In this episode, Sam’s guest is Graham Lee, a leadership coach, coach supervisor and author whose work explores how emotional states shape behaviour, presence and relational effectiveness under pressure. Drawing on decades of experience in psychotherapy, coaching, mindfulness and leadership development, he helps coaches, consultants and leaders work with the deeper emotional patterns that can limit choice, courage and connection. His current work centres on Breakthrough Conversations, an approach that supports people to move beyond insight into embodied shifts in how they relate, lead and act. His most recent book is ‘Breakthrough Conversations for Coaches Consultants and Leaders’ (Routledge, 2022).
