Have you ever felt stuck, burnt out, or unsure of your next move in your career?
In this episode we’re joined by Kristi Foster, Head of Programmes at Conservation Careers and an experienced careers coach. Kristi has been a guiding force for hundreds of conservationists — helping them overcome internal barriers like imposter syndrome, burnout, and decision paralysis.
Together, we explore what coaching actually is — and what it isn’t — clarifying how it differs from mentoring, consulting or therapy, and what makes it such a powerful tool for growth.
We discuss the unique challenges conservationists face today, from burnout to imposter syndrome to uncertainty, and how coaching can bring you clarity, confidence and direction.
Kristi also walks us through what happens in a typical coaching session, including some of the tools and exercises she uses to help people unlock breakthroughs.
And finally, we explore how to know if coaching is right for you — and what it takes to get the most from the process.
Whether you're a student, switcher, seasoned professional or someone in-between, this conversation will help you understand the power of coaching to support your growth and success in the sector.
It’s an open, honest, and practical conversation — and if you’d like to explore whether coaching could be right for you, there’s a link in the description to find out more.
