AI & The Future of Coaching
What Can Be Replaced, and What Never Will
Artificial Intelligence is changing the landscape of every creative and human profession, including coaching. In this solo episode, Phil Goddard explores what AI can already do better than most humans, and where its reach will always end. Phil also takes a more intimate look at what those two letters, AI, might also come to mean for the coaching world.
This isn’t a debate about technology; it’s an inquiry into what makes coaching truly human: presence, curiosity, and love.
Phil takes listeners on a reflective, grounded journey through the evolving world of creation and connection, inviting both coaches and clients to return to the essence of what real transformation is built upon.
In this episode Phil shares:
• What aspects of the coaching industry are most at risk from automation
• The irreplaceable qualities that keep real coaching alive
• Why curiosity is the true heartbeat of transformation
• How creativity loses soul when it becomes mechanical
• What the future of meaningful human work might look like
• If you’re a coach: this episode invites you to rediscover your depth, to shift from performance to presence, and to build your work around what no machine can replicate.
• If you’re a coaching client: it offers clarity on what genuine coaching feels like, how to recognise when a conversation is alive, real, and transformative, and not formulaic.
This is a meditation on where technology ends, and where humanity begins.

Bali Brotherhood
A one hour chat with my dear friend in Bali.
In this conversation we discuss:
* The magic of men’s circles, and what inspired Dean to start facilitating them.
* Handling things when they get tough.
* Dean’s journey into addiction and through recovery.
* The intoxicating nature of Bali and how it was to live there during the pandemic
* Bali shredding.
* Happiness, contentment, and being okay.
* The power of not giving advice.
* Dean’s ‘unconventional’ marriage, the safety of commitment, and how he stays connected with his wife.
* The power of humour in our experience of life, and why people get offended.
* Water Fasting for 40 days
* What men want and their biggest struggle in life!
Apologies for the quality and imbalance of the sound in this episode, due to my over-excitement in missing doing some pre-recording checks. I hope this will not take away any enjoyment of the conversation, which is most definitely worth your time to listen.
Here’s a little more about Dean:
Dean is a living testament to the transformative power of self-empowerment and a steadfast dedication to guiding individuals from all walks of life towards discovering inspiration from within. With over two decades of hands-on experience, Dean has established himself as a highly regarded relationship coach, author, educator, and counselor.
His professional journey encompasses a diverse range of roles, where he has provided guidance to individuals, couples, and groups, navigating the intricate dynamics of human connections. Dean's expertise goes beyond the conventional, as he seamlessly integrates his deep musical background into his practice. He has orchestrated and led numerous drumming circles, cacao ceremonies, men's circles, mixed circles, and an array of workshops designed to empower others to find and express their authentic selves.
Dean's unique approach extends beyond the realms of traditional coaching, as he serves as a facilitator, master equilibrator, and beta release practitioner. He not only imparts knowledge and skills but shares the wealth of his profound life experiences and genuine compassion. This combination, coupled with his keen insight and unwavering humanity, enables him to authentically connect with those who seek his guidance, providing assistance and relief.
In every facet of his work, Dean remains committed to fostering personal growth and transformation. His ability to listen attentively and connect with individuals on a deep level sets him apart, making him a trusted ally for those embarking on their journey towards self-discovery and fulfilment.
