I'm a champion for the power and wonder of the human spirit. Today, humanity is collectively facing a poly-crisis of enormous scale and complexity rooted in a meta-crisis. In my view, this challenging situation is calling us to become a new kind of human being, one whose ways of being more sustainably care for the whole (instead of just our part). I created Aletheia, an emerging ecosystem of courses, practices groups, and communities to gather and support people who want to take up this critical project. Our core offering is training in Aletheia Coaching, a next-generation bio-psycho-social-spiritual-eco coaching methodology that shifts the focus of transformation from self-improvement to unfoldment. Unfoldment is an antidote to seemingly endless self-improvement projects and offers a way to navigate the complex system of crises we face. Formerly, I worked in the field of software development for 15 years both as a software engineer and a manager in large corporations and in smaller and more nimble companies. Today, I often coach leaders in hi-tech and bio-tech. I have been a professional coach since 2000 and a coach trainer since 2003, previously as senior faculty at New Ventures West from 2009-2019. I left the corporate world in 2006 and founded Aletheia in 2013. As of our ten-year anniversary, Aletheia has graduates on six continents (still working to break into the Antarctica market). I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and can often be found exploring and enjoying the surrounding nature or cooking when I'm not working as a coach or trainer." | transition, community, parts, IFS, unfolding, aletheia, identity, wasting time, integral | |||

I have made it my mission to promote self-doubt as a positive and purposeful influence in life. I came to this work after a lifelong struggle with self-doubt. I had been attempting to banish it out of my life with positivity. Then, during a particularly challenging episode, I began to question, well, if self-doubt keeps hanging around, maybe it’s got a purpose? When I qualified as a coach in 2017, I dedicated my practice to exploring ‘The Purpose of Self-Doubt’. My coaching approach was developed through a three-year independent study. I sampled the approach through 130 hours of coaching with 20 clients. To date, I have delivered over 500 hours of coaching using this method. The coaching relationship begins by welcoming self-doubt as a positive and purposeful influence.

24 | 42 | Kate Brassington | Living with and beyond trauma - A highly resilient single mum cancer survivor who's facing additional trauma is seeking to manage her everyday battles | https://gocoachinglab.com/vault/living-with-beyond-trauma-with-kate-brassington/ | https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XiDL76cU1rI8umnmKibmZ0E6cpitsIVM/view?usp=sharing | Kate is a Coaching Psychologist (GMBPsS) and ICF-certified Trauma Informed Coach. She did the MSc positive psychology and coaching psychology at the University of East London, finished in 2019. She's done further training and accreditation as a trauma-informed coach, kids meditation teacher, adult trauma-sensitive mindfulness, Havening Techniques practitioner, mental health first aid, and meaning and purpose guide. She’s a graduate member of the British Psychological Society and working towards Chartership as a coaching psychologist. She helps people move beyond their trauma, to ease suffering and get the fun back. The WHO published a study in 2016 estimating that 70% of people worldwide will have been exposed to a single traumatising experience. Yet only around 9% get a clinical diagnosis (such as PTSD) leading to treatment. This leaves a large delta of people with unacknowledged, or sub-clinical, after-effects of trauma exposure. It is likely that this is already in our coaching rooms. Kate works with the simple rule of thumb - therapists work ON trauma, coaches can learn to work WITH it. She dreams of a world where trauma is de-stigmatised, and coaches do what they are best at, by helping people move forward in life. There is not (yet) a blueprint for the kind of training and skills that would best prepare and protect coaches, and their clients, when trauma turns out to be present. Indeed, recent studies point out how exposed coaches, and their clients are, because of this gap. In this coaching lab, Kate hopes to demystify, and bring to life, a trauma-informed coaching session. Kate hangs out on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter. Her website is https://katebrassington.com/ | trauma, trauma-informed, resilience, cancer, single mum, transition, relationships | ||||

40 | 26 | Martin Stellar | Helping nice people sell more - Martin helps an introverted coach reframe what "selling" means to her to open the doors into how to get more clients. | https://gocoachinglab.com/vault/martin-stellar/ https://youtu.be/WRa3fWKnPXQ | https://drive.google.com/file/d/1t2h7XSKlgNBZ1DAV45j6U4fbwQ3vajtC/view?usp=share_link | Bio & Approach: Martin is a coach, a former monk, a coach for ethical sales & business growth, and a lifelong psychology fanatic. In his 20's, his eagerness to understand psychology, human nature and himself, caused him to join a monastery. He never really got to the point of fully understanding himself while there - but he did pick up a few useful lessons along the way, in terms of how to communicate, and how to relate to other people. Fast-forward a few decades, and he teaches, consults, and coaches business owners on how to grow their venture, while staying true to their values and integrity. Hence his strapline "I help nice people sell more". According to Martin, it just won't do that coaches with aggressive or unethical sales practices land clients, while good people get left behind, struggling to create clients or earn a decent living. That's why his mission is to show business owners who operate with heart and compassion how to attract, engage, and enrol buyers - and still sleep at night. Because nice people? Nice people should finish first. So in Martin's approach, there's no "5 Steps to close the sale" or "12 Ways to handle buyer objections", or any of the cookie-cutter hacks and tactics that so many sales coaches teach. Instead, Martin helps coaches see how "selling" (or: trading things of value with other people) is a natural and fundamental part of human nature, and how it's something we all do, all the time. (Hint: and most of us are naturally good at it!) This Coaching Lab session mixes coaching, consulting and teaching, and shows you a different way of looking at the enrolment process. Watch as Martin applies his decades of studying psychology and communication and business, to help the client overcome the same doubts, apprehensions and misconceptions, that prevent so many highly skilled coaches from landing clients. After all, humans are hard-wired for making connections and finding ways to move forward together - and in the end, "selling" is nothing more than that: Figuring out a way for the both of you to move forward, together, eagerly. You'll walk away with a different view on what selling is, what your buyers need from you during an initial consultation - and how you can have conversations about buying and money and commitment that aren't icky or uncomfortable, but instead cause your buyer to voluntarily step into a coaching relationship with you. | new coach, selling, sales, mentoring, reframe, business, introvert, visibility, | ||||

Rosie’s coaching aims to holistically support clients as they work towards making sense of psychedelic experiences and move towards a deeper sense of wellbeing and self-awareness. Rosie’s approach is itself integrative, her style of coaching interweaves the scientific and the spiritual, both eastern and the western philosophical stances, the practical and the existential, with a focus on the positive psychological aspects of a client’s life whilst also embracing aspects of the shadow that can emerge to be integrated within psychedelic states. Rosie's work draws heavily on positive psychology and coaching psychology from her postgraduate studies at UEL. As well as incorporating a scientific understanding of psychedelics from the latest research around psychedelics, she also has a shamanic understanding of psychedelic plant medicines (learned under a master ayahuascero of the Secoya lineage in the jungle of Costa Rica). Her work also incorporates a philosophical awareness through existential coaching (as studied with Yannick) and yogic philosophy and psychology (as studied in the YogaPoint Ashram in India). The talking aspect of Rosie's coaching is integrated with a range of practical tools from applied positive psychology and other holistic modalities in which she is qualified including yoga, meditation, mindfulness, nutritional therapy. | psychedelics, integration, poetry, | ||||

50 | 16 | Robert Stephenson | Narrative Coaching - perhaps not the way you think. Robert Stephenson, showcases his approach to coaching. | https://gocoachinglab.com/vault/robert-stephenson/ https://youtu.be/yKV3o51A2oU | N/A | Robert Stephenson is the Centre Director at Animas Centre for Coaching, the UK's largest coaching school, and he supports the Leadership Team across the globe. With a background that has roots in performance and theatre, Robert's journey to life coaching has taken him along a path of varied experience and learning and has forged his coaching style in the Narrative realm. Having originally trained as an actor and mime-artist, physical theatre was a big part of Robert's early work where he specialised in theatre and education within schools. This can be seen in his curiosity in the “client as character” within their own Narrative, enabled to re-write narratives/lives as they choose through deep exploration, openness and honesty with the self. Robert has been on an incredible journey of self-development and consistently expanded both his training and coaching skill set. Initially training as an NLP Practitioner and hypnotherapist, Robert went on to pass his Diploma in Transformational Coaching, before adding a number of other accredited coach training courses to his toolkit, including David Drake's Narrative Coaching, and Simon Western's Analytic Network Coaching.

51 | 14 | Dr. Magdalena Bak-Maier | Finding love through heart-mind integration (a wonderfully present and mindful session, solutions-focused, yet deep and powerful) | https://gocoachinglab.com/vault/dr-magdalena-bak-maier/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ffpyl1HdYck&list=PLEK9UENWT66C59hOtQfNlKXWtqurk4wIq&index=1 | N/A | Some people have a special ability to see people. This month we welcome one of those people to the Lab: Dr. Magdalena Bak-Maier. I've met Magdalena through our work at the Association for Integrative Coach-Therapy Practitioners and it didn't take her 5 minutes of what I thought was a casual chat to pick up on aspects of my character that took even close friends years to get their head around. Ever since I wanted to see her in action with a client and so I very much look forward to this session. Magdalena says: "There’s a way of being that is all head and little heart. Being this way can produce short-term results, but sustaining them can be a struggle. In fact, overlooking human need for connection harms relationships, hampers success and crushes life. It makes people spend time doing things they don’t care about with people they don’t like. But there’s another way. The alternative involves learning wisdom, compassion, love and curiosity. What I know for sure is that learning to connect heart and mind stands to transforms how we act and live. On a personal level, living with more heart changes how you experience and approach life and your ability to influence the world around you. Heart and Mind connection is my Talent, Skill and On-going Practice". Some people refer to me as the “Physician of the Soul”, a good number call me an “Angel”. All I can say is that I have simply learned to practice heart and mind connection and this is what I’m inviting others to experience and practice." Magdalena is a change maker committed to making our world a better place. She does this by teaching people how to operate with more ‘heart’. Connecting heart and mind is what she sees as the biggest challenge and opportunity for a better world, effective leadership and good self-management. Her work and research shows that developing the skill of balance and connection is vital for personal wellbeing, for individual and workplace productivity, for fulfilling relationships, for ending conflict, and for effective education. Her approach focuses on integration and working with the whole person. The evidence for the power of greater wholeness and balance is truly overwhelming and yet our mechanistic world seems rigged to make us act like machines instead of celebrating our humanity. Magdalena is on a mission to change this. She is also author of three books in the area of personal productivity, wellbeing and healing.

56 | 9 | Liz Goodchild | Person-centred, Life coaching for people who give a shit (Liz is abit of a legend in the Animas community and I just love her style) | https://gocoachinglab.com/vault/liz-goodchild/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcZlNlRD25Y | N/A | I've loved Liz's authentic, warm, reflective and person-centred style from the moment I met her. I also love that she swears a fair bit! :) Her writing has inspired me and she's also really smashed the business side of coaching. I can't wait to get an insight into Liz's coaching style in action and really look forward to the session. BIO & APPROACH Here's an excerpt from Liz's website https://www.lizgoodchild.co.uk "From feeling less stuck to making decisions that feel good, it’s all about doing the things you think you can’t—with me by your side and new confidence in your shiny red sidecar. After all, I know what your nagging little whispers say, speaking up in the back of your mind when the world goes quiet. “I need to change something. It’s time to show up. But where do I start? Can I start? Should I? I mean, things are fine. And fine is fine. Right? Juuuuuuust fine.” The mediocrity is sucking out your damn life force (likely with a bendy straw.) But through life coaching, I’ve learned how the heck to turn fine into fantastic. I’ve been a certified coach since 2013, running a full-time coaching practice via Skype. I’ve worked with hundreds of people over this time, from all walks of life, helping them to shake their lives up and feel more bolder, excited, confident and content. I get frustrated that we live in a world where asking for help, or admitting we haven’t got it all figured out, is seen as self-indulgent or fucked up, when in fact, I know the exact opposite to be true. And it’s this belief that forms the foundation of my writing and coaching approach. I’m honest and say it as it is. With kindness and a dash of kick-up-the-ass. I work with both women and men. I’m a certified coach, and yet beyond the qualifications nailed to my wall, I’ve learned how to help other people lead better lives through the lessons I’ve learned by living my own. From wanting to stick pencils in my eyes while sitting at the desk of my 9-5 in a corporate career that stifled me, to running ultra-marathons, to moving to a country I didn’t speak the language of—with a 4 month old baby in tow—I know that daily life can be fucking hard. But I also know that we can do hard things. My mum died when I was 18. She chose to end her life and her death was a huge wake-up call for me. It hit me—square in the heart—that we all get to choose who we are and how we live. As for me? I choose to live simply and brave, gravitating towards everything that nudges me towards personal and physical growth, and most importantly, that lets me just be me." | deep, presence, authenticity, | ||||

I love how Eric approaches coaching and appreciate his deep way of reflecting on his practice. I'm excited that he's agreed to showcase his way of working for us followed by what will surely be an inspiring discussion. BIO & APPROACH: Throughout his career Eric has helped thousands of clients - in more than 10,000 conversations - identify and free from themselves from internal and external barriers to create a life of greater purpose, fulfillment and meaning. As an advocate of excellence in the coaching profession, he also offers mentor coaching to executive, wellness and life coaches who are committed to improving their skills and/or pursuing ACC or PCC certification through the International Coaching Federation. A message from Eric: "Fellow Coaches: I am eager to be with you all next month. For 20 years, I have traveled tirelessly through myriad internal and external worlds, in light and shadow, collecting philosophies, methods, techniques, tools, totems, metaphors, poems, songs - anything at all that might help people free themselves from suffering. I bring everything I am and everything I have into each coaching session. A splash of existential philosophy, here. A dash of Buddhist cosmology, there. Sprinkles of neurobiology, CBT, DBT, ACT, IFS, PERMA. Tears, laughter. A moment of silence - or a full hour. Together, in real time, the client and I co-create the context and the conversation. We humble ourselves and make use of whatever the moment demands of us. It’s jazz. Or maybe gardening. Clients grab their instrument, they get on stage, and we play. Or, they grab their packet of seeds, their watering can, and we get down in the dirt together, dig in and get growing. When it’s all over (although it’s never over-over) it’s hard to say what has happened, exactly. But something, something magical; for we are both transformed." | ontological, PCC, authenticity, trauma, | ||||
