The James Harrisson Show Why the tough conversations we avoid are the key to our success (and how to have more of them)
Why the tough conversations we avoid are key to our success (and how to have more of them)
What you’ll learn from this interview:
- Why David left his job as a Consulting Actuary to Fortune 100 companies to start a coaching business
- How severe trauma (watching his sister die at age 7) affected him later in life and how he’s worked (and is still working) through the ramifications of this
- Why the tough conversations we avoid, are our doorways to confidence, success, and love (and how to have more of them)
My guest today is David Wood, he’s a former Consulting Actuary to Fortune 100 companies - including Sony Music, Chanel, and Exxon. David left his cushy Park Avenue job 20 years ago to build the world’s largest coaching business and today he’s serving an audience of 150,000 coaches in 12 countries around the globe.
David believes that the tough conversations we avoid, are our doorways to confidence, success, and love. He coaches high performing entrepreneurs, executives and teams - and now prison inmates - to create amazing results and deep connection, one tough conversation at a time.
I wanted to bring David on the show to find out how he made the transition from his Park avenue job to building his coaching business, how he helps his clients specifically and why he thinks tough conversations are the key to our success
