In this episode of <a href="https://thecoachingedgepodcast.com/how-dolphins-whales-and-one-womans-vision-built-a-coaching-movement-rooted-in-nature/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Coaching Edge Podcast</a>, Erwin de Grave and Dr. Steve Jeffs welcome Anne Gordon, founder of Whale Wisdom Retreats, animal behaviorist, and retreat leader who pioneered the whale-watching industry in Panama. What began as a childhood fascination with orcas evolved into a life dedicated to deep spiritual connection with dolphins, whales, and ultimately, with self. Anne shares her extraordinary journey from Hollywood animal trainer to zookeeper, and then to starting a tourism industry in a country that didn’t even realize it had whales. Throughout the conversation, she opens up about the emotional courage needed to follow your passion, face “no” with resilience, and let nature—not a PowerPoint—guide transformation. She discusses how her retreats harness the conscious intelligence of whales and dolphins to help clients reconnect to joy, abundance, and purpose. You'll also hear deeply insightful metaphors about how whales teach us to thrive during emotional storms and how we can create our own abundance by simply being who we are. Coaches, entrepreneurs, and anyone looking for a non-traditional but deeply profound approach to growth will find inspiration in Anne’s philosophy of going with the flow, even when it's uncomfortable—and creating success by following joy.

In this episode of <a href="https://thecoachingedgepodcast.com/from-hope-to-strategy-suzi-pomerantz-on-treating-coaching-like-a-business/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Coaching Edge Podcast</a>, hosts Dr. Steve Jeffs and Erwin de Grave sit down with Suzi Pomerantz, MCC and CEO of Innovative Leadership International, to unpack her 32-year entrepreneurial journey—from launching her firm in 1993 to coaching senior leaders across industries and continents. Suzi shares how she turned early ignorance into an asset with the help of a coach, reframed debt as tuition, and learned the disciplines of sales, systems, and client retention. Her core message: “Hope is not a strategy.” Treat coaching as a business—especially if you serve leaders inside organizations—by taking consistent, intentional action and being ready to pivot. Suzi introduces her practical “hats method” for role clarity (CEO, coach, CFO, sales, even “janitor”) and time allocation. The conversation explores AI’s promise and pitfalls: why it offers cognitive empathy but can’t replace the human presence, heart, and soul that create coaching “magic.” Suzi also stresses integrity in the profession: coaches need coaches, too.

Daniela maps the journey from fear and survival (Levels 1–2) to compassion and co-creation (Levels 4–5), explains the awareness → acceptance → choice sequence, and shows why practices like fitness and meditation only truly serve us when they come from an integrated sense of being, not compensation. A standout twist: Daniela brings puppets to leadership coaching—“Alvin” for Level 1 and “Vic” for Level 5—making heavy emotions visible, memorable, and safe to work with. The conversation dives into navigating toxic cultures, holding your state when rooms run on conflict, and inviting others to entrain to higher energy by modeling it, not controlling it.

Drawing on 12,000+ pages of verbatim 360° feedback and her new book You’re the Boss (Simon & Schuster, 2025), Sabina argues that pressure—not power—corrupts leaders. She introduces two deceptively simple antidotes: Blank Space (scheduled time to do “nothing” so insight can surface) and micro habits (behaviors so small they’re almost laughable—think one mindful breath a day). The conversation ranges from C-suite structure and pre-game rituals to practicing calm under low stakes so it’s available when it counts. Practical, contrarian, and deeply humane.

In this episode of <a href="https://thecoachingedgepodcast.com/method-acting-your-future-self-travia-stewards-become-framework-for-leaders/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Coaching Edge Podcast</a>, Erwin de Grave and Dr. Steve Jeffs sit down with former theatre educator turned executive coach Travia Steward. After 24 years teaching high school theatre—and a life-redefining cancer diagnosis—Travia discovered coaching as the arena where her passions for performance, psychology, and personal transformation converge. Drawing on the craft of method acting, she shows clients how to embody their future selves now—closing the gap between aspiration and action. Travia unpacks her BECOME framework: start with your Baseline (the operating system you’re running), Embody the identity you’re aiming for (artifacts, posture, environment), Clarify values and vision, Own your power (stop handing your “thermostat” to others), practice the Method daily (on-stage reps in real life), and Execute consistently to make identity-backed habits stick. Along the way, she introduces vivid metaphors—your invisible “soundtrack” and the overstuffed “suitcase” of old meanings—to help leaders rewrite unhelpful scripts, show up with presence, and turn values into behavior. Whether you’re pursuing a promotion, leading teams, or rebuilding confidence, Travia’s message is simple and empowering: identity before outcome—become the person who creates the result.

In this episode of <a href="https://thecoachingedgepodcast.com/courage-over-comfort-merci-miglino-on-mastery-misconceptions-and-fearless-coaching/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Coaching Edge Podcast</a>, MCC coach Merci Miglino traces her journey from political burnout to coaching mastery—and how teaching Level 1 & 2 coaches in China (via real-time translation!) sharpened her philosophy of radical simplicity. She argues that the leap from PCC to MCC is less about technique and more about confidence: the courage to ask direct questions, release attachment to outcomes, and work in the energizing space of not knowing. Merci spotlights fear as the hidden driver beneath indecision and “stuckness,” reframing the coach’s role as a synthesizer who surfaces the misconception creating the client’s current reality. She champions direct communication (as distinct from evoking awareness), shares powerful frames—“So what?” and “What’s the misconception here?”—and describes intuition as unconscious competence that coaches must dare to voice. We also touch on legacy, lightness vs. significance in decisions, and how confidence and intuition intertwine.

Dr Green also shines a light on vicarious trauma in helping professions, offering strategies for burnout prevention and self-care, while underscoring the importance of nervous system regulation in recovery.
