  • Coaching Through the Brain: How Positive Emotional Attractors Drive Real Change
    Jul 9 2025

    In this edition of The Coaching Edge Podcast, 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.

  • Fierce Kindness: Emma-Louise Elsey’s Guide to Courageous Self-Compassion
    Jul 2 2025

    In this episode of The Coaching Edge Podcast, hosts Erwin de Grave and Dr. Steve Jeffs sit down with Emma-Louise Elsey, founder of The Coaching Tools Company 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.

  • The Quiet Power of Simplicity in Coaching: Wendy Buckingham’s 25-Year Journey
    Jun 25 2025

    In this episode of The Coaching Edge Podcast, hosts Erwin de Grave and Steve Jeffs sit down with coaching veteran Wendy Buckingham, whose career spans more than 25 years. Wendy shares her journey from journalist and business owner to one of Australia’s first trained life coaches, offering a compelling look into the early days of the profession and how it has evolved.


    Wendy speaks candidly about the dilution of coaching’s core essence, the risks of over-niching, and the overwhelming complexity that new coaches often face. She champions the fundamentals of life coaching—listening, questioning, and facilitating client growth—while expressing concerns over the commodification and saturation of the industry.


    She also explains why phone coaching can be more intimate than face-to-face sessions, the importance of training and certification, and how her communication skills and writing background helped her educate and empower through her popular website, Life Coaching Professionally.


    Listeners will appreciate Wendy’s clarity, humility, and commitment to preserving coaching integrity while supporting the next generation of coaches.
