In The Business of Coaching: Perspectives on Becoming a Working Coach, host Whitney Dawn Pyles is joined by Sarah Howells and Mike Simon for an honest, grounded conversation about what it’s looked like for them to build their coaching practices.
This conversation weaves lived experience, professional reflection, and somatic insight to ask:
What becomes possible when we let go of one “right way” to succeed and listen to what our nervous systems need?
In this episode:
- Becoming a working coach through process, not perfection
- Building a coaching practice alongside other work as one valid pathway
- Titles, niches, and evolving professional identity
- Financial safety, nervous-system regulation, and sustainability
- Redefining success beyond external achievement
This episode is an invitation to honor your own path into coaching work, whether that’s gradual, nonlinear, supported by other work, or something entirely your own, and to remember that coaching businesses, like people, grow in many ways.
