In this episode of The Coaching Inn, host Claire Pedrick is joined by Helen O'Grady, Ceri Newton-Sargunar, Sarah Crittenden, Debra Broadhurst and Talli Taylor. These experienced coaches have transitioned into coaching from various caring professions. The conversation delves into how their past experiences profoundly influence their current coaching practices. Key themes explored include the nuances of emotional regulation, the valuable integration of diverse professional backgrounds into the coaching domain, the critical role of language in fostering effective coaching relationships, and the increasing recognition and impact of neurodiversity in coaching. Everyone reflects on their individual journeys, the specific challenges encountered during their career transitions, and the insights gained along the way. What is important is a coach's presence, the facilitation of client agency, and the ability to navigate uncomfortable yet crucial conversations within the coaching process.    Key Takeaways: Being present and creating space are fundamental aspects of effective coaching. Prior professional experiences offer a wealth of transferable skills that significantly enrich coaching abilities. The conscious use of language and clear communication are vital for successful coaching outcomes. Individuals moving from healthcare to coaching may need to intentionally shed certain ingrained habits. Developing strong emotional regulation skills is crucial for both the coach's and the client's well-being. Cultural backgrounds and perspectives shape both the delivery and reception of coaching. A coach's capacity to embrace discomfort can lead to deeper and more meaningful client breakthroughs. The nature of responsibility in coaching differs significantly from that in other helping professions. Continuous personal development and reflection are integral to a thriving coaching career. Sound Bites: "I found my place in coaching." "It's about how we leave agency with people." "Getting comfortable with being uncomfortable." "I'm a curious explorer, not a helper." "What can I tolerate now?" "There's a lot less doing and more being." "Finding focus brings on focus." "I can put my shoulders down."

Chuck Templeton is an ex-operator, including founding OpenTable and serving as lead investor and operating Chairman in companies such as Grubhub and Venmo (Braintree Payment Systems). He is focused on helping the S2G team, entrepreneurs, and executives take their ideas, validate them, institutionalize processes, and ultimately scale their business innovations to address today's urgent environmental and societal problems.S2G is a multi-stage investment firm with $2.5B under management and 100+ portfolio companies. They focus on venture and growth-stage businesses across food and agriculture, oceans, and energy. With a commitment to creating long-term, measurable outcomes, S2G structures flexible capital solutions that can range from venture funding through growth equity to debt and infrastructure financing.–Here are 6 topics we covered in the podcast:1. S2G's Investment PhilosophyChuck Templeton debunks the myth that impact means weak returns—S2G invests where sustainability and strong financials align. Their focus spans food, ag, energy, and oceans, which together drive 90% of global emissions.2. Why Food & Ag Is UndervaluedFood systems cause one-third of emissions but get just ~4% of climate capital. Chuck sees massive upside in climate-friendly, great-tasting, and healthier food products.3. How S2G Operates DifferentlyThey invest $20M–$50M per deal, with dedicated teams per sector and an in-house acceleration platform that supports hiring, growth, and commercialization. Their capital stack includes both equity and flexible credit options.4. What Founders MissToo many founders obsess over tech and forget commercialization. S2G backs companies with $10M+ revenue, clear product-market fit, and capital discipline.5. Flashfood & Sunday: Climate by StealthFlashfood cuts grocery waste while saving consumers money; Sunday makes lawn care safer and easier for families. In both cases, climate benefits are real—but come after convenience, cost, and safety.6. Chuck's Personal FuelInspired by fatherhood and minimalism, Chuck shifted to climate after OpenTable and Venmo. Running, stoicism, and a love for leadership learning keep him grounded—plus, he's big on “raising your hand” to lead.--

In this episode of The Coaching Inn, host Claire Pedrick engages in a profound discussion with Naomi Ward and Fenella Trevillion about the complexities of coaching in diverse environments. We explore the importance of acknowledging differences, the impact of race and identity, and the necessity of vulnerability and discomfort in coaching relationships. The conversation emphasises the need for self-reflection and the role of coaches in fostering inclusive spaces where all individuals feel seen and heard. The episode concludes with a call to action for coaches to reflect on their practices and the role they play in promoting inclusion and safety.   Takeaways: Coaching in diverse settings requires awareness of group dynamics. Acknowledging differences can create a more inclusive coaching environment. Personal experiences shape coaching practices and philosophies. Race and identity significantly impact coaching relationships. Discomfort can be a powerful tool for growth in coaching. Vulnerability is essential for building trust in coaching. Self-reflection is crucial for understanding one's biases. Coaches must challenge assumptions about safety in coaching spaces. Inclusion in coaching is a shared responsibility among all coaches. The role of coaching extends beyond individual development to societal impact.

De brutalen hebben de halve wereld. Dat moet ASML hebben gedacht toen het op hoge poten bij Donald Trump aanklopte. ASML wil namelijk vrijstelling van Amerikaanse invoerheffingen. ASML verscheept onderdelen heen en weer tussen de VS en Europa, maar wil volgens het FD een opeenstapeling van heffingen voorkomen. Deze aflevering kijken we hoe ASML de onderhandelingen met Trump aan moet gaan. De president wil altijd iets terug, wat moet de maker van chipmachines geven aan de Amerikanen? Verder is het de aflevering waarin ceo's een hoofdrol opeisen. Bij IMCD en FlowTraders stappen de ceo's onverwachts op. Bij FlowTraders was de paniek onder beleggers zo groot dat de beurshandel stilgelegd moest worden. De exit van de topman en de slechte cijfers zorgen daar voor paniek.Bij ABN Amro en Unilever zijn de hoogste bazen al vervangen en de nieuwe bazen hebben grote plannen. Zo wil de ceo van ABN nu écht beter op de kosten gaan letten. Die van Unilever ook, maar daarnaast komt hij ook met een bijzondere voorspelling. Die importtarieven, die raken het bedrijf niet echt.Opvallend, helemaal omdat grote concurrent Procter & Gamble waarschuwt dat die handelsoorlog er wél in hakt. Net als een paar andere Amerikaanse bedrijven, die zelfs hun hele outlook intrekken.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

At today's open table, coaches Kris Thorne, Laun Ruttenburg,  Alun Bedding and Lizzie Rhodes James join Claire Pedrick to think about checking in during coaching sessions.    They discuss the importance of partnership, and delve into the nuances of effective check-ins.    Takeaways Checking in is vital for maintaining partnership in coaching. Effective check-ins should focus on the thinker's progress, not the coach's performance. Checking in during moments of flow enhances the coaching experience. Letting go of control allows for more authentic coaching interactions. Not every moment in a coaching session needs to be transformational.

Victor shares the story of Big Mamma's evolution—from a scrapped concept to a European dining sensation now setting its sights on the U.S. He discusses the brand's commitment to immersive dining, bold hospitality, and innovative technology, including his latest venture, Sunday.Key Takeaways• Big Mamma was initially meant to be a French breakfast café, but after just six weeks, Victor and his team realized the concept lacked excitement and scalability. They pivoted to Italian cuisine, recognizing its universal appeal and their passion for it.• Victor attributes Big Mamma's success to his and his co-founder's decision to step back and empower their team – handing off tasks such as ingredient sourcing led to noticeable improvements in quality and efficiency, proving that growth comes from trust and leadership.• The goal was always to build an international brand, so Big Mamma expanded quickly beyond France. London became a crucial market, offering a world-class clientele and proving to be their strongest European location.• To support expansion, Big Mamma brought in McWin as an anchor investor, allowing them to raise capital and secure debt financing without diluting ownership. This move ensured they could scale while maintaining control of their vision.• Sunday, their payment processing app, started as an in-house solution to improve efficiency. It quickly gained traction, with 70% of guests opting in. Seeing its potential, Victor spun it off as a separate company—much like OpenTable revolutionized reservations.• After seeing success across Europe, Victor and his co-founder decided it was time to enter the U.S. market, bringing Big Mamma's signature experience stateside.• Hot Takes: The fun kicks off with “Food Service Feud”, where Victor Lugger reveals what surprises European servers most about American diners. The heat rises in “Hot or Not”, the laughs roll in “Branded Quickfire”, and the competition gets fierce in “The Feud”.Thank you for joining us on Hospitality Hangout, powered by Branded Hospitality Ventures. Stay tuned for more insider insights, industry game-changers, and bold moves from the innovators shaping the future of hospitality.

Valentine's Day is fast approaching and many restaurants are offering the usual romantic dinners for two. But this year, even coffee cafes and smoothie bowl concepts are spreading the love with specials themed to the holiday. Pat and Bret chat about the trend, and how restaurants are not just targeting couples anymore. An OpenTable survey found that groups and singles are increasingly dining out on or before Valentine's Day. So candy-topped milkshakes, strawberry lattes and heart-shaped doughnuts make perfect sense.  Valentine's Day and Super Bowl vie for attention every February, with heart-shaped pizzas and chicken wings competing on menus. Speaking of wings, Bret came across a couple of new sauces recently. El Pollo Loco introduced its first new flavor in almost a decade—mango habanero. The sauce taps into the sweet-heat trend that we've been seeing a lot of lately. And WNBA star Angel Reese partnered with McDonald's on a new smoky barbecue sauce. It's flavoring a quarter-pounder rather than chicken, and this is the first time the burger giant is collaborating with a female athlete.  Our guest this week is Chris Smith, CEO of Zunzi's and Zunzibar based in Savannah, Georgia. Zunzi's started as a hole-in-the-wall sandwich shop and now has multiple locations in Georgia and South Carolina and is expanding to Florida. Zunzibar has a topnotch mixology program but manages to project a relaxed, tropical vibe—a formula that has proven to be a winning combination.  Listen as Smith talks about how he's built a team culture that's as unique as these two concepts. 

Guest: Nick Kokonas, co-founder of the Alinea Group and former CEO of TockAs of October 1, 2024, Nick Kokonas is no longer an owner of the Alinea restaurant group, which he co-founded and ran for almost 20 years. When he bought a vineyard in Napa Valley prior to the exit, one of his sons remarked, “He's given up. Time to go out to pasture.”Nick admits that the work ahead of him is “not the same” as the high-pressure world of a Michelin-starred restaurant in Chicago. But he's started working with the magician Nate Staniforth on a new restaurant concept that will present diners with illusions and surprises over the course of a two-hour experience. “If you want to feel wonder and feel childlike again, go see a magician,” Nick says. “[But] there's so much bad cultural baggage ... what we wanted to do was create an experience that is not really about magic.”Chapters:(02:29) - Celebrity restauranteurs (07:14) - The next act (12:30) - Buying the vineyard (15:37) - Fear is motivating (17:59) - Opening night (22:03) - Tongue cancer (27:56) - “OK, let's fix this” (31:10) - Selling experience (38:32) - The table plate (42:40) - Feeling full (44:14) - Next Restaurant and Tock (49:33) - Being still (51:19) - Nate Staniforth's lottery illusion (56:57) - The magic restaurant (01:02:29) - Being misunderstood (01:07:44) - Working via email (01:11:43) - “Enemies” (01:18:23) - Who Nick is hiring and what “grit” means to him Mentioned in this episode: Mike Gamson, Shaquille O'Neal, Jeff Kaplan, Steve Bernacki, Robin Anil, Grant Achatz, OpenTable, American Express, The Big Lebowski, The New York Times, eGullet, Gourmet Magazine, Roger Ebert, Eddie van Halen, Goodfellas, The Devil Wears Prada, Batman, the Chicago Bears, Madonna, Taylor Swift, Bavette's and Brendan Sodikoff, Pablo Picasso, Chef's Table, Google, Brian Fitzpatrick, Finding Real Magic, David Blaine, Mark Cuban, Mark Caro, Chicago Magazine, John Mariani, Cat Cora, Homaro Cantu, Dave Portnoy, Pete Wells, and Eric Asimov.Links:Connect with NickTwitterLinkedInConnect with JoubinTwitterLinkedInEmail: grit@kleinerperkins.com Learn more about Kleiner PerkinsThis episode was edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm

Gabe Duncan combined his unique experience – including stints as a musician, data engineer, and data science manager – with his entrepreneurial spirit to co-found Slang.ai five years ago. In Slang.ai, he envisions a “utopian vision.” If you dine at restaurants, you've probably called to book a reservation, only to be put on hold by a harried host. If you're a host, you've probably had to navigate buzzing phone calls when other duties called. Slang.ai leverages voice AI to power its digital phone concierge platform. “In the utopian vision, we are helping restaurants level-up their hospitality by removing, one, the need to do these tasks. And two, the frustration that can not only affect the caller but also the person standing in front of the host at that time, too,” Gabe explains to host Natalie Pierce, Gabe discusses his non-traditional past and his innovative future – and how AI fits into it. That future includes Slang.ai's exciting partnership with OpenTable, the global leader in restaurant tech. Launched last month, the partnership involves Slang.ai helping OpenTable operators with their phones and communications. As for AI, Gabe believes “we should use this opportunity to get better as humans doing what humans should do well, which is connecting with each other and learning to live better lives – human lives – without being pulled into things that frustrate us.”Episode HighlightsSlang.ai's mission is to create a great conversation between restaurant customers and staff that isn't stilted and is intelligent enough to save time on both ends.Gabe's early repetitive stress injury from playing guitar eventually led him to work on Spotify's hands-free voice assistant. Today, Slang.ai has several voice capabilities. “Inclusive” is the keyword at Slang.ai, where technology is democratized so users aren't trapped by a big corporate voice assistant.Gabe suggests that entrepreneurs should think like sailors, not race car drivers. “If you start with an idea of where you're going, and you have to keep directing yourself back, it's more like sailing a ship than it is driving a car. You just have to keep going back, tacking through the wind to find your course.”
