The Catholic Coaching Podcast

Jeanne Mancini, President Emeritus of March for Life, joins Matt and Erin to share how Catholic Mindset Coaching has reignited her mission and redefined what it means to be pro-life in a post-Roe world. From testifying before Congress to leading one of the most recognized pro-life organizations, Jeanne reveals why she turned down prestigious roles to pursue something deeper: helping others flourish from the inside out.

In this powerful conversation, you’ll hear:

• Why Jeanne chose Catholic Mindset Coaching over high-profile opportunities
• How 60% of post-abortive women say mindset support would have helped them choose life
• The massive potential of coaching inside pregnancy centers, pro-life leadership, and Catholic apostolates
• The internal transformation that leadership demands—and how coaching fosters it
• Jeanne’s raw, honest take on identity, burnout, and trusting God in the unknown

If you’re in Catholic ministry, leadership, or the pro-life movement, this episode will give you vision and tools to lead more effectively and live more abundantly.

Most coaches don’t fail because they don’t care. They fail because they don’t know who they’re coaching.

If you're mentoring, forming, or coaching someone without first understanding their temperament, especially if they’re sanguine, you’re unintentionally creating friction, not transformation. In this episode, Matt and Erin break down the five biggest mistakes coaches make with sanguine clients, and what to do instead.

You’ll learn:

• Why rigid structure shuts sanguines down
• How to guide without overwhelming or talking over them
• Simple techniques to build trust, deepen reflection, and drive follow-through
• The real reason small wins matter more than deep insights for this temperament

This isn’t about tailoring to comfort. It’s about forming people effectively by meeting them where they are, and calling them higher.
