  Producer and Host - The Helping Conversation Podcast

  Welcome to my new podcast entitled The Helping Conversation: An Exploration and Celebration of the Practice, Art and Science of facilitating trusting, safe, inclusive and effective helping conversations with others. Defined as any conversation that “focuses on supporting a person in the moment, and/or, supporting the overall growth and development of a person, group or organization”, The Helping Conversation is at the core of that sacred partnership between two or more people when one has been asked, agrees to or is empowered to help the other. Not only the domain of traditional helping professions such as counseling or coaching, this podcast will introduce you to individuals from a variety of walks of life including business owners, leaders, teachers, clergy, advisors, entrepreneurs, parents, community leaders and others, who have successfully and effectively utilized their own unique brand of The Helping Conversation to support people and organizations in being their best.
