The Courageous Coach live 'Melissa Hague'
Host, Helena Clayton sits down with coach, supervisor and author Clare Norman to explore the transformative power of love in coaching, leadership, and organizational life. Drawing on their 15-year professional connection, they unpack how love—specifically agape, unconditional love—differs from empathy, compassion, and care, and why naming love explicitly can shift the depth and quality of coaching relationships. Claire shares real-life examples about how coaching and supervision becomes a deeply human-centred practice when viewed through the ‘lens of love.’
In this conversation with Clare Norman MCC, we gently unpick that idea. Because mastery, in coaching, isn’t a destination you arrive at - It’s a commitment you keep renewing.
Clare speaks beautifully about mastery not as perfection - but as devotion. A willingness to keep growing, refining, noticing. There’s honesty here too. The joy. The exhaustion. The humanity.
