Breaking The Coaching Code: How Great Coaches Transcend The Rules with Karen FoyWhat if great coaching isn't about mastering the rules, but learning when and how to transcend them?In this heartfelt and grounded episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I'm joined by Karen Foy, a Master Certified Coach, Coach Educator, Supervisor, and Mentor with over two decades of experience shaping the next generation of coaches. Karen's journey began in nursing, where her natural compassion and care for others first took root. Her love of psychology led her into the NHS, where she moved through policy and service development before discovering the transformative potential of coaching. She has since served as Programme Director for Accredited Programmes at Henley Business School, where she remains a Visiting Tutor and Honorary Fellow, continuing to inspire coaches and changemakers worldwide.Together, we explore the themes in her new book, Breaking the Coaching Code: How Great Coaches Transcend the Rules, and the deeper invitation it offers to those of us who coach to move beyond frameworks and techniques, and instead cultivate trust in our own wisdom, presence, and humanity. Karen speaks with rare humility and openness, sharing how her own path has been a lifelong process of “walking people home” to their unique selves, while continuing that same journey within her own life. We discuss concepts such as enoughness, compassion, the evolving nature of retirement, and what it truly means to live and work with integrity in a world that often demands perfection.This is a conversation filled with heart and hard-won wisdom, one that will resonate deeply with every coach, guide, and changemaker who believes that our presence, not perfection, is what truly ignites change.Key TakeawaysWhy great coaching begins where the rules end; trusting your own wisdom and humanity.The journey from nursing to coaching and what it reveals about care, service, and transformation.How to embrace “enoughness” and coach from your unique authenticity, not expertise.What the “second half of life” teaches us about purpose, letting go, and contribution.How small acts of compassion and presence ripple out to create a kinder worldLearn More About Today's GuestKaren Foy Associates & The Coach Tribe website ****→ http://www.thecoachtribe.com/Karen on LinkedIn → https://www.linkedin.com/in/karenfoy/Karen's new book → Breaking The Coaching Code: How Great Coaches Transcend The Rules by Karen Foy, https://amzn.to/42syIbKExplore Sacred Changemakers:Start your journey → SacredChangemakers.comDiscover Your Resonance Code → quiz.SacredChangemakers.comJoin our community → SacredChangemakers.com/communitySubscribe to The Coaching (R)evolution Newsletter → https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/the-coaching-r-evolution-7371571227230101504Books by Jayne Warrilow:‘Becoming: Poems From The Thresholds Of Change' →

What happens when you're so good at keeping everything together… that you forget to take care of yourself? In this episode of The Total Health in Midlife Podcast, I'm joined by Master Certified Coach and people-pleasing expert Sara Fisk to explore a surprising culprit behind so many women's exhaustion, resentment, and stalled health goals: high-functioning codependency. We're not talking about the kind of codependency tied to addiction. This is the polished, over-performing version that shows up in moms, partners, daughters, and leaders—the women who hold everything and everyone together… and quietly fall apart in the process. Sara shares how people-pleasing, perfectionism, and control patterns drain your energy, chip away at your physical and emotional health, and keep you stuck in a cycle of doing for others while ignoring your own needs. If you've ever found yourself running ragged fixing other people's problems, this episode will help you come back to yourself—with honesty, compassion, and a few practical tools to help you start saying yes to you again. About Sara Fisk Sara Bybee Fisk is a Master Certified Coach and Instructor who teaches women how to tame the rampant people-pleasing, perfectionism, and codependency that is causing them so much frustration and resentment.  She is an anxious optimist and born-again feminist who listens to more books than she sits down to read. She loves a good hike, good dark chocolate, and good conversations.  Her big dreams include learning to sail and to sing and dance like JLo and helping thousands of women create the big, juicy lives they want to be living. She is a wife and mom of 5 and she enjoys those roles most of the time.  WHAT YOU'LL LEARN What high-functioning codependency looks like (and why most women don't recognize it in themselves) How trying to “help” others can actually be a way to avoid our own discomfort Why over-controlling others can sabotage your health, relationships, and peace of mind—and how to shift the pattern RESOURCES Too Much by Terri Cole The Dance of Anger by Harriet Lerner Sara Fisk's Free Guide: How to Have a Difficult Conversation The Ex Good Girl Podcast with Sara Fisk Sara's Stop People Pleasing Group Program Total Health in Midlife Podcast Episode 160: Ex-Good Girl with Sara Fisk Total Health in Midlife Podcast Episode 161: People Pleasing & Self-Care Total Health in Midlife Podcast Episode 127: Best Supporting Actress In Your Life Get full show notes and more information here: https://elizabethsherman.com/243  

ABOUT THIS EPISODEI had the joy of meeting Karen via an online supervision group organised by EY in collaboration with Henley Business School. Karen has written a book, Breaking the Coaching Code - how great coaches transcend the rules published in November 2025. In our conversation Karen offers valuable insights into:What it means to walk home to yourself. The journey to and of self-acceptance. And having a social conscience.Karen's key encouragements to Leaders:Reconnect with your unique self rather than trying to be what you think a good leader isUnderstand your strengths and be clear about your purpose Build your ability to have effective conversations with clarity, compassion, curiosity and courageAbout Karen:Karen Foy has been coaching since 2003, her background before coaching was in the NHS working locally, regionally and nationally on policy related to patient experience. She caught the coaching bug on an Open University summer school whilst undertaking a module from the MBA on Creativity, Innovation and Change thinking about creativity innovation and change.She heard about this thing called coaching and thought, that's the thing she does when she's supposed to be working and was blown away that she could do it as a career. She trained as a coach, built her business alongside her work, and then jumped in 2007 to become a full-time coach.She already had a first degree in psychology and the next step for her was to undertake a master's degree in Coaching Psychology which she gained in 2011. She is a Master Certified Coach with the International Coach Federation, a Certified Mentor for ICF Credentials and she has a Professional Certificate in Coaching Supervision from Henley Business School.She has recently retired from her lecturing role at Henley Business School where she was the Programme Director for Accredited Coaching Programmes. Joining an academic institution was a crash course in acceptance as she is a Yorkshire woman from a ‘dyed in the wool' working class background who left school at 14 with no qualifications.She has come to a place where she is more able to welcome her gremlin of not being good enough as the gift it is to her coaching.To connect with Karen:Website: www.thecoachtribe.comLinkedIn: @Karen Foy, MCCTo listen to other Leaders in Conversation with Anni Townend: Go to my website, www.annitownend.comA big thank you to SHMOGUS Media for the wonderful production and marketing of the podcast.To contact me Anni Townend do email me on anni@annitownend.com visit my website www.annitownend.com, subscribe to my newsletter and follow me on LinkedIn.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Jerry Henderson—Master Certified Coach, author, speaker, and host of the Permission to Love podcast—to unpack how shame quietly fuels burnout, perfectionism, and imposter syndrome. Jerry shares the inner work that moved him from achievement-as-proof to achievement-as-expression, and explains why self-acceptance increases sustainable performance without the self-punishment loop. If you lead, build, or strive—and feel like it never feels like “enough”—this conversation gives you a practical path to healthy high achievement rooted in identity, self-compassion, and aligned ambition. About the guest  : Jerry Henderson is a Master Certified Coach, author, speaker, and creator of the Personal Mastery Framework. He's raised $1B+ in philanthropy and blends psychology, coaching, and trauma-informed practices to help high achievers transform shame-driven success into fulfillment, resilience, and impact. He hosts the Permission to Love podcast. Key takeaways: Shame vs. guilt: Guilt = “I did something wrong.” Shame = “I am something wrong.” Shame often drives overwork, perfectionism, and burnout. Achievement isn't the enemy: High achievement can be healthy; it turns harmful when used to outrun not-enoughness. The inside job: Chasing external approval rarely creates peace. The work is self-acceptance first, then achievement as expression—not proof. Energy shift: Moving from self-criticism to self-compassion changes the fuel source—less grind, more clarity and consistency. Not complacency: Acceptance doesn't mean settling. It means you challenge yourself from care, not fear. Identity > outcomes: Know who you are without your wins. Let wins amplify who you are, not define it. Spot the signs: When “5 o'clock comes sooner,” relationships strain, or health dips, achievement may be shame-driven. Practical start: Notice the inner critic story; replace it with one small act of self-acceptance today. Leader note: Self-berating “bossing” demotivates. Self-compassion sustains performance and protects well-being.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Phyllis Sisenwine discuss:The importance of networking and relationship-building for professional growthEffective time management and productivity strategiesHow to leverage speaking engagements and visibility opportunitiesThe role of follow-up, asking for referrals, and accountability in business development Key Takeaways:Interruptions can cost lawyers over an hour of billable time each day, so using strategies like time blocking, decluttering workspaces, and tackling the hardest tasks first ensures greater focus and productivity.Networking becomes far more effective when approached strategically by going early to events, bringing a buddy for support, wearing a professional nametag, and consistently following up multiple times to turn introductions into trusted relationships.Speaking engagements generate real business opportunities only when lawyers prepare by connecting with attendees beforehand, personalizing their talks with stories, gathering contact details, and following up afterward to continue the relationship.Lawyers often miss out on referrals because clients assume they are too busy, so they must directly but naturally ask for introductions by framing it as a way to be helpful and showing they want more clients like the ones they already serve. "You really can't be afraid to swing that bat. You want to be a successful lawyer. You can't be afraid to network, to reach out to big referral partners and just take risks." —  Phyllis Sisenwine Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again. Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

Shruti Sonthalia says purpose is her superpower. A strong sense of purpose helped Shruti to demolish seemingly insurmountable barriers to becoming a Master Certified Coach and a globally renowned industry figure, and in this episode of The Coach's Journey Podcast, she implores all coaches to find their ‘why'.Shruti began her journey without coaches around her to learn from, living and working in a culture that assumed expertise was the preserve of men with white hair.

In this episode of the Health and Wellness Coach Journal Podcast, Dr. Jessica Singh sits down with Clare Norman, Master Certified Coach and author of Cultivating Coachability. With over twenty years of experience in coaching and coach supervision, Clare is on a mission to encourage coaches to be more vocal about coachability, expecting more of coaching custodians and thinkers alike such that those thinkers are coaching-ready Together, Clare and Dr. Singh explore the often-overlooked but essential concept of coachability: what it is, how it differs from coaching readiness, and why it matters. Clare offers thoughtful distinctions that speak to the heart of what many coaches experience in practice: misalignment, unclear expectations, or clients who may not yet be ready for the work coaching entails. This conversation highlights how coaches must cultivate coachability to stay aligned with their ethics and scope of practice, regardless of their niche or practice setting. In this episode, Clare Norman also explores the often-overlooked role of the coaching custodian—those who hold responsibility for the structure, delivery, and integrity of coaching within organizations. In private practice, the coach often assumes this role themselves, making intentional coach screening and assessing whether coaching is appropriate particularly important. Clare offers thoughtful guidance on setting boundaries, screening for coachability, and reframing success in ways that support more ethical, sustainable coaching relationships. Her insights equip coaches to lead with greater clarity, care, and accountability—whether they're working independently or within a broader system. Whether you're a new coach navigating your first few clients or a seasoned practitioner, this episode sheds light on how to cultivate coachability for deeper, more sustainable impact.

With nearly three decades of experience, she empowers individuals to sell with purpose, emotional intelligence, and heart. Connie is a trusted voice in the sales world, featured in outlets like Forbes and the Wall Street Journal, and a passionate advocate for leading with authenticity.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode of the Selling from the Heart Podcast, Larry Levine and Darrell Amy welcome Connie Kadansky, President of Exceptional Sales Performance. Connie shares her expertise in overcoming call reluctance, cultivating curiosity, and using trust-based influence in sales. Listeners will discover how to lead with empathy, practice authentic communication, and leverage AI and role-play to boost sales confidence and effectiveness.KEY TAKEAWAYSAuthenticity in Sales: Building trust through genuine, heart-led conversations. Call Reluctance: Identify and address internal resistance with practice and self-awareness. Tactical Empathy: Inspired by Chris Voss, use questions and tone to deepen trust. Curiosity as Emotion: Approach each client with genuine interest and an open mind. Role-Play & Preparation: Practice and feedback sharpen your skills before the stakes are high. Self-Respect & Discipline: Inner work drives external results in sales performance. HIGHLIGHT QUOTES“Curiosity is an emotion. Many people do not know that.”“Self-respect precedes self-discipline.”“Leadership starts with the heart, culture, and success follow.”“Confidence is developed through experience.” 

Self-awareness is the first pillar of effective empathetic leadership in The Empathy Dilemma. If you don't know what's going on for you, you will never be able to make room for empathetic leadership.I highly recommend working with a leadership or executive coach to guide you in this self-discovery process. But the world of coaching is like the Wild West, with so many people promising the moon, engaging in unethical tactics, and giving the industry a bad name.Today, my guest, Bridgette Boudreau, talks about effective coaching relationships and how to embrace empathy to get the results you want. We had a meandering and meaningful conversation about false confidence, tips to find and work effectively with a coach, red flags to avoid, and how to recognize certain behavior patterns that are stopping you from getting the results you want. We also talk about the coaching industry and how ethical, genuine coaches can lean into marketing and selling with integrity so the right clients can find them.To access the episode transcript, please search for the episode title at www.TheEmpathyEdge.comKey Takeaways:Try doing some changes internally and seeing what changes about the situation - everybody at work that we're disagreeing with is not the enemy. Don't write off coaching forever if you have had a negative coaching experience.Vibes are important - if you are feeling in the flow, an openness, and like you're energetically on the same page, that's what you want in a coach.Take what you want and leave the rest. Be curious, try new things, and see what works for you. "Never give up your discernment. If something doesn't feel right, bring it up in the session. And if that doesn't feel safe, then that's not the right coaching relationship for you." — Bridgette Boudreau Episode References: Three OG Coaches PodcastFrom Our Partner:SparkEffect partners with organizations to unlock the full potential of their greatest asset: their people.
