Through candid conversations and personal examples, Paula and the hosts explore the transformation that comes with understanding and improving relational dynamics in both professional and personal contexts. About Paula Freeman: “I am a Professional Certified Coach, who is passionate about working with others in creating a life to love. I especially love Relational Intelligence. My story of leadership began 17 years ago when I felt powerless over the circumstances in my life, while on the corp rat wheel. I discovered coaching and made a pivot into a world and a life to love. I have been coaching for 15 years. Prior to coaching I was working in the corporate world managing professional liability claims in the insurance world. I am married and have a son in college. Family is one of my highest values. It is what led me to coaching. Coaching has changed my life and my world. Now I have a passion for helping people unlock their potential, navigate challenges, and design the life they truly want. Over the years, I’ve worked with individuals from all walks of life, guiding them to discover their strengths, set meaningful goals, and take bold steps toward their dreams. I especially enjoy Relational Intelligence. When I’m not coaching, I love to go sailing in the Salish Sea with my husband and dog, Chloe. Recently I’ve gotten into pickleball and find that it unleashes my competitive side. My philosophy? Life’s too short to settle, and there’s always room to grow. I’m excited to share my journey, insights, and looking forward to where our conversation takes us.” Contact Paula: Website: www.paulalifecoach.com Instagram: @pfreeman.p Facebook: paulashepperdfreeman Chapters: 00:00 Introduction to the Leadership Podcast 00:52 Meet Paula Freeman: A Journey from Corporate to Coaching 02:41 Understanding Relational Intelligence 04:04 The Power of Coaching: Paula's Personal Transformation 07:41 From Therapy to Coaching: Paula's Path 15:31 The Role of Emotions in Relational Intelligence 22:31 Bill's Personal Insights on Relationships 25:53 Transforming Family Dynamics 27:38 Taking Risks in Career 28:43 Embracing Personal Power 30:37 Relational Intelligence and Coaching 36:25 Navigating Marital Challenges 45:26 Concluding Insights on Leadership Links and References: • Internal Family Systems - https://ifs-institute.com/ • Bill Tierney Coaching - https://www.billtierneycoaching.com/ • Listening is the Key', Dr. Kettelhut’s website - https://www.listeningisthekey.com/ • Marty’s new book, ‘Leadership as Relation’ - https://amzn.to/3KKkCZO • Marty’s earlier book, ‘Listen… Till You Disappear’ - https://amzn.to/3XmoiZd • Parts Work Practice - Free IFS Practice Group Sessions - www.partsworkpractice.com • Podcast Feedback Form: https://forms.gle/RRXFKZ9z6Y43S5WFA • Do you use IFS in a leadership position?
