In this episode and in our new series we are asking our guests to explore their stories using The Hero's Journey. We are very excited to have fellow coaches and podcasters and basically coolest coaching wizards from  The Magic Academy  Rusty and Fletch (Russell Earnshaw and John Fletcher).

They join Sarah and I today to discuss their coaching journey from being rugby players, coaches and how that has shaped their coaching philosophy. It is a simple one, they want coaches to get better so that they and players can have better experiences through their sport whatever that sport may be.
Check out their website which has some fantastic resources for coaches across many sports and can also be used in the business world.

We talk about super coaches and the importance of development coaches being embedded in all sports and supported by governing bodies.
These guys believe in the importance of supporting coaches, creating communities of coaches whose purpose is to create excitement, fun, growth and ultimately create environments for players from grassroots to elite to truly flourish as people and players. 

We also explore who influenced their coaching philosophy and inspired them also how they have both got a 'obsession' of learning and continuing to grow as coaches by seeking feedback and stretching themselves in different spaces, both in the sporting and business world.
Frankly, if you want to be a coach and improve as a coach, listen to these guys, they have so much to share and they want to hear your thoughts too.
Check out their podcast  where, in their own words they..."love to hang with rockstars from the coaching world and get them sharing through some pretty cool questions"

This was such fun to be part of and interesting and inspiring...please take a listen and enjoy.
