What a treat this week's episode is for your ears and inspiration. I connected with guest Dr Hayley Kelly earlier this year after seeing her share an episode on her podcast Therapists Rising about the dark side of coaching. I am sure that is not a surprise to you that I listened immediately! That listening experience confirmed that I had to connect with this inspiring soul, and so I did. Fast forward to now and I am so excited to share this episode with you. You'll hear us talk about Dr Hayley's transition from therapist to coach for therapists and our shared mission to bring an often missing professionalism and integrity to the coaching industry.
