What does it really mean to be a coach?

from Passion Fit Coaching · host Lydia Dant

Have you got a coach or a training plan writer for your athletic journey? Do you have line managers or coaches in your working world? Tom and Lyd dive in to share their perspective of what it really means to be a coach and WHY they perceive a lot of coaches, to not actually be coaching... They share; how invested they are in individuals they work with, how they take time to understand what they need (which is different from what they want) and ultimately, see their roles as helping them to become the highest functioning versions of themselves (as people - not just athletes). What are your thoughts?

NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next. So tune in
