According to the author Oliver Burkeman we each have approximately 4,000 weeks to run around on our planet.

Some people will get a few more weeks and some will get a few less, but Burkeman’s point is that our time to enjoy life is finite.

In this episode we dive into Burkeman’s thought-provoking book 4,000 Weeks: Time and How to Use It. Join us as we explore its main themes and how they might assist us in the coaching room. The title of the book makes it sound like a time-management tomb, but in reality it is more of an existential reflection on our relationship with time and on how we might have a more realistic sense of what we have time for.

Join us for this podcast where we explore Oliver Burkeman’s ideas and how they provide us with a way of exploring what is important for our coachee to focus on as they navigate their finite time on earth.

We know that contracting at the beginning of a coaching relationship is vital and an integral part of our coaching. It sets the parameters within which we will work with our clients. Ending the coaching relationship should be seen as another vital and integral stage in a coaching journey. The ending may, however, raise some questions, cause some confusion and may even result in some discomfort.

How do we know when it’s time to say goodbye to our coachee? How do we end the coaching ethically and with compassion? What if our coachees don’t want to say goodbye?

In this episode we explore these questions, for the benefit of the coach and the coachee.

Tom was delighted to have the opportunity to interview Dr Hannah Coysh, who completed our Doctors’ Transformational Coaching Diploma a couple of years ago now.

Tom thoroughly enjoyed the conversation, and you’ll understand why when you listen to the podcast and experience a taste of Hannah’s infectious enthusiasm for life.

Hannah is a Frailty GP, A Lifestyle Medic and Coach, a New to GP Coach and Mentor, a Medical Student Tutor, and also offers coaching to those experiencing pregnancy loss, holding a safe space for them and helping them to find a way to move forward. Hannah manages to incorporate coaching into all aspects of her professional life.

Hannah is also the person who introduced us to the world of Lifestyle Medicine and suggested that we share our coaching offering with doctors operating within that arena.

Tom caught up with Hannah to find out about her journey into the world of lifestyle medicine and coaching, and her current approach to coaching. Tom asked Hannah about her favourite coaching tools and questions and what learning to coach has given her.

Hannah also talks about her passion for the outdoors and her enthusiasm for an activity that Tom was happy to leave her to enjoy without him.
