Two Coach Podcast

Hey Everyone,

In today's episode, we are joined by Jo Naughton. Jo brings over fifteen years of experience and qualifications in the fields of teaching, consulting, and coaching to her work with change-makers and purpose-led entrepreneurs. She supports her clients to do deep inner work in order to develop a mindset for abundance, freedom, and for joy. From this place, she then empowers them to create their own aligned strategy for business and for life.

Her experience and skills as a coach and mentor are combined with a deep personal understanding of the power of the mind. After a traumatic brain injury in 2017, Jo was fuelled on a personal journey that has been nothing short of transformational, enabling her to help her clients rapidly experience breakthroughs within their own mindset. 

In this episode, we talk about:

• How Jo has spent the last few years developing her own confidence after experiencing a life-changing accident
• Why often individuals will only change after a significant trauma, and if it’s possible to make the same types of changes without experiencing a significant trauma
• We discuss that what’s going on on the outside doesn’t always equal what’s going on on the inside
• Jo explains her decision to create confidence on purpose, and what that looks like for Jo
• Calling BS on that voice inside your head that tells you that you’re not confident
• Whether something is true or not is irrelevant, the important part is whether what you believe is serving you! 
• How the mind constantly seeks evidence to confirm what we believe to be true and will do anything it can to find that evidence
• Jo’s belief that confidence is an emotion, and therefore can be created through her thoughts
• The power our internal language has on our confidence, and therefore how important it is  to consciously choose words that strengthen our confidence
• The difference between blaming ourselves, and taking personal responsibility for what we do and what we think
• Confidence in self-being our natural state until our ego starts to develop and impact how we see ourselves
• How Jo’s work is supporting clients across the globe to wake up and live on purpose

A vibrant, fun, lively conversation with plenty of outstanding content. Jo’s energy is infectious and refreshing, she brings a unique balance of understanding and compassion with an open and direct approach. She’s never afraid to call out the BS in a quest to facilitate self-awareness, self-trust, and self-love. For anyone looking to gain a greater understanding of how their mindset is affecting their confidence this episode is for you.

Hey Everyone,

In today's episode we are joined by Steve Marriott. Steve is a behavioural specialist combining over 25 years of experience with the latest findings in neuroscience, and performance psychology. Steve is the co-author of two books, is a prolific facilitator, speaker and performance coach working in the UK and Europe.

His clients include some of the largest companies in some of the most regulated industries in the world. He has majored in developing leadership capability for the twenty-first century.  Steve has a unique ability to translate the complexity of behaviour and culture into accessible and actionable dialogue, coupled with his direct and frank approach enables him to engage, inspire and stimulate learning with the most challenging of audiences.

In this episode, 

• Steve shares his belief that humans are at their best when they feel confident
• We discuss the importance of children being absent of judgement and how that affects their confidence 
• Steve shares that for him, confidence has internal and external components. How we feel inside, and what feedback is being received from outside
• We explore how some individuals have unconsciously created an identity around confidence, and for many this has led to them believing that they’re not a confident person
• A lifelong introvert Steve shares how he has managed and developed his internal dialogue in order to interact with world around him
• Steve tells the story of his Father not being satisfied with his academic results and how the phrase, “that’s not an A” significantly impacted his confidence
• How at times Steve has decided not to look at certain pieces of information in order to protect his confidence 
• Steve suggests that when action happens our beliefs meet our values, and why it’s important to be aware of this happening 
• Our conversation finds us discussing social stereotypes, and how easy it can be to fall into the story that, “I’m just not a confident person”
• Steve openly shares the distressing and very scary story of being caught up in an armed robbery and the lasting impact that has had on his confidence
• We take a moment to reflect on the question, Why is this a universal issue?
• The episode ends with Steve sharing his insights about the power of Courageous Conversations

Yet another outstanding episode. Steve speaks with passion, honesty and emotion, sharing years of knowledge and experience of human behaviour. We cover a lot of ground in this episode, from real life events which have shaped Steve’s journey, to understanding how human behaviour can help or hinder our confidence. We go deep at times and laugh at others, this really is a wonderful conversation to experience.

Hey Everyone,

Welcome to episode 20 of the Two Coach Confidence podcast. Our aim with this podcast is to bring fun and interesting guests from all areas and walks of life to share their knowledge, stories and experiences of this mystical and subjective topic we refer to as confidence.

In today's episode we are joined by Chris Chapman. Chris has recently transitioned to the Learning Experience Manager at UK Coaching, having previously been the Development Lead Officer for Talent and Performance Coaching. Much of Chris’ time is now focused on the development of great coaching content to support coaches to be the best they can be.  

Prior to working in coach development Chris worked at the Rugby Football League for 12 years in the Performance Department. During this time he coached England age group teams from U15 through to U20; more recently coaching the England Women Rugby League team to two World Cups. 

In this episode, we discuss

• How women are generally more emotionally aware and willing to share, compared to men who generally shut down and go inside
• How Chris purposefully avoided the media during the early stages of of his International Coaching role and how he developed his confidence to manage the media 
• We explore the idea of giving people the opportunity to be their best even if they don’t meet the required standard
• Chris poses the question, Are we communicating what we need when it comes to confidence? And why this is an important question to ask ourselves
• The idea of “tipping in” what’s going right, instead of what needs improving or what has potentially gone wrong
• Chris shares the C4 methodology and that when each of the areas are in place the environment individuals and teams are performing in becomes “explosive”
• That even to this day receiving positive feedback for his achievements or performance is difficult for Chris to accept, and how he’s working on just saying, thank you
• As a coach it’s important to understand what makes people feel confident as only they will know that
• The wonderful idea of creating your own “greatest hits” in order to develop and grow your confidence
• That the people you surround yourself with can often see things you cannot, which when shared can help to build confidence

Chris is incredibly humble, and shares openly and generously. It would be easy to assume that because of the level Chris performs he would have everything figured out. What’s amazing about Chris is that he’s vulnerable enough to say he hasn’t got everything figured out, and that there are numerous areas in life he struggles with, including some that might surprise you! This conversation is powerful and deep and undoubtedly has something for every listener.

Hey Everyone,

For the second time on the show we welcome back a previous guest. Due to the rich and diverse conversation we had with this guest the first time round, we thought it only right to invite   today's guest back for another episode. It’s our pleasure to welcome Adams' former coach Robbie Swale.

Just in case you haven't listened to episode 14, here's a recap of who Robbie is. Robbie trained as a coach with The Coaching School in London and later with many other masters who support people to fulfil their potential. Robbie has provided coaching, training and facilitation for: Swiss Re, The University of Edinburgh, BetterUp (and through them many of the most forward-thinking companies in the world) and King’s College London. Robbie predominantly works one-on-one with leaders and entrepreneurs who are grappling with the complexity of the modern world.

In this episode we talk about,

• Robbies journey to creating his 12 minute writing practice and the importance this has played in his confidence
• The importance of creating some sort of creative practice no matter how big or small, and the connection this has to confidence
• We discuss the magic all humans have to create something from nothing
• The fragility of confidence, and for Robbie his fragility to speak and share more of himself with the world
• How Robbie based his decision to share his writing initially on LinkedIn, as at the time he believed it wasn’t a platform many people used
• We discuss that humans are writing more than ever, with email, texts, instant messages and therefore it’s not necessarily a writing practice that's the problem for people wanting share their work or more of themselves
• Robbie shares the challenges he often has around feeling sad and fragile in a morning and the routine he’s created to improve his state before engaging with the wider world 
• We discuss what Robbie refers to as the “vulnerability hangover” and what lies after the hangover subsides
• The topic of COVID enters the conversation, and how our perception of confidence in a safe vaccine is developed through trust in things most of us know nothing about
• As we come to the end of the conversation Robbie shares the idea of re committing, and the power re committing has for many areas of our lives

Another wonderful conversation full of feeling and vulnerability. Robbie is clearly a deep thinker and has found a real gift for sharing his thoughts through a cathartic writing practice. There’s a number of principles and ideas which Robbie has created which can be picked up and shaped for various areas of life, not least developing confidence even when there’s a sense of fragility.
