ.Glue Players Are Multipliers: Certain team members—rarely the stars—can significantly raise the performance of those around them by prioritizing team success, facilitating communication, and demonstrating forward-thinking.Aligned Incentives Create Real Teamwork: Misaligned incentives that reward only individual performance sow competition; when incentives support team outcomes, collective intelligence and output flourish.Get full interviews and bonus content for free!
