The Commuter Coach

Welcome to The Commuter Coach! I’m Jen Lara—the Coaching Professor—and I built this show around a simple, powerful premise: you’re already commuting.

Yes, you might actually be commuting in a vehicle, train, or subway, but you’re also commuting in a much bigger way. You are constantly moving from one way of thinking to another. From one new idea to the next. From one version of yourself to the version you are becoming.

This podcast is designed to harness that momentum and turn your everyday commute into space for personal and professional growth.

The Commuter Coach is an active, self-paced coaching experience delivered straight to your speakers or earbuds.

Here is what you can expect in each episode:

• One Focused Topic: Every episode centers on a single real-world challenge or transition—whether that’s chasing a bold new idea, navigating a boss who’s driving you crazy, managing burnout, or pondering your next big life move.

• 10 to 15 Coaching Questions: I will ask you a series of open-ended, powerful coaching questions designed to help you reflect, gain clarity, and unlock your own answers.

• Your Pace, Your Terms: When a question lands, pause the episode. Sit with it. Ponder it. Journal about it. Talk it through out loud. Take all the time you need. When you’re ready, hit play and come back for the next question.

Whether you tune in for 5 minutes between errands or listen through a long commute, The Commuter Coach offers:

• Clarity: Unpack complex choices without feeling overwhelmed.
• Actionable Insights: Discover answers rooted in your own values and wisdom.
• A Dedicated Reflection Space: Turn your commute into the most productive part of your day.
