A lot of times there are people out there that if you're a really committed individual, you're a passionate individual, and you're somebody that has spent a lot of time and you have a lot of focus and faith and all that poured into your craft, there are a lot of people that will try to take advantage of that by the use of one really powerful tool, and that tool is guilt. I offer you my own experiences in dealing with this on today's episode.

E55 | Duncan French: Fadbusting Training for Combat Sports
Monday Jan 06, 2020
Monday Jan 06, 2020
The first workshops to dive more deeply into the technical aspects of communication in coaching are now live!
If you are someone who values deep learning, the acquisition and evaluation of new skills you will actually use, as well as finding out what makes those around you tick, then we invite you to join us for our highly interactive Apprenticeship™ 2-day live event!
The Art of Coaching Apprenticeship™ is research backed, and is the first event of its kind to truly bridge the gap between skilled interpersonal communication and leadership development across domains.
Collectively, our programs have welcomed leaders of all ages from over 30 professions and 22 countries including Australia, Mexico, Canada, Ireland, Japan, Brazil, Africa, China, India, Norway and Poland.
Simply put, if you work with people in any capacity, The Apprenticeship™ is for you!
Whether your goal is to become more effective at building buy-in with those you lead, improving your ability to adapt on the fly, making critical decisions under uncertainty, or simply improving your own self-awareness as a leader, these two days will help you extract strategies that you can actually put to use.
The vast majority of our attendees seek us out specifically because they have had enough of the traditional “death-by-PowerPoint” seminars that are rife with vague self-help sound bites, trust falls, overcrowded conference rooms, shouting gurus, and topics that ignore the chaotic realities of true leadership such as:
Topics Include:
- Navigating Power Dynamics & Politics
- Building Buy-In Across Varying Generations
- The Role of Perception in Leadership
- The Skilled and Ethical Use of Influence in Leadership
- 7 Critical Elements of Interpersonal Communication
- Strategies for Making Better Decisions While Under Duress
- The Truth Regarding Self-Awareness and Reflection
- Conflict Resolution in the New Age
- Creating Assessments and Evaluations For Yourself and Your Team
This is done through a strategic mixture of case study reviews, role playing break-outs, self and peer evaluations, film break-downs, group discussions and more.
The truth is that every leader needs a safe place to rehearse and refine their strategies for some of life’s biggest moments-The Apprenticeship™ is that place.
We look forward to seeing you! I would also like to remind everyone that our very next The Apprenticeship™ is on Saturday, January 25th at The Rack Athletic Performance Center in Atlanta, GA!

John Welbourn is someone that simplifies, gets to the point, and like myself, has almost no tolerance for B.S. This is a conversation I really enjoyed having with John and I think you will enjoy our conversation as well.
John Welbourn is a former 9-year NFL starter and CEO of Power Athlete. He also created the online training phenomena, Johnnie WOD. John was drafted with the 97th pick in 1999 NFL Draft and went on to be a starter for the Philadelphia Eagles from 1999-2003, appearing in 3 NFC Championship games, and a starter for the Kansas City Chiefs from 2004-2007. In 2008, he played with the New England Patriots until an injury ended his season early with him retiring in 2009. Over the course of his career, John started over 100 games with 10 play-off appearances. He was a four year lettermen while playing football at the University of California at Berkeley. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in Rhetoric. John has worked with the MLB, NFL, NHL, Olympic athletes and Military. He travels the world lecturing on performance and nutrition for Power Athlete.
Topics discussed with John today:
- John's journey at an early age and how public shaming challenged him to feverishly pursue becoming a college football player
- John covers what it was like training as an NFL lineman in and out of season throughout our conversation
- The pivotal conversation that led John to have one singular goal in pursuing his education
- The circumstances that led John to discern between good and bad information through training and education
- How John helps his clients understand "attacking" the weights within explosive movements and compensatory acceleration
- How the weight room helped John chisel away and remove all of the rubble throughout his career
- The problems that face strength coaches today and why they're not in control of their own destiny

E53 | Eric Cressey: Fatherhood and Forward Thinking
Monday Dec 30, 2019
Monday Dec 30, 2019
My self-paced online course, Valued, is re-opening for good on January 22nd – and you can get $100 off if you join within the first five days!
Valued is a career blueprint for coaches who want to land the job they’ve always wanted, make more money to provide their families with stability, and stand out in their organizations for all the right reasons.
This is the only course of its kind in the performance realm, and it covers everything from financial management, contract negotiations, resume writing, interviewing tips and tricks as well as how to manage burnout and information overload. It is for coaches of every level and every age.
To see a sneak peek from the course, just click here.
This information is kept free by our partnership with Momentous. To learn more about Momentous and what they do to help our community go to livemomentous.com/brett. As part of the Art of Coaching audience, you can receive $20 off your 1st order of Momentous by using code BRETT20 at checkout. (Minimum purchase amount of $50).
On today's show guys, we have Eric Cressey. Eric Cressey is the president and co-founder of Cressey Sports Performance and has facilities in Hudson, Massachusetts and Jupiter, Florida. Eric has been a legend in the performance game for a very long time. He's put out a tremendous amount of content.
He works with a number of organizations, and he has worked with well over a hundred major league baseball players throughout his career. Now, it's also important to note that it's not just the major league level, right? Eric cut his teeth at every level and that's what makes him special. There was no early specialization within his development as a coach.
He's always looked at a full spectrum view and has one of the most unique hybrid takes on both strength and conditioning and just anatomy and physiology and an understanding of biomechanics and force transfer than almost anybody else in the field. Most importantly, the main reason I wanted to get Eric on this show is because of the tremendous amount of balance and scale he shown, not only as a father, as a strength coach, but as a business owner.
So if you're somebody that's listening to this that isn't in the performance community, you're still gonna love this. We talk about a lot of different things. He actually has a background in accounting, which is something I learned through our conversation. So even those of you who are finance nerds, I think are going to find this very interesting.
I'm experimenting with a new way of kind of getting these bio's out of the way early so you guys can enjoy the episode. Let me know what you think. You are going to enjoy this and if you can make sure to turn up the volume. Eric was sick during this episode and he was still kind enough to come on and give you some phenomenal, phenomenal content. Lastly, make sure that you guys download the Art of Coaching podcast reflection sheets. These are sheets that you can download that help you make the most of the tactics delivered in the episode. They're completely free to you. Just go to artofcoaching.com and you'll be able to find them in the podcast section.

I want to ask you a question real quick... how many people do you know could be diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor? Yet they go on to become a national level weightlifter, they're nominated for an Emmy, they've written their own book, they are a marketing director at their own business, and on top of all that they are a mother. Well that is exactly what today's guest, Andy Ptacek, has accomplished. Today is unlike any interview I've had in the past and that is no knock on any of our previous guests. This is an episode that is so special for so many different reasons. If there is any episode where it really talks about how the weight room transcends into the boardroom, life, and how strain can really amplify our ability as people and professionals in a myriad of different ways, this is it. If you have any questions after this episode, reach out to Andy as she is a tremendous resource. Enjoy!
Topics Andy and I discuss today:
- Andy's introduction
- The earth-shattering news of receiving word that you have an inoperable brain tumor and how the fear of not being able to raise your own children kicks in
- The battles along the way after having a brain tumor surgically removed and learning how to overcome this adversity
- How Andy processed that her life was on a short clock and how her reality became a gift
- The challenges of continuing to train in weightlifting with a PICC line IV
- How Andy got to the good place she is in now by using perspective and being so aware of the journey she was on

Today's episode is another quick solo episode where I take a look at why I started this podcast and why my goal was to separate from the thousands of other podcasts out there. For a while, I avoided starting a podcast simply because there are so many podcasts already in existence and everyone has a story. I think what it becomes less and less about is giving you the right information and more about seeking huge names in an attempt to simply grow their audience. I do this podcast to give you, the listener, a voice and that was the whole point of starting The Art of Coaching podcast. I am not talking about any particular industry. I am speaking to every industry and hoping the content being delivered becomes more authentic and less redundant. I appreciate everyone listening and I hope you enjoy today's episode on this topic.

David Joyce is a great friend of mine and someone that I have always looked up to. David has a mind that is absolutely unparalleled and he has an ability to provide some of the most thoughtful feedback of any human I have ever come across. This will be very apparent after listening to my interview with David.
Since recording this episode, David has since moved on from his position with the GWS Giants. David has always had a long-term goal of more flexibility to consult, work with, and learn from other organizations as he is now doing.
Topics discussed with David today:
- The complications David is facing relating to communication
- Can communication and persuasion be taken for granted
- What David did to pinpoint his inadequacies as a communicator
- What in particular is driving David's curiosity
- The many ways creativity is intertwined with the leadership process
- Reasons why it is important to use skilled interpersonal communication as a strategy
- David shares his thoughts on when to know it is the right time to walk away from something and the negative implications of not doing so
- David's key challenge to listeners of The Art of Coaching Podcast
