  • From Public Service to Professional Coach with Sandra Whiles

    From Public Service to Professional Coach with Sandra Whiles
    2025/09/28
    In this episode, Sarah is joined by Sandra Whiles, a coach, mentor, and author. Sandra shares her journey from a long and successful career in public service, including twelve years as a Chief Executive of a council, to becoming a professional coach. She discusses the motivations behind this significant career transition, the importance of leaving a role well, and how she found a new way to make a difference. Sandra also talks about the process of writing her new book on coaching, The Coaching Tools Compendium. Key Takeaways Understanding your core values, such as challenge and security, is crucial for navigating career crossroads and making decisions that feel aligned with who you are. A successful career transition involves practical planning. This can include getting qualified, seeking support from a coach or network, and giving yourself time and space to explore what comes next. When starting a new business, it is useful to focus on the activities that generate energy and connection, like meeting people, rather than getting distracted by perfecting things like a website early on. Building a support team is just as important in self-employment as it is in an organisation. Recognise what you are not good at, or get no energy from, and find others who can help. Episode Highlights 03:20: What first drew Sandra to a career in the public sector. 05:35: The realisation of the impact a leader can have on culture and people, and the desire to become a Chief Executive. 11:30: The external prompts and internal realisations that led to the decision to train as a professional coach. 27:00: Lessons learned from starting a business, including avoiding "comparisonitis" and the distraction of shiny objects. 38:10: The philosophy behind Sandra's book – moving beyond a simple list of tools to help coaches develop their own practice and confidence.

  • How 2025 started and what's next for the Do Good & Do Well Podcast

    How 2025 started and what's next for the Do Good & Do Well Podcast
    2025/08/26
    This month, I’m taking some time for deeper reflection, and I wanted to share some of that with you. This special episode is a collection of standout moments from this year's conversations, all woven around the central theme of purpose. You'll hear clips from all of my incredible 2025 guests, each sharing insights that made me pause and think. We explore why we do the work we do, what gets in the way, and what this idea of 'purpose' truly means. I've created this as a space for you to reflect, too. As you listen, I invite you to consider what resonates, what challenges you, and what small steps you might want to take next in your own journey. Key Takeaways Your Past Shapes Your Leadership: Our personal histories and childhood experiences create patterns that show up in our leadership. To lead effectively and authentically, we must do the work to understand our own "stuff" and how it impacts our teams and mission. It's not about becoming a different leader, but a better version of yourself. Purpose is an Evolution, Not a Destination: The values that drive you are not set in stone. As you grow and experience the world, your understanding deepens. A value of 'kindness' might evolve into 'fairness,' which might then become a commitment to 'justice' and 'liberation.' This non-linear journey is a natural and powerful part of living a purpose-driven life. Small Actions Create Big Ripples: You don't need to have all the answers or a grand plan to start making a difference. Change can begin with something as simple as changing your language to be more inclusive, starting a conversation with your community, or simply sharing your story. These small, deliberate acts have a ripple effect you may never fully see. Ground Yourself Before You Act: In moments of pressure, it's easy to fall into old habits like people-pleasing. Before making a decision, use a simple framework like the 'Five Cs' to check in with yourself: How Calm, Clear, Curious, Courageous, and Compassionate am I? This pause allows you to act from a place of intention rather than reaction. Episode Highlights 10:00 Astrid Korin introduces the Five Cs model—Calm, Clear, Curious, Courageous, and Compassionate—as a practical tool for leaders to ground themselves before making decisions. 18:23 Keri Jarvis shares the story of how her values evolved from 'freedom' to 'liberation' and how the despair following a general election catalysed the creation of the Southend Care Bank. 24:40 Siobhan Strode on the pivotal childhood experience that shaped her mission to combat apathy and ensure women's stories are heard and no longer silenced. 35:45 Accountant Kirsty Heywood-MacDonald describes the practical and empowering support her firm offers, including bespoke accommodation plans and mental health check-ins, to create a truly disability-inclusive service.

  • Unpacking Your Story: From Achilles' Heel to Superpower with Katherine Powell

    Unpacking Your Story: From Achilles' Heel to Superpower with Katherine Powell
    2025/07/17

    Welcome to a deeply insightful episode of Do Good and Do Well with the brilliant Katherine Powell. Join us as we explore what happens when we truly listen to our inner selves, the wisdom of slowing down, and how stories we've inherited shape us. Katherine, an executive coach, supervisor, and transactional analytic counselor, shares her journey and philosophy of leading "just as they are." This conversation is not about quick fixes, but about the profound power of self-respect, curiosity, and non-judgment as ultimate superpowers.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Our early life experiences and inherited stories can shape our behaviour and beliefs, often leading to patterns that may not serve us in adulthood.

    • Recognising when our strengths become Achilles' heels is crucial for personal and professional growth.

    • Pausing and creating space for self-reflection can help us connect with our inner knowing and make choices that align with our true selves.

    • Cultivating self-respect, non-judgment, and curiosity are powerful tools for personal well-being and effective leadership.

    • Understanding and working with our internal narratives allows for deeper, long-lasting personal and professional transformation.

    Episode Highlights:

    • 04:10 - Katherine discusses her "people curious" nature and career path leading to coaching.

    • 10:50 - The concept of internalised messages from childhood and their impact on adult behaviour.

    • 16:15 - How understanding her own "Achilles heel" allowed Katherine to choose self-respect.

    • 21:00 - The role of coaching in creating a pause and focusing on what can be controlled.

    • 38:00 - How to let go of attachment to identity when considering a career shift.

    • 40:20 - A practical exercise for exploring identity.
