Petra’s experience with her Circle is what inspired her to become a Coach and “pass it on.”

And she has a clarity of vision about exactly who she wants to help with it.

Our first Coach in France!

The word I use to describe Iris is “soulful.” It’s strange word to describe someone who works in a bank as an internal auditor.

But it reflects her caring about people, how they thrive as individuals and also how they relate to each other.

Britta first experienced WOL in 2018 and the impact, she says, “has stayed with me ever since.”

As she writes in her profile:

“The WOL spirit runs through everything she does today: bringing people together, moving forward in deliberate steps until change stops being a plan and becomes reality.” 

Carolin is unique in our community of 41 Coaches.

One reason is her work combines “somatic, scientifically grounded methods with professional experience to help her clients overcome emotional blocks.”

Another, even more charming reason, is her laugh. (“Not executive quiet,” she writes.)

Robin has a wonderful combination of intelligence, creativity, and humor.

His approach with teams and leaders is not theoretical but practical and human. His company name, Handfest (or “hands on”), embodies this.

He has exactly the right temperament and attitude for a WOL Coach.

You will not find a more supportive, encouraging, generous person than Colleen Soppelsa.

Her approach is systematic and rigorous and also profoundly human.

“Because meaningful transformation is not something we ‘roll out.’

It is something we build together — visibly, continuously, and one relationship at a time.”

Katja is one of those rare people who can make you feel good and work better in just one phone call. I can see why she is an excellent Coach!

I am thrilled Katja will bring her Clifton Strengths experience to our Coach community. I can’t wait to see what she does with WOL!

David has been in different kinds of WOL Circles over the years and is convinced that WOL “has far more potential” to reach more people and make a much bigger difference in the workplace and in the world.

I’m excited about the possibility of working with him and his professional training and consulting company, HelloAgile, to take WOL to new heights together.

Chris sharp intellect is matched only by his passion for helping people grow and connect.

In his words, he “wants people to live happy lives within a strong community” and envisions WOL being part of making that happen.

He will be a fantastic WOL Coach!

For Karie, making a difference isn’t about big programs and big ambitions. It’s personal and intimate. It’s about helping people one at a time to feel better, about themselves and the world around them.

As a WOL Coach, Karie is working with a team at Iowa State University to offer the WOL Resilience method, helping communities across Iowa experience personal growth and a feeling of connection.

Barb is one of those rare human beings who makes you feel seen, heard, and cared for in all of her interactions. It’s extraordinary.

Every time I talk with Anja I leave with new ideas, new insights, and a smile. She challenges me and inspires me and always does so in a way that feels warm and inviting.

She sees that Working Out Loud isn’t so much about any one method as it is about creating a certain kind of space for people to grow and connect.

In every interaction—every call, email, in-person meeting—Bec exudes positivity and optimism. She’s one of those rare people who naturally and effortlessly lifts up other people. When you work with her you can’t help but feel better about the possibilities, and about yourself.
