S3 Episode 01: What is Coaching? with Claire Pedrick and Su Blanch
Wednesday Jan 04, 2023
Wednesday Jan 04, 2023
We open Season 3 at The Coaching Inn asking the question: What is coaching?
If you’re not sure, this is for you! Claire and Su talk about the impact coaching might have for things that you want to think through, are struggling with or need some focus on. Together, we look at what coaching is from the perspective of the Thinker: what would it be like if you had a safe space to do the thinking you need to? What might the impact of that be? And how does it feel having a conversation where you get to choose your own destination and how you get there?
Share with us what you think coaching is from the seat of the Thinker! And get in touch if you’d like some coaching.

S2 Episode 41: The Art of Disclosure in Coaching with Nishe Patel
Wednesday Nov 16, 2022
Wednesday Nov 16, 2022
Coach, Supervisor and Trainer Nishe Patel shared a post on Linked In:
“If coaching is a partnership, should the coach’s experience and thinking be shared more freely?
I’ve been going back and forth over this question for quite some time now, and it’s challenged how I see coaching. As much as my focus is on my clients and what they want to achieve, I feel I may be missing opportunities to support them further by not bringing more of myself into our shared conversation.
I recognise the value of placing emphasis on the client, after all, they are the focus of our session. However, I feel we sometimes forget that the coach is a person too. And the value they can offer expands well beyond supporting clients to figure things out for themselves.”
So I asked her if she wanted a chat at The Coaching Inn. It was great fun - and here it is.
