Secrets from a Coach podcast celebrates 200th episode
The Secrets from a Coach podcast hosted by wellness coach Debbie Green at Wishfish and TEDx speaker Laura Thomson-Staveley at Phenomenal Training today celebrates its 200th episode.
Marking a journey that began during lockdown, the podcast has since seen 44,000 downloads. The first episode on imposter syndrome, which remains one of their most popular, has received 770 downloads to date. Since then, the team has gone from strength to strength, committing to weekly recordings with special guests covering topics to help listeners in the world of work.
Episode 200 is part of the Summer Happy Hour series – consisting of quick 10 min shots to refresh during the summer heat – the ‘Grin and Tonic’ episode looks at finding, preserving and creating positive energy to bring back to the workplace post-summer holidays.
Debbie Green, wellness coach and podcast host, said: “We’re incredibly proud to have reached our 200th episode and grateful to all our listeners for their continued support. The feedback we regularly receive is that the Secrets from a Coach podcast is now an integral part of team meetings, workshops and personal development work. We’re pleased to be inspiring listeners to thrive and maximise their potential in the workplace – and look forward to the next two hundred!”
Recent key themes for the podcast include:
July: Customer Service Excellence
July’s first episode marked the mid-year point with a reminder about the power of taking a moment to pause, process and reflect on the past six months to set up well for the next. The Stoics practised the art of ‘savouring’ our past successes to boost confidence, endurance and energy to face the future challenges and opportunities.
Debs and Lau then moved onto a three-part mini-series about customer service and the role it plays in enabling organisations to thrive now and into the future. As more service experiences are becoming automated or augmented, for example with AI-enabled chatbots, being human is fast becoming the premium service differentiator. So how can we maximise every moment when providing a service experience with a customer, client, patient, passenger, student or internal stakeholder?
August: Summer Happy Hour
This month, Debs and Lau enjoyed a Summer Happy Hour, where learning is free and there’s enough for everyone. Episodes during August were a quick 10 min shot to refresh and reset your intention, delicious content mixed with some cool beach bar music vibes.
As ever, the podcast is bursting with practical ideas for boosting or sustaining motivation. Ideal sundowner for those wanting a supportive and inspirational pep talk.
August’s episodes cover:
- Mojo Mojito (10 mins shot on motivation)
- People Colada (10 mins shot on compassion)
- Aperformance Spritz (10 mins shot on performance)
- Expressive Martini (10 mins shot on communication)
- Grin and Tonic (10 mins shot on energy)
September: Confidence
Debs and Lau explore confidence during September, from developing strong inner confidence for outer presence to overcoming bullying bosses and the trauma they wreak.
Confidence is essential to our success at work and in life – and the pair take a deep dive into the part it plays in enabling us to be able to achieve our hopes and dreams.
Practical steps to pursuing your career dream and best practices for stepping up as a first-time leader are also included in this month’s discussions, alongside a series of special guests sharing their own stories and advice too.
Lasting a snackable 30 minutes, making it ideal for the commute, lunch break or even a well-deserved break for self-care and development, Secrets from a Coach offers practical learning based on current realities. A brand-new episode is published every Friday lunchtime, focusing on positive actions to help you thrive and maximise your potential in the ever-evolving workplace, and in life.
