Janine Esbrand is a Career Change coach and Ex-City Lawyer who moved into coaching 4 years ago and has built up a successful flagship online career change academy.

She lives in the same - very white middle-class Surrey - town as me. In this episode we discuss diversity and race within the coaching industry and its inevitable white privilege.

We cover:

• How race plays a vital role in our beliefs
• How white coaches need to have done anti-racist work to ensure non-white clients feel supported
• Whether we can claim we provide safe spaces for discussion around race - that don't cause more trauma - if we haven't done any race or diversity work (and not as a tick box exercise)
• How lack of diversity leads to further lack of diversity
• How our social circle might impact how diverse our business is
• How this is a movement, and anti-racism work needs to be sustainable and long term
• Janine's guidance for new coaches - beautifully simple and easy to implement
