We’re excited to launch season two with an episode with the unique Catherine Stagg-Macey.
Catherine is an Executive and Team Coach like no other. Holding a line between a heavy hitting woman in tech with all the credentials and smarts – and a colourful creative force of nature who you may find working as a DJ and dance facilitator with 5 Rhythms. Kermit the Frog lives in her house and is sometimes part of her coaching conversations, while at the same time she’s a Coach I’d trust to walk in with me to the most fiery and scary senior lead team conversations where experience, poise and gravitas are the only way.
She shares practical real-life tools and ideas to help you move into freelance work from the big job. Something she did with plenty of wobbles and moments of exhaustion - but wow, is she flying now.
A natural stroy-teller, you can also find Catherine's own podcast Unsaid At Work - link below. Here she describes herself as the Wing Woman to midcareer leaders who are losing their mojo.
I’ve been extremely fortunate to travel along with Catherine, originally as my Coach Supervisor and now peer, thinking partner and friend. Catherine was the first coach I remember who was really able to navigate that challenging path between leadership coaching & therapeutic coaching in the same breath. She helped me to keep my wheels on, in a professional context as I negotiated personal loss while in a leadership role. A reminder of the massive impact of great coaching and supervision.
Since then, I’ve watched and listened as she’s evolved into next level Catherine – a digital presence, a podcast, writer of a regular hilarious newletter. This is a tiny dip into her amazing pool of wisdom as she shares some of her lessons learned and reflections that could be really useful to us all now as we build a coaching business. She’s open about the mistakes made in building her coaching business as well as some ways to make real progress commercially.
