My old friend Aboodi Shabi is someone I’ve known since my early days in the coaching world. Aboodi has been coaching longer than most in the UK, and he joined me to explain how his journey has evolved. We talk about his work at Henley Business School, where he now teaches part-time, and how he balances that with his own coaching practice. We also explore the influence of yoga and other embodied practices on his work. It’s a grounded, thoughtful chat with one of the most experienced voices in the field and a really useful one for all coaches.
