Writing on leadership,
the body, and what shifts
Occasional writing — not a schedule, just when something is worth saying. On embodied intelligence, what the science actually tells us, and what becomes possible when you stop leading from the neck up.
The Space Between Questions, Where I Finally Felt Like a Coach
It's been nearly four years since I delivered my first coaching session, and today, I finally feel like a coach.
No more identity crises. No hesitation when someone asks what are you. I am a coach, and a good one at that.
The transition wasn't easy. The past twelve months especially - after leaving my C-suite identity without having fully established myself as a full-time coach who pays the bills through coaching alone. I still haven't reached that point. But something shifted recently, something quiet and undeniable. I realised I'm no longer in the void of becoming the next iteration of me. I'm no longer floating, uncertain, unanchored.
I am a coach. I can't help it.
