To continue the Coaching Catalysts fifth anniversary celebration, co-hosts Rebecca Daniel and Sarah Bramall are joined by community members Celine Adout and Annie Knowles, both supervisees in the Supervision Collective.
Celine Adout shares her journey from advising across continents to working with high-stakes leaders and developing her own decision-making methodology, while Annie Knowles reflects on her transition from decades in the NHS to sobriety coaching after personal experience with burnout and change.
