#17 The 'White Paper' Episode - Yannick Jacob, Nigel Pedlingham & Marcel Braun

In this episode we’re talking to Marcel Braun and Nigel Pedlingham about coaching & psychedelics. Our host Yannick, Marcel and Nigel have been writing the academic white paper on Coaching and Psychedelics and so Julia offered to interview us so that we may lay out our argument in an arguably somewhat more engaging way and offer a behind-the-scenes look into 4 years of developing this important piece of work.

MARCEL BRAUN has a B.Sc. degree in Psychology and is currently graduating in his master studies at University of Trier. His study-related interests focus on deep psychological / existential learning states and their context-relatedness, as well as their integration into self and society. For several years now, he has been studying psychedelics as one important tool to access such deep learning states. Hereby he establishes self-experiential rooms of deep psychological learning, using also non-psychedelic methods (meditation, breathwork, inquiry, circling) as well as counselling preparation and integration of psychedelic experiences.

YANNICK JACOB is a Coach, Trainer & Supervisor with Masters degrees in Existential Coaching and Applied Positive Psychology. He teaches coaching at Cambridge University and coaching supervision at the International Centre for Coaching Supervision, and he’s the Course Director of the School of Positive Transformation’s Accredited Certificate in Integrative Coaching, for which he gathered many of the world’s most influential coaches and earliest pioneers. Formerly Programme Leader of the MSc Coaching Psychology at the University of East London, Yannick now presents at conferences internationally and his book, An Introduction to Existential Coaching, was published by Routledge. Committed to helping other coaches be the best coaches they can be, Yannick founded and hosts Yannick’s Coaching Lab which gives novice and seasoned coaches an opportunity to witness experienced coaches live in action, and he is the host of Animas Centre for Coaching's popular podcast Coaching Uncaged, as well as his own podcasts Talking about Coaching and Talking about Coaching and Psychedelics.
