We are honored and thrilled this week to share our conversation with Boggs’ graduate school buddy, Scott Fitzgerald, who recently started Purscial, a coach and support system for coaches, executives, and administrators who serve others in environments where performance matters. It’s like a caddy for coaches - someone in their corner to lighten the load and help them perform at their best.We dig into a multitude of topics that apply to all people working in sports, and frankly, all humans, and how we face adversity, discover more about ourselves, and how we can find joy in the work that we do and the people we can become.We’ll ask how he got the idea to start his business (3:19), how the conversations with coaches get started (8:32), what are the main things he has his clients focus on (11:03), the idea of joy and can coaches truly find it (15:21), burnout with coaches in general (18:31), how long does the process take for change to take place (21:53), strategies for results-oriented coaches (24:00), how many of his clients are trapped in fear (26:43), how passion influences decisions and self-exploration and how to harness it (28:36).After an ad break from our loyal sponsors Lloyd Christmas IOU’s and The Dead Media Society (33:45), we continue our conversation and ask Fitzy about the glamorization - or lack thereof - of being a coach (36:18), people taking advantage of our passion (39:32), who checks on the wellness of our coaches (42:32), how cultivating coaches saves departments and organizations money (45:15), being honest is the only way to make progress and how receptive coaches are to it (53:35), the fear of perfection and how it hinders to be your best (58:06), how he wants coaches to feel after meeting with him (1:00:27), and two things that help relationships (1:04:44).You can find Scott at https://purscial.net/ and can email him at [email protected] also wanted to list the books that Fitzy mentions on the podcast. The Creative Act: A Way of Being by Rick RubinTao Te Ching: A New English Version by Lao TzuThe Inward Trilogy by yung puebloThe Tough Stuff: Seven Hard Truths About Being a Head Coach by Cody RoyleThis episode was produced and written by Brandon Barca and Andy Boggs.Find us on all of the socials at NLCPod.YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NLCPodX: https://x.com/nlcpodLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/nlcpodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nlcpodTikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@nlcpod
