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.

A Necessary Conversation About the Coaching Profession
One my lawyers advised me against… ;)
Kim makes her 3rd appearance on the podcast to discuss with Phil aspects of the coaching profession that are not necessarily serving in the most impactful way.
They shine a light on:
* The two worlds of Coaching
* The monoculture of the Coaching Pyramid
* The Bullshit of Social Media
* The impact of creating a business in survival mode
* Why it’s worth considering what you really want to create
* The importance of real-world experience
And other aspects of the coaching profession.
Here’s a little more about Kim:
Kim Kaase is a Leadership coach and strategist who can help you build a business you love - without hustle, hassle and ‘have tos’.
She believes it’s possible to achieve success without striving, feeling you have to ‘prove yourself’ - or make sacrifices.
And that trusting yourself enough to follow your own unique path - and giving yourself permission to do it your way - is the key to unlocking your ‘next level’ of success (whatever that might look like for you).
Before creating her coaching practice in 2012, Kim was a key leader at a top 10 Knoll dealer rising through the ranks of Design Director to VP of Sales and Professional Services – with no sales experience. She lives in Houston, Texas with her 18 year old son and her husband and also hold the honor of being Chief Tasting Officer for their business, Sweet Bribery.
