Coaching The Human Soul - Encouraging The Sacred WithinWhat does it really mean to coach at the level of soul?In this very special roundtable episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, host Jayne Warrilow is joined by members of the Resonance Collective for a heartfelt and timely conversation: “Coaching the Human Soul – Encouraging the Sacred Within.”Together with Dr. Al Spicer, Dr. Pamela Moss, Jason Stein, and Crina Ancuta, we explore what it looks like to move beyond traditional models of coaching and step into the multidimensional aspects of being human. This conversation explores the role of heart, spirit, and presence in transformational work, particularly in corporate and executive leadership environments, where the soul is often left at the door. Our panelists share their own practices, challenges, and insights on what it takes to truly create space for the sacred within coaching.We explore silence, storytelling, reverence, and deep listening, and ask: what becomes possible when coaching becomes a field for the soul to be remembered? You'll also hear reflections on the limitations of systems that value logic, speed, and measurable outcomes over intuition, wisdom, and connection, and a candid discussion about the future of human presence in an age shaped by AI. This is not just a conversation about inspiring human change; it's about remembering who we are, uncovering the sacred that has always been within us, and creating spaces where transformation can take root at the deepest level.If you're ready to expand your understanding of what's possible in coaching and to explore how we can encourage the sacred within ourselves and our clients, this conversation is for you. Listen now and let it call you deeper into your own resonance.Key TakeawaysWhy coaching the soul requires us to move beyond systems, strategies, and outcomes.How to invite the sacred into conversations where it is often absent.The role of silence, sacred presence, and deep listening in transformational work.Challenges of working in environments dominated by speed, logic, and performance metrics.Why encouraging the sacred within isn't about adding something new—but uncovering what's already there.Meet Our GuestsDr. Al Spicer is the CEO and founder of Extraordinary Life, Inc.

1. Kingmaker: Pamela Harriman's Astonishing Life of Power, Seduction, and Intrigue by Sonia Purnell chronicles the extraordinary life of Pamela Digby, later Pamela Harriman, a woman who masterfully leveraged her personal connections and keen intellect to become a significant, albeit often behind-the-scenes, figure in 20th-century politics. Born into an aristocratic but cash-strapped family in rural Dorset in 1920, Pamela Digby received a limited education but possessed a sharp mind. Her desire to escape her constrained upbringing led her to an impetuous marriage with Randolph Churchill, Winston Churchill's son, in September 1939. Despite warnings about Randolph's philandering and abusive nature, she saw the marriage as a doorway to an exciting lifestyle and a way to avoid returning to Dorset. During World War II, as her marriage to Randolph deteriorated, Pamela forged a close bond with Winston Churchill. She quickly became Churchill's secret weapon, joining his inner circle, "Padlock," and gathering crucial intelligence from influential Americans. Her most notable liaison was with Averell Harriman, the 49-year-old in charge of Lend-Lease, whom she successfully "enlisted to the British cause" and "bewitched" with her charm and strategic "mating dance". She also influenced figures like CBS star Ed Murrow, feeding him information to bolster British support in American broadcasts. Her wartime experiences, including giving birth during a Blitz air raid, deeply shaped her perspective. After the war, Pamela continued to cultivate influential relationships, including with Gianni Agnelli of Fiat, whom she helped gain acceptance in Washington. She later moved to America, marrying producer Leland Hayward in the late 1950s. While in the US, she was a close friend of President John F. Kennedy, whose assassination deeply affected her. Following Leland Hayward's death, which left her financially depleted, Pamela re-encountered and married Averell Harriman. This marriage marked her full immersion into American politics. She transformed their Washington D.C. home into a hub for Democrats, making Harriman feel like a king and advancing her own influence. She was an early advocate for women's political involvement, pushing beyond the traditional role of a political hostess to focus on policy and candidates. Pamela became a crucial mentor to Bill Clinton after his 1980 gubernatorial loss, restoring his self-belief and providing strategic guidance, including advice on television appearances. Her efforts were instrumental in shaping the Democratic party and contributing to its successes, including Clinton's 1992 presidential victory. As a reward, President Clinton appointed her Ambassador to Paris, a role she embraced despite her lack of formal diplomatic training. In this position, she played a decisive role in strengthening Franco-American relations and bringing a "moral compass" to the Bosnia crisis, drawing on her own wartime experiences to urge intervention. Pamela Harrimandied in 1997 from a brain hemorrhage, with Bill Clinton delivering an emotional eulogy, acknowledging her indispensable role in his political journey and her significant contributions to the 20th century. 1827 FOREIGN OFFICE AND DOWNING STREET

“No man can succeed on their own if they're by themselves.”  From accidental author to award-nominated actor, Jennifer “Panda” MacLean shares how a snarky cat, a love of theatre, and pure self-awareness shaped her creative journey. This episode is sponsored by my new book BRANDJITSU, helping you find, shape, and share your story with the world. In This Episode In this episode, Michael talks with Jennifer “Panda” MacLean—healthcare worker, actor, and the accidental author of An Ode to Myself, a book of poetry “written” by her late cat, Newton. What began as a cheeky Facebook page to update friends on Newton's life turned into a literary project filled with feline wit, existential musings, and a surprising publishing deal. Panda shares the full origin story, from her post-divorce life in a tiny apartment to Newton's online rise, his unique quirks (wasabi, cumin, and lavender were among his favourites), and how a literary agent eventually brought his voice to print. Beyond the book, she talks about her love for theatre, her CAT Award nomination, and the lessons she learned growing up as a middle child with close-knit sisters. The conversation meanders through sushi recommendations, bucket list travel dreams, reflections on Canada's place in the world, and the value of asking for help. Her advice for rebels in waiting? Know why you're doing something, do it because you love it, and let go of the expectation that success is the only worthy outcome. Quotable Quotes “I am actually a published author—an accidental published author, I might add.” “He was something else. The hate did run deep, but he adored me.” “No man can succeed on their own if they're by themselves.” “Sometimes it doesn't matter what the end goal is—it's all about the journey and the friends along the way.” “Just fucking do it. Going in expecting success is the wrong way to look at it.” Episode Highlights Accidental Author | How a cat's Facebook page became a published poetry book. Newton the Cat | From wasabi and cumin to deep-running feline disdain. Stage Life | Acting in Agatha Christie's Spider's Web and a CAT Award nomination. Middle Child Superpower | Growing up with two sisters and a tight family bond. Moving West | From Dartmouth, Nova Scotia to Calgary, Alberta. Bucket List Dreams | Japan, mountain ranges, and community theatre abroad. Sushi Favourites | Sushi Bar Zipang in Bridgeland and Globefish in Kensington. Man Is Not an Island | The importance of community and asking for help. Rebel Advice | Be self-aware, do it because you love it, and let go of outcome pressure.

Pallas Founder and CEO Rich Mullen adds another Extraordinary Life interview to the Pallas roster, this time with Cara Belvin of Empower.

You're not behind—you're in process. There's a 4-phase pattern every person goes through before stepping into the life they're truly called to live. Once you see it, you'll stop second-guessing your path and start recognizing what God's actually building in you. If things have felt off, delayed, or harder than expected… this could be the missing piece.

Juliet Prowse: Born to Dance: The Extraordinary Life Story of My AuntIn this episode, I discussed with Juliet Prowse regarding her book about her Aunt Juliet Prowse.  Juliet Prowse was a young South African dancer and entertainer who burst into the international spotlight in her first Hollywood movie, Can-Can. Considered talented and exotic, she caught the media's attention and her engagement to Frank Sinatra fuelled their fascination further. But was it love and what did Sinatra make of Juliet's relationship with Elvis during G.I. Blues? Unhappy with 20th Century Fox, Juliet broke out of her contract, created her own company and became one of the highest paid dancers of her era on a $1 million Las Vegas contract in the mid-1970s.

Mastering the Art of Listening Summary In this episode of the Customer Service Revolution podcast, John DiJulius and Denise Thompson discuss the importance of listening in customer service and leadership. They explore recent trends in customer experience, the art of listening, and practical tips for improving listening skills. The conversation emphasizes curiosity, engagement, and the need for leaders to create an environment where everyone feels heard. They also touch on the concept of a 'reality distortion field' and how it can inspire teams to achieve the impossible. Takeaways Listening is a critical skill in customer service and leadership. Curiosity drives better conversations and deeper connections. Effective listening requires patience and the ability to let others finish their thoughts. Leaders should speak last to empower their teams and encourage open dialogue. Avoid multitasking during conversations to show respect and engagement. Asking probing questions enhances the quality of discussions. Listening like you're wrong can lead to better understanding and service recovery. Being a trampoline, not a sponge, fosters more engaging conversations. Everyone has a story that can provide valuable insights. Creating a reality distortion field can help teams achieve extraordinary results.

After the success of our bilingual season about the first female doctor trained in the Dominican Republic, The Extraordinary Life and Tragic Death of Evangelina Rodríguez Perozo, we are adapting more of our episodes in Spanish. Starting next week, listen out for the stories of astronomer Annie Maunder, physicists Emma Unson Rotor and Carolyn Parker, and chemist and forensic scientist Mary Louisa Willard in Spanish and English. As we always say, for every Marie Curie or Rosalind Franklin whose story has been told, hundreds of female scientists remain unknown to the public at large. So, we illuminate the lives and work of a diverse array of groundbreaking scientists who, because of time, place and gender, have gone largely unrecognized. And now these stories are available in Spanish too. Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Tauren Wells might be best known for his powerhouse vocals and chart-topping songs, but in this conversation, he shares what's been stirring beneath the surface—stories of calling, surrender, and a deeper understanding of joy. From his early days leading youth worship in a church basement to launching a fast-growing new church near Austin, TX, Tauren reflects on the unexpected ways God has shaped his path. His new book, Joy Bomb: Unleash Jesus's Explosive Joy for an Extraordinary Life, draws from the Beatitudes to invite us into a kind of joy that's not circumstantial—but deeply spiritual and transformational.We talk with Tauren about why happiness and holiness were never meant to be separated, how our view of God shapes everything else, and what it means to rest in being loved by God—not just used by Him. Whether you're navigating a full season, feeling weary from trying to measure up, or simply longing for more joy in your everyday life, Tauren's words will point you to the Source that doesn't run dry.For more about Tauren's new book: https://www.amazon.com/Joy-Bomb-Unleash-Explosive-Extraordinary/dp/0310368901

In this week's episode, Rashidah sits down with Danielle Desiree, a powerful voice in the neurodiversity community and a proud autism mom from Atlanta, Georgia. Danielle's 17-year-old son, Jordan, was diagnosed with autism and ADHD at the age of 7—a moment that reshaped her entire journey. Danielle previously served in the United States Air Force, where she experienced a structured and supportive environment while raising her eldest child. After transitioning out of the military, she faced the challenge of adjusting to a different lifestyle, particularly in the absence of the resources and support systems that had previously surrounded her. That led her to be inspired to create EVOL2VE (Evolve 2 Love)—a movement dedicated to helping others find meaning, healing, and strength through life's challenges. Danielle is also the host of An Extraordinary Life, a podcast that amplifies voices within the neurodiverse community, and she's launching a new initiative called KINGZ, focused on empowering youth. Tune in as Danielle shares her journey, her heart, and her mission to help others unlock their potential with grace, confidence, and love. Connect with Danielle: Website: evol2ve.com Facebook/Instagram: thedanielledesiree You Tube: youtube.com/@thedanielledesiree   Follow Us: Instagram & Facebook: @theabmpodcast TikTok: @autismforbadassmoms YouTube: @theabmpodcast Don't forget to subscribe, rate, and share!

What if the things you don't have are exactly what God wants to use? In this powerful conversation, Tauren Wells joins The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast to share the story behind his new book Joy Bomb: Unleashing Jesus's Explosive Joy for an Extraordinary Life. Together with host Ginny Yurich, Tauren unpacks the deeper meaning of the Beatitudes—revealing how Jesus' first sermon wasn't just a list of virtues but a radical invitation to joy for the overlooked, the grieving, the struggling, and the spiritually empty. They explore how our culture's obsession with curated happiness leaves us chasing a version of joy that never satisfies. Instead, Tauren offers a bold reframing: lack, mourning, and hardship aren't roadblocks—they're invitations into a deeper, more explosive joy. With stories from his own life, parenting insights, and biblical truth, this episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about what it means to live a blessed life. ** Get your copy of Joy Bomb here Learn more about Tauren and all he has to offer here Learn more about your ad choices.
