  • Why the World Needs Neuro-Informed Coaching: Elaine Taylor-Klaus on Supporting Neurodivergent Minds
    Jul 29 2026

    Elaine Taylor-Klaus built a career around a question most workplaces still avoid: what happens when we stop designing everything around one type of brain? Taylor-Klaus, co-founder of Impact ADHD and the new NeuroInformed Institute, talks with hosts Dr. Steve Jeffs and Erwin de Grave about neurodivergence, parenting, and leadership.


    She shares her own late diagnosis story, explains why SMART goals fail a large share of people, and gives a simple workplace fix that changes how neurodivergent employees perform. A candid, practical conversation about meeting people where they are.

    Jul 15 2026

    In this conversation with Dr. Steve Jeffs and Erwin de Grave, she shares the history most coaches never hear. Two rival coaching associations merged in an Atlanta hotel room and drew straws for the name.


    She also names an uncomfortable finding. When MCC candidates kept failing assessment, the assessors looked past the coaches and found the gap sat with their mentors.

    Jul 1 2026

Colin Scotland, who heads the AI for Coaches mentorship at coaching.com, explains why the coaches getting real value from AI start somewhere unexpected: writing down who they are. He walks through context engineering, operational AI that completes tasks on its own, and why the first step toward using the technology well is knowing yourself. A grounded, human-first take on a tool most people still misunderstand.
