What if the most important thing a supervisor creates isn't an intervention, a model or even an insight? What if it's space itself? In a thought-provoking episode of The Coaching Supervision Casebook Podcast, Jeremy Lewis talks with coaching supervisor and researcher Marian Rosefield about a supervision journey that highlights the transformative power of a safe, relational and inclusive container. Working with a globally dispersed team of ADHD coaches, Marian demonstrates that meaningful supervision begins well before the first challenge is explored. It begins with co-creating a space where people can genuinely show up as themselves.

Few challenge the very way we make sense of ourselves. In this compelling episode of The Coaching Supervision Casebook Podcast, Jeremy Lewis sits down with Dr Louie Gardiner and Sam Pringle to explore a supervision approach that feels less like a model and more like an art form. Presence In Action, and its distinctive P6 constellation, invites us beyond analysis and into something far more embodied: a live encounter with our own sensemaking process.

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! Coaching supervision is at its most transformative when supervisor and supervisee co-create a space that is both safe and relational. In the latest edition of The Coaching Supervision Casebook Podcast, contributing authors Jeremy Lewis and Jan Brause discuss this theme as central to enabling deep developmental work. Jan describes supervision as a collaborative process where trust is built through openness, vulnerability and shared exploration. Rather than a supervisor ‘creating’ safety for a supervisee, she argues that psychological safety is something that emerges between two people. Through authentic dialogue, curiosity and mutual humanity, supervisor and supervisee create a space where difficult experiences can be explored without judgement. In Jan’s case study – one of 18 in the book - a coach sought supervision after recognising recurring challenges when working with authority figures. Through reflective inquiry and exploring her Childhood Story, she uncovered a narrative rooted in growing up with an authoritarian father. As a child, staying quiet and invisible had been a strategy for safety. As an adult coach, however, this same pattern resurfaced in the presence of powerful male clients, undermining her confidence and effectiveness. The supervision process was not about revisiting the past as therapy. Instead, it focused the supervisor and supervisee jointly Noticing the story she had been carrying and Exploring how it was influencing her practice in the present. By her supervisor holding space for a new understanding to emerge, she began to separate the historical event from the meaning she had attached to it. A key insight from Jan is that while the original story cannot be changed, the narrative can. The supervisee moved from an unconscious belief that her voice was safest when silent to a more resourceful narrative that her perspective mattered and could be expressed with confidence. This shift was only possible because supervision provided a trusting environment where vulnerability was welcomed and reflection was shared. In doing so, supervision became more than professional support. It became a safe, relational space where self-doubt could be reframed, confidence rebuilt and a coach empowered to serve clients with greater presence and authenticity.

Most coaches and supervisors are trained to work in the present moment, with a future intention in mind. All well and good, but what if one of the most important things happening in the room is not immediately visible? What if the past is already there, silently shaping the conversation? In a fascinating episode of The Coaching Supervision Casebook Podcast, Jeremy Lewis speaks with Fiona Adamson about a supervision case that explores a deceptively simple idea: the past is always alive in the present. This podcast episode offers a rich exploration of supervision, relational awareness and the profound possibility that understanding the past can transform what becomes possible in both the present and the future.

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! For coach educators, one of the biggest challenges is helping new coaches move beyond the question: ‘Am I doing it right?’ Effective supervision can provide the confidence, reflection and psychological safety that trainees need to develop their practice. In this episode, Charlotte Wilding shares her experience supervising coaches on an ILM Level 7 programme and demonstrates how the NEEDS framework supports her. The framework is particularly effective for exploring common concerns among new coaches, such as fear of causing harm, managing emotional conversations, or handling challenging clients. Through structured reflection, trainees often discover that they already possess valuable skills from previous professional experiences and do not need to become a completely different person to coach effectively.

Am I doing this right? Am I asking the right questions? Am I living up to what I was taught? Am I good enough? In a fascinating conversation on The Coaching Supervision Casebook Podcast, coaching supervisor Steve Benson challenges the assumption that doubt is always something to eliminate. Instead, he invites us to consider a different possibility: what if some doubts are actually useful?

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! In conversations about coaching supervision, ethics is often treated as a corrective mechanism: something we attend to when a boundary has been crossed, a dilemma emerges, or a complaint arises. Interviewed by Jeremy Lewis for The Coaching Supervision Casebook Podcast, Beth Clare McManus offers a different perspective. Her reflections on values incongruence suggest that ethical practice begins much earlier, with the capacity to notice.

Many coaches know supervision matters—but far fewer truly understand what it looks like in practice. That's why I wrote and edited The Coaching Supervision Casebook, published by Routledge. The book's mission is simple: to make coaching supervision practical, accessible, and far less intimidating, so more coaches can confidently engage with it. To accompany the book’s publication, I'm launching The Coaching Supervision Casebook Podcast. In each episode, I'll be joined by one of the contributing authors to explore a real case study and bring the NEEDS Framework to life. Follow now and join the conversation.
