At the time of recording, Karl had just completed the Barefoot Coach Training Programme, an experience which he describes as being like riding his very own 'coach-acoaster'.

John Perry describes himself as a therapeutic coach, but that does not do him justice. You only have to hear him speak to understand just how much knowledge and experience he has gathered over his decades of client work, as well as (even more impressively) the curiosity and desire to always be learning, to tweak and to hone his craft.
John talks us through his view on how truly effective coaching focuses upon helping someone to focus less upon improving their self-esteem and more upon their self-worth. John describes the focus on self-esteem as being about constantly making improvements, moving forwards, and measuring worth by achievement. John tells us that working on self-worth is about helping the client to develop the sense that they are already worthwhile, that they were born worthwhile and that no matter what they do or don’t achieve, they are always worthwhile.
If you take an interest in coaching as a discipline that can be used to truly transform the way that someone sees themselves, then this episode will be for you.
John referenced many great resources for coaches and therapists during the episode, we have listed some of them here:

In this episode of Dancing in the Moment, Barefoot CEO, Kim Morgan speaks to Executive and Team Coach, Sandra Whiles.
Sandra’s cheeky letter to Kim resulted in this delightful conversation, described as a ‘splash of colour and light’. Here Sandra takes us through her coaching journey, the importance of finding the type of work that ‘feeds your soul’ and how she has found running a business during lockdown.
You will hear about Sandra’s new boundaries, about being more mindful and more in the moment and how she has enjoyed discovering new tools from the connections she has made during this year from across the globe. It’s ‘beautiful stuff’, we hope you enjoy listening.
Kim and Sandra got so caught up in chatting during the episode that they never got back to Sandra’s top tips for using an online platform to deliver coaching sessions, so we have included them here for you to see:
Lots of breaks and movement Welcoming background that reflects your style and approach Post it reminders in front of you 5 minutes of mindfulness before sessions Keep things simple – technology, slides and sharing Check-in, contract, content – build trust and psychological safety Team Coaching – work with a co-host – one looking after the technology and the other delivering to the group and then swap roles Group sessions and meetings – open the Zoom room early and let people have a coffee and chat before the session starts Most importantly – smile and be kindYou can find out more about Sandra and the work she does here.
