In this episode of the Coaching Studio, host Lyssa deHart welcomes Sheila Carmichael, an accomplished MCC executive coach, leadership strategist, and author. With a journey that began in corporate HR, Sheila shares her evolution into an MCC coach, driven by a passion for authentic leadership and empowering decision-makers to lead with courage and presence. She describes her unique coaching approach, which is centered on connecting the dots for clients, fostering self-awareness, and supporting leaders in navigating complex, high-stakes situations.

Throughout the conversation, Sheila emphasizes the importance of creating psychological safety, especially in executive settings where leaders may not always receive candid feedback. She uses relatable metaphors, like playing tennis or selecting the right pair of shoes, to illustrate how leaders can adapt their style to foster engagement and build trust. Sheila also delves into her coaching "secret sauce"—the ability to help leaders gain clarity on their own patterns and decisions, which strengthens their impact and helps align organizational goals with personal values.

In a deeply insightful exchange, Lyssa and Sheila explore themes of courage, continuous growth, and the significance of purpose. They discuss how presence in authentic leadership is shaped not only by external behaviors but by internal beliefs, convictions, and the courage to be vulnerable. Sheila’s philosophy underscores that coaching is about drawing out answers within clients, allowing them to lead from a place of authenticity. This episode is packed with powerful insights for leaders, coaches, and anyone interested in fostering growth and innovation within themselves and their organizations.

Tune in for an inspiring discussion on authentic leadership, presence, and the art of courageous coaching.
