S6 Episode 36: Wilful Blindness in Coaching - What We Notice, Name, and Choose to Ignore with Jaye Lee

Claire Pedrick first began talking with Jaye Lee after she read this post on Linked In and made her realise that she too had seen something and not called it out. Jaye did.

So this episode explores the complexity of ethics, silence, authenticity, and credentialing within the coaching profession. Claire talks with Jaye Lee, a Singapore-based coach and co-founder of Oneness Consultancy, about the moral dilemmas coaches face, particularly around calling out misconduct and the power dynamics of giants in the industry.

They discuss how silence can silently enable harmful behaviours, the importance of self-awareness and consistency, and how badges and credentials impact perceptions of authority. Jaye talks about the importance of being human and genuine over striving for external validation. This episode invites coaches and listeners to reflect on our values, actions, and the true meaning of integrity, encouraging a courageously human approach to professional and personal life.
