Becky and Taina unpack how well-meaning coaches can unintentionally repeat patterns of harm rooted in capitalism, patriarchy, and white supremacy — even when they genuinely care about their clients. They introduce a framework for building a liberatory coaching practice that centers identity, power, privilege, community, and care — not just goals, outcomes, or productivity. The episode also previews the interactive workshop happening February 25, where participants will begin building their own Liberatory Coaching Manifesto. This isn’t about gatekeeping, hustle, or “fixing” clients. It’s about practicing coaching in a way that expands choice, agency, and humanity — for both coaches and the people they serve. What liberatory coaching actually means How coaching can unintentionally reinforce harmful systems Why phrases like “limiting beliefs” and “we all have the same 24 hours” can cause harm The role of identity, power, and privilege in coaching spaces Why community is essential to sustainable coaching work What a Liberatory Coaching Manifesto is — and why you’ll build one How to practice coaching without gatekeeping or hustle culture Why this work can’t be done alone Build Your Liberatory Coaching Manifesto (free, live workshop) February 25 at 12pm Eastern on Zoom Replay available only to those who sign up Sign-up for free at messyliberation.com . 🎤 PROUD MEMBERS OF THE FEMINIST PODCASTERS COLLECTIVE : http://feministpodcastcollective.com/","meta_description":"Get \"Liberate Your Business\" by Becky Mollenkamp https://liberateyourbusiness.com/ This conversation is specifically for people who practice coaching or r…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":593,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/messy-liberation-feminist-conversations-about-politics-and-pop-culture-6952884/episodes/what-liberatory-coaching-actually-means-and-why-it-matters-right-now/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/messy-liberation-feminist-conversations-about-politics-and-pop-culture-6952884/what-liberatory-coaching-actually-means-and-why-it-matters-right-now.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
