On this podcast, we don’t shy away from controversial topics and we love interviewing people from diverse backgrounds and perspectives. In this episode, University of Texas strength & conditioning coach Clint Martin shares how he battles the perpetuation of stereotypes and how non-minority populations can better understand the role that race plays in the modern workplace.
We also discuss:
-
How to walk the line between allowing individual expression while holding standards
-
If coaches should alter their communication style based on an athlete’s background
-
What coaches should be doing to provide uncommon value during & after COVID
-
Mistakes to avoid when trying to gain an edge in your career
-
What you can learn from non-traditional sources of education
Clint also does a great job thinking on his feet for improv games, Devil’s Advocate, and providing thoughtful answers for who his favorite villains are (that’s right- he has more than one!). He has a ton of gold nuggets to share and there’s no doubt you will learn a lot in this episode!

Throughout this episode, we talk a lot about building buy-in. If you read Conscious Coaching and want to dive deeper into the principles of building buy-in, we have an online course called Bought-In which does just that.
This course is NOT just for strength coaches. Whether you’re an executive, manager, researcher, student, or parent, the principles of communication are the same! If you want to communicate more clearly, improve your relationships, and be a more effective leader, check out Bought-In!

Do you move or do you maneuver? Before you answer, consider the following: anyone can move; maneuvering involves intent and iteration. Now ask yourself a slightly different question. Do you talk or do you communicate? Same rules apply. Communication, like maneuvering, requires strategy and feedback. On today’s show we are joined by someone seeking to help an elite organization better maneuver AND communicate: Ryan Donahue of the San Francisco 49ers. We also talk about:
- Evaluating communication in a multi-tiered organization. Is it even possible?
- Delivering negative news positively
- Polos and logos: removing the veil of credibility
- Identifying and correcting asymmetries in your continuing education
Ryan is in his sixth year with the 49ers as the team’s reconditioning coordinator. He is a licensed physical therapist, Board Certified Sports Physical Therapist (SCS) and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS). Before joining the 49ers, Donahue was a physical therapist at the Andrews Institute for Orthopedics and Sports Medicine in Gulf Breeze, FL where he provided rehabilitation for athletes in the NFL, NBA, MLB, Olympic Teams as well as US Special Forces and general population. Ryan has also spent time at Northeastern University, EXOS, UConn, UNC Chapel Hill and Mike Boyle Strength & Conditioning.

As you heard today, the only way to get real feedback on communication is to be evaluated as you are performing the skill. Our Apprenticeships™ are just that. We create a safe space where professionals from all fields can practice (and fail) while receiving a scientifically validated assessment. What are you waiting for? Join us at our next event!

It can be an incredibly insightful exercise to look for common threads between the different roles we occupy in our lives. What draws us to those vocations and occupations? Does expertise in one lead to skill in another? Listen as our guest Joel Raether uncovers many interesting parallels between his passion for the outdoors, dog training and coaching.
We also cover:
-
What “flat-landers” get wrong about training at altitude
-
High performance in a sedentary population?
-
Credibility and capability - do I still need to be deadlifting at 40?
-
“Stop making heroes out of haters!”
Joel is a managing partner of FAST performance in Denver, CO. He’s also the Head of Performance for Colorado Mammoth Lacrosse, the Owner of Hunt Hike Harvest Outdoors, and an Author, Consultant and International Presenter.
On today’s show, you’ll hear Joel talk about the importance of researching and tinkering in both outdoor adventuring and coaching. If you want to learn more about how these skills can help you in your domain, check out my book Conscious Coaching.

Think about the last goal you set. Does it scare you? Is there a possibility you could fail? Today’s guest Ben Newman challenges us all to stop protecting ourselves with our goals and push past self-imposed limits.
Also in this episode:
-
Connecting to your “burn”
-
The 30 day challenge - what are you ACTUALLY capable of?
-
Why we all need a coach
-
Doing “un-required” things to take us to the next level
Ben is a highly regarded performance coach, international speaker and best-selling author. His clients include Fortune 500 companies around the world, business executives, sales organizations and professional athletes in the NFL, PGA, NBA, MLB, UFC and NCAA. He also serves as a Mental Conditioning Coach for the 17-time National Champion Alabama Crimson Tide football team and has worked with players from the last 3 Super Bowl Champion teams.
If your goal is to be a better communicator, add more value to your organization, or secure a financially stable future for you and your family… Take a moment and ask yourself: what are you actually doing to make that happen?
What if we take Ben’s advice, stop protecting ourselves and instead try something new and bold?
Still unsure where to start? We’re here to help. Our online courses Bought In and Valued are a GREAT way to push yourself past where you’ve been before and work toward those difficult but achievable goals.

The brands we wear, the foods we eat, the people we associate with, the way we act in public… These are all ways we consciously (and often subconsciously) control others’ perception of us.
But we don’t have just one “authentic self” to portray. We are like actors playing many roles, in a constant state of flux depending on our context.
Awareness of this outward expression, or as we like to say, impression management, can help us understand how our public image is tied to our ability to reach desired goals.
On today’s episode we’ll discuss:
-
The reasons for our curated self-presentation
-
The 6 types we exhibit most and why they work
-
How to refine our current impression management strategies
If you made it to the end of the show you know that we have some EXCITING NEWS!
We are now offering virtual communication coaching. From free 30-minute discovery calls to custom coaching plans, we have just what you need to take your communication practices to the next level. So... if you enjoyed this episode and want to go further down the rabbit hole of impression management or want to enhance your communication skills in any way, head to artofcoaching.com/communication for more information!
