The UpLevel Podcast
Conscious leaders create conscious cultures.
The UpLevel Podcast is a transformational resource for leaders, coaches, and people managers who are ready to lead with greater presence, purpose, and humanity.
With 85% of employees disengaged at work and mental health challenges
costing organizations thousands per employee each year, the demand
for emotionally intelligent, trauma-aware, and consciously coached leadership
has never been more urgent.
Each episode explores what it truly means to uplevel within ourselves, our organizations, and the systems we move through. Themes include emotional embodiment, grief, right relationship coaching culture, and the ROI of investing in human well-being.
Named one of the web’s Top 10 Coaching Culture Podcasts and a Top 50 Best Workplace Mental Health Podcast by Feedspot, the show is a core part of UpLevel’s mission to build a more conscious, compassionate, and humane world by making deep, healing, and actionable conversations accessible to all.
Hosted by Christie Mann, certified coach, author, and co-founder of UpLevel,
the podcast invites you not just to do better, but to be better.

Wisdom From Our Elders Part V | Stewardship: What Are You Entrusted to Carry Forward?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What are you being asked to carry forward?
This question opens Season 11 of The UpLevel Podcast, a season focused on Stewardship: Being the Work.
And to kick it off, we return to a conversation that has become a meaningful annual ritual. This International Coaching Week 2026, we gather a circle of elders—mentors, teachers, and leaders whose wisdom has shaped us and so many others.
These are the people who walked the path before us, who held the work before we knew how to hold it, and who, in many ways, made it possible for us to be here.
In this conversation, hear from:
- Caroline Hall, MA, CPCC, PCC
- Clark Friedrichs, MCC & CPCC
- Deborah Colman, Master Certified Coach, MCC, CPCC, MA (Ed.)
- Dori Ben-Chanoch, PCC, CPCC
- Joni Mar, MCC, CPCC, CNTC, CTIC
Together, we explore what it means to step into eldership as a way of being, a way of releasing the need to prove and stepping fully into contribution. Listen now!
In this episode, we’ll explore:
- The connection between stewardship, leadership, and elderhood
- What it means to carry wisdom forward without holding too tightly to it
- How to stay relevant, present, and human in a rapidly changing world
- The role of relationship as the foundation of leadership
- What today’s leaders are being called to protect, nurture, and pass on
Panel:
Deborah Colman, Master Certified Coach, MCC, CPCC, MA (Ed.)
