Sacred Changemakers

Becoming: Poems from the Thresholds of Change

In this intimate solo episode, Jayne Warrilow opens the summer season of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast with something a little different; something slower, perhaps a little more sacred. This episode begins the season with soul.

Jayne shares the unexpected story behind her new poetry book, Becoming: Poems from the Thresholds of Change - a collection of words unearthed from old journals, written across decades of navigating change, both personally and professionally.

Through five carefully selected poems, Jayne invites us into the tender terrain of becoming. Each piece is woven with context, reflection, and resonant questions that speak to our inner thresholds, the quiet moments of grief, courage, reckoning, and remembering.

This is not a typical podcast conversation. It is a guided experience, an invitation to pause and feel. To let the words meet you where you are. If you've ever found yourself on the edge of change; uncertain, tender, but sensing something sacred, this episode is for you.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

• The personal story behind Jayne’s unexpected poetry book
• Five powerful poems drawn from the thresholds of transformation
• Reflections on identity, intuition, pain, legacy, and soul
• A deeper conversation about what it means to live and lead with resonance
• An invitation to slow down and reconnect with what’s real within you

Together, we explore what it means to lead in a world marked by crisis, complexity, and potential. We speak openly about the emotional labor of holding space, the polarities we’re asked to navigate, and how we’re each being stretched to grow, not just as coaches, but as conscious humans. You’ll hear us reflect on the shift from transactional to transformational work, the sacredness of presence, and why love, wholeness, and spirituality are no longer fringe ideas but essential to the future of coaching.

If you’ve been sensing change, if you’re holding questions about your role, your work, or what’s emerging through you now, this conversation is for you. It’s not just about coaching. It’s about being. And it’s an invitation to remember that we’re not here to help people fit more comfortably into a broken world; we’re here to help shape a new one.

Key Takeaways

• Why coaches are being called beyond tools and techniques into deeper ways of being and holding space
• How to navigate polarities like grief and possibility, uncertainty and vision, with grounded presence
• The shift from transactional coaching to resonance-based, transformational work
• Real stories of personal and professional stretching, and how to meet the unknown with self-trust
• Why love, spirituality, and wholeness are not “woo” but essential to the future of coaching
• What it means to lead ethically and soulfully in a time of breakdown, transition, and emergence

Our guest on this week’s podcast is Kyle Dietrich, the founder of Grounded Idealist and co-organizer of the Coaching Collaborative, a powerful initiative mobilizing thousands of credentialed coaches to support tens of thousands of displaced workers. Kyle is also a certified Empowerment Facilitator and Trauma-Informed Leadership Coach. With more than 25 years of experience leading large-scale peacebuilding and humanitarian assistance programs in complex contexts like Haiti, Niger, and Burundi, including his former role as Training and Learning Director in USAID’s Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance, Kyle brings a wealth of insight into the intersection of global change, trauma, and human potential.

Whether you’re a coach, a leader, or someone seeking meaning in the midst of uncertainty, this episode offers quiet wisdom and inspiration for how we hold space for both grief and growth—and step into our sacred calling for change.

Key Takeaways
