Here’s the paradox that we discussed when I was invited to join Rob Lawrence from the Association for Coaching in a podcast on the important topic of Life Coaching for men:

In Episode 2 of their 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗲𝗻 𝗽𝗼𝗱𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀, host Rob Lawrence speaks with me, Vicky Kelly about my experience of working with males, often whom are high‑performing professionals, business owners and CEOs.
