Integrating ADHD and Faith: Coaching Insights with Heidi Fishbein

In this edition of <a href="https://thecoachingedgepodcast.com/coaching-through-the-brain-how-positive-emotional-attractors-drive-real-change/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Coaching Edge Podcast</a>, cognitive neuroscientist Dr. Irena O’Brien unpacks the latest research on how our brains create lasting behavior change. Drawing on Richard Boyatzis’ work, she explains why coaches (and leaders) should spend roughly two-thirds of every conversation in the default-mode network—the space of vision, imagination, and the Positive Emotional Attractor—before shifting to the task-focused central-executive network. Listeners will learn practical ways to toggle between these networks, including heart-rate-variability breathing, self-compassion practices, and bringing personal values to the forefront. The result? More creativity, energy, and sustainable change—for clients and coaches alike.

Coaching Through the Brain: How Positive Emotional Attractors Drive Real Change

In this episode of <a href="https://thecoachingedgepodcast.com/fierce-kindness-emma-louise-elseys-guide-to-courageous-self-compassion/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Coaching Edge Podcast</a>, hosts Erwin de Grave and Dr. Steve Jeffs sit down with Emma-Louise Elsey, founder of <a href="https://www.thecoachingtoolscompany.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Coaching Tools Company</a> and creator of Fierce Kindness. Emma-Louise shares how her transition from corporate project manager—working for NatWest Bank and Ford Motor Company—led her to discover coaching as a career that truly values people over processes. Now with over 150 coaching tools and tens of thousands of newsletter subscribers, her mission is to help individuals tap into kindness as a powerful, courageous force. The conversation dives into why self-kindness often feels elusive in our VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous) world, and how cultural norms, guilt, and shame stand in the way. Emma-Louise reframes kindness as “Fierce”—not a passive niceness but a bold, strength-based practice that enables better boundary-setting, imposter‐syndrome management, and authentic self-care. She even outlines her PACT process—Pause, Ask, Choose, Time—so listeners can systematically tune into their needs and honor themselves. Rounding out the discussion, the trio explores work-life boundaries in a remote-first era, the future of coaching amid AI pressures, and the ripple effect of kindness: starting with self and flowing out to teams, families, and communities. Emma-Louise’s insights offer both inspiration and practical tools for coaches and anyone seeking to thrive by being kinder to themselves first.
