In this episode of The Coaching Book Club Podcast, Christy and Ken explore The Possible Self by Maja Djikic — a practical and reflective guide for coaches navigating identity, mindset, and growth. Together, they unpack the challenges of transitions, sticky emotions, and what it means to redesign not just behaviors, but the beliefs beneath them. Through storytelling, laughter, and real-life coaching reflections, they offer a candid look at how personal development shows up in coaching practice. Key themes we explore:

• The "time thief" trap — and how to reclaim attention
• Sticky emotions like fear, anger, and sadness as coaching data
• What curiosity + acceptance really mean for coaches
• Reframing "helping" from problem-solving to presence
• Practical shifts to update your coaching self-concept
