In this episode, Kristan Bishop and I wander into the heart of coaching magic. We play with big ideas and tiny moments — from what “namaste” really invites us into, to how a simple shift in perspective can change the whole room.

We unpack David Rock's SCARF model in that very layered way coaches do, tracing how our brains cling to certainty and how we can lovingly loosen that grip. And yes… we even talk about silence. The powerful kind. The musical kind. The kind that opens up a client’s inner world when we stop filling the air and let the truth land.

Fairness shows up. Reflection shows up. Music shows up... because of course it does! It's Kristan Bishop! Aaaaaand we explore how the rise and fall of musical dynamics can translate into the way we hold space as coaches.

And then, because the universe has a sense of humor, we end up right where we needed to: the Orca card deck… and the mantra that seems to whisper through the whole conversation: Let go. And let love.

Meet Kristan!

Throughout my career, I’ve built, led, and supported entrepreneurial companies that were ready to grow, and I’ve learned what it takes to create clarity, accountability, and real traction. My greatest strength is connection: building relationships based on trust, transparency, and results.

I take the time to listen, learn, and understand what makes each business and its people unique. With a broad range of business experience and a passion for helping leaders simplify the complex, I use the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) to help leadership teams strengthen the Six Key Components of their business so they can run a better business and live a better life.

In this episode of Coaching Magic, J!ll Young and Elizabeth Davis walk right into the shift many coaches know well: the move from being the one who drives, directs, and leads to becoming the one who listens, holds, and invites. Elizabeth shares her evolution from CEO to Coach, and how that transition required both humility and a deep reorientation toward connection. Instead of leading the room, she learned to facilitate it. Instead of proving, she learned to pause. Instead of controlling outcomes, she began cultivating presence.

Their conversation explores how gentleness is a form of strength, how spaciousness itself can be a strategy, and how the most profound coaching happens when we allow silence to do its work. Elizabeth weaves in her metaphor of leadership as a jigsaw puzzle, not something we assemble for others, but something we help them learn to see and trust in themselves.

This episode becomes a reflection on what it means to stay when everything inside you wants to rush ahead. To breathe instead of force. To notice the saboteur not as an enemy, but as a guiding light of potential. It’s a conversation about finding peace inside the process (yours and your client’s) and discovering the magic that connection makes possible.

What happens when the life you built starts asking you to become more?

In this raw and soul-stretching episode, Jill Young sits down with Kelly Clements to explore what it means to coach, much less live, through seasons of personal upheaval and deep transformation. Together, they dive into the balance of masculine and feminine energy, the truth that emerges from crisis, and how our most challenging moments can become powerful turning points in our coaching and relationships.

Kelly opens up about her own journey from contentment to convergence - where purpose, truth, and love finally align. This conversation is a beautiful reminder that growth isn’t about perfect goal setting or manicured research… it’s about staying grounded, open, and willing to walk through the messy middle with heart.

✨Meet Kelly!

Since 2004, I’ve helped entrepreneurial couples grow together—not apart—by showing them how to align their ambitions with intimacy, communication, and emotional connection.
My journey into this work began as an advisor with Dan Sullivan and Strategic Coach, then as a certified Dream Manager facilitator, and next as a Lifebook leader. Over time, I saw a pattern: the more successful a client became in business, the more tension quietly brewed at home. They were winning in one area—but silently losing in another.
That realization sparked my mission: to support both the entrepreneur and their spouse in building a partnership that thrives alongside their business. Through my proprietary frameworks—including the Alpha, Beta, Omega Model™ and the Six Presence Principles™—I help couples scale sustainably and stay connected.
Clients come to me when they feel like they're nearing a decision point: it's either the business, or the marriage. I help design the harmony for both to equally thrive. You can expect to find clarity, confidence, and connection again—not just in you relationship, but in your overall life vision.
If you’re an ambitious entrepreneur tired of feeling like roommates let’s talk. Or if you're married to an ambitions entrepreneur tired of feeling like an employee, I'd love to connect with you as well.
