Now we’re navigating Zoom calls, AI tools, automated systems, and more options than ever before.But here’s what I keep coming back to:Technology has changed how we coach. It has not changed why we coach.In this conversation, we talk through what we’re seeing in the coaching space right now, including the shift from phone to video, how we think about scheduling and rhythms, and the growing presence of AI in coaching businesses.We’re not offering a step-by-step guide or telling you what tools to use.We’re inviting you into discernment.We talk about:How coaching platforms have evolved over timeWhy phone coaching still holds valueHow to use scheduling tools without losing marginWhat role AI can (and cannot) play in coachingCreating guardrails for your digital presenceWhy coaching remains an inside-out practiceIf you’re feeling overwhelmed by all the tools available—or unsure how to move forward with clarity—this conversation is meant to steady you.You don’t need every new tool.You don’t need to panic about AI.You do need to stay present, grounded, and aligned with your calling.FREE RESOURCES:Listen to our sister podcast the REALIFE Practice Podcast on your Favorite Podcast AppTake the FREE Intro to Needs & Values AssessmentReady to discover what uniquely matters to YOU?
