The Thriving Coaches Podcast

In this episode, I'm joined by my friend and colleague Ankush Jain – coach, teacher, speaker, founder of Coaching Career School, and author of the new book Awakening the Coach Within.

We talk about the real journey behind building a coaching practice: the early days, the missteps, the breakthroughs, and the insights that shaped everything that came after. This is a very open, very human conversation about what it actually takes to do this work in a grounded, sustainable way.

In this conversation, we explore:

• What the early years of a coaching business really look like

• Why seeing coaching as a calling changes everything

• How generosity plays a surprising role in client creation

• Why trust and relationship will matter more than ever in the years ahead

• The courage and clarity behind Ankush's new book

If you're a coach — new or experienced — this is a conversation worth hearing.

In this extract from a recent live session, Jamie explores the value of a principles understanding in times of crisis.

The world is shifting fast — with AI, volatility and uncertainty reshaping how we live and work. Yet there's something deeper, unchanging, that every human being has access to.

In this episode, Jamie shares:

• Why AI might soon outthink (and outwork) us — and why that's not the real issue

• What humanity still has that no technology can replicate

• And how awakening to the truth of who you really are might just be our best path forward

A sobering yet hopeful reflection on what it means to navigate life from wisdom, wellbeing and purpose.
