Ep 35: Stretch, Reflect, Grow: The Coach’s Journey Through Challenge
How do coaches truly grow when they step outside their comfort zones? In this episode, hosts Rebecca Daniel and Sarah Bramhall ask: What does it mean to stretch as a coach, both personally and professionally?
Join Rebecca and Sarah as they explore the conscious process of self-development, sharing their own stories of discomfort, excitement, and growth. Discover practical insights on how to lean into challenge, whether you’re confronting new coaching situations, sitting with silence, navigating complex organisational dynamics, or balancing ethical dilemmas.
