Become A Trauma Informed Coach
Are you a coach who's afraid to use the "T" word (Trauma) on your calls? Or you that trauma is a thing, that it happens, but not much more (because you’re not sure if you want to know more)? If any of this resonates (or you just want to know more about how, as coaches, we can support clients carrying trauma), this podcast is for you. Bringing our lack of understanding into the light is necessary to support ourselves—and clients—during calls. Now coach, I am NOT HERE to induce fear or paralysis in your coaching—bleh. I am here to help you 1) see what you’re potentially not seeing, 2) reaffirm 10000% that you absolutely can do something about it, and 3) reinforce the notion that we all start somewhere (it’s ok to be where you’re at right now)! There is SO MUCH you can do to support clients carrying trauma—as well as understanding the limitations we have as coaches—so that they can receive the care they are in search of. I believe that being Trauma-Informed is an Essential Standard of Care for every coach in the coaching industry. I have a vision of every coach being Trauma-Informed.

Men and Emotional Processing? We don't see enough of it in today's world . . .
In Part 1 of this 2 part episode series, host Lindsay Poelman interviews Dan Gurley, the first male guest on the podcast. Dan shares his journey from growing up in a high-demand Southern Christian culture to dealing with severe family trauma and emotional struggles. He discusses the impact of his high-pressure upbringing, his experiences with spiritual bypassing, and the profound challenges he faced as a father.
The conversation delves into the processing of emotions, the concept of spiritual bypassing, and the importance of emotional healing. Dan's story illustrates the need for self-compassion and inner child work, particularly for men navigating complex emotional landscapes. This episode highlights the significance of trauma-informed coaching and provides a compelling case for Lindsay's certification program in emotional recovery and healing.
