S5 Episode 52: The Power of Clean Language in Coaching and How to Embrace Messiness with Jackie Lawlor

Do you ever wonder whether the messiness in your mind impacts your conversations? How on earth do you have a conversation with someone who seems to think differently from you? If coaching models and techniques feel like an impenetrable jungle, this episode is for you!

 

Claire Pedrick sits down with Jackie Lawlor to talk about that! Jackie shares personal stories from her early life, her experiences with neurodivergence, and how these have shaped her coaching practice. We dive into the importance of embracing human messiness and diverse perspectives, and how coaching can become more accessible to everyone.

 

And if you’re listening live, the next Birmingham Coaches walk is open to all professional coaches and is on 14th Nov 2025 at Lickey Hills Country Park. Details here
