E397 | David Clancy | Pivoting in Your Career, Filtering Your Passions & Building Relationships
David Clancy is a world-class sports physio and author who’s taken more than a few sharp turns in his career. He’s had to face the same questions many of us wrestle with: Do I stay in the safe lane or risk starting over? How do I manage different passions without spreading myself too thin? What do I do with that voice in my head telling me I don’t belong?
In this episode, David and I dig into the practical side of career pivots and personal growth, including:
•The real reasons people avoid changing direction—even when they know they’re unhappy.
•How to make a career shift without blowing up everything you’ve built.
•Why imposter phenomenon can be a sign you’re on the right track, and how to keep it from paralyzing you.
•The challenge of chasing multiple passions and what filters help you decide what’s worth pursuing.
•How relationships—not networking, but genuine ones—end up making or breaking your next move.
•The skill of listening, and why it matters more than being the smartest person in the room.
This isn’t theory. It’s a conversation packed with examples you can relate to if you’ve ever thought about pivoting, felt stuck in a role you’ve outgrown, or struggled with the noise of self-doubt.

Book - Essential Skills for Physiotherapists: A Personal and Professional Development Framework
🎤 Art of Coaching Live Events
Let’s be honest—most workshops leave you with a notebook full of tips and no real plan for change. Ours are built different.
At Art of Coaching, you won’t just sit and take notes. You’ll engage in real scenarios—role-plays, peer feedback, video breakdowns, and live evaluations—designed to help you sharpen your communication, think on your feet, and handle tough conversations with more clarity and control.
Whether you’re dealing with a passive-aggressive coworker, trying to be more assertive without burning bridges, stuck in tension at home, or just tired of second-guessing yourself socially or professionally—we can help.
This is potent personal and professional development that actually sticks. No fluff. No filler.
We offer multiple pricing tiers and discounts—reach out at [email protected] and we’ll help make it work for you.
Upcoming Workshops:
📍 Phoenix, AZ – Oct 11‑12 (Speaker School™)
📍 Murfreesboro, TN – Oct 25‑26 (The Apprenticeship™)
📍 Charlestown, MA – Nov 15‑16 (The Apprenticeship™)

Real Coaching for Real Life
Let’s be honest—everyone says they want growth, but putting in the work? That’s where most people just stick to what’s comfortable..
That’s why we created a mentoring service built for the real world. Whether you’re stuck on a professional decision, starting a business, writing a book, dealing with pressure at home, or just trying to get out of your own way—we can help.
This isn’t therapy. And it’s not a rah-rah, feel-good session either. It’s direct, tailored coaching from people who’ve been in the trenches—leaders, operators, educators, business owners. Our team of 15 comes from a wide range of backgrounds, so you’re matched with someone who understands your world and knows how to push you forward.
Everyone needs a coach.
We’re here when you’re ready.
