From Surviving to Thriving: The Science of Flourishing, Positivity & High Performance | Andy Cope

Mon, 23 Mar 2026 13:32:29 GMT

What if happiness isn’t the goal—but flourishing is?

In this powerful episode of The Coaching Clubhouse, Adrian Last is joined by keynote speaker, best-selling Author & ‘Recovering Academic’ Dr Andy Cope (aka the Dr of Happiness). Andy specialises in positive psychology & The Science of Human Flourishing to explore how we move from simply surviving… to truly thriving.

Andy shares insights from his 12 years of research into human flourishing, revealing why only a small percentage of people consistently operate at their best—and what they do differently.

Together, they explore:

The concept of “flourishing” and why it’s bigger than happiness
Why modern life may be holding us back
The truth about the “2%ers”—and how to become one
Why attitude is a conscious choice (and how to build it)
How your energy impacts others through emotional contagion
The role of coaching in unlocking potential and performance
Why culture starts with you—not the organisation
The surprising power of not taking yourself too seriously

This episode is packed with practical wisdom for coaches, leaders, and anyone looking to improve their mindset, performance, and wellbeing.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or like you’re just going through the motions—this conversation will challenge and inspire you to think differently. Because thriving isn’t about waiting for life to improve… It’s about choosing how you show up.

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 19:59:02 GMT

What did coaching teach us in 2025? That inclusion isn’t optional. That burnout isn’t weakness. That pretending is exhausting. And that alignment matters more than achievement.

In this special Coaching Clubhouse 2025 Wrapped episode, Adrian Last revisits the most powerful insights from a year of conversations about leadership, identity, performance and wellbeing.

Featuring highlights from:

• Professor Rebecca Jones on AI, inclusion and bias

• Matt Scarff on reinvention and rediscovering your mojo

• Glen McCoy on co-achievement and creative courage

• Katie Denyer on neurodiversity in leadership

• Yvette Jeal on the neuroscience of stress and performance

• Clive Leach (and Miss May 🐾) on being versus doing

• Kevin White on alignment and emotional awareness

• Angela Cox on authenticity and the “pretending pandemic”

Across every conversation, one theme emerged:

Coaching in 2025 isn’t about fixing people — it’s about helping people come home to themselves.

Thu, 08 Jan 2026 15:30:35 GMT

What happens when a high performer comes back — after parental leave, sick leave, or a career break — and quietly wonders: Can I still do it?

In this episode of The Coaching Clubhouse, Adrian Last is joined by Jessica Chivers, one of the UK’s first Chartered Coaching Psychologists, executive coach, and founder of The Talent Keeper Specialists, for a warm, honest conversation about what it really takes to return to work and thrive.

Jessica shares the behind-the-scenes reality of earning chartership while juggling major family pressures, the key insight that resilience “ebbs and flows”, and why self-compassion isn’t optional when life gets heavy. From there, the conversation moves into comeback coaching and the brilliance of how it supports people returning to work after a period of leave, including shortening the distance between a career-changing moment and being fully back in the game.

You’ll also hear Jessica’s practical guidance for line managers, a powerful case for meaningful shared parental leave, and why childcare should be treated as essential infrastructure. And Jessica closes with a brilliant coaching question that instantly shifts perspective.

If you’re returning to work, supporting someone who is, or leading a team through change — this one’s for you.

Welcome to a Coaching Clubhouse Extra Shot — a shorter, off-air moment from my conversation with Angela Cox, recorded right after we wrapped the main episode.

Angela Cox: Stop Pretending and Find the Real You

Wed, 10 Dec 2025 09:00:00 GMT

In this powerful and refreshingly honest episode, Adrian Last welcomes Angela Cox — Cambridge-qualified Master Coach, founder of Paseda360, and creator of the groundbreaking “Stop Being Stuck” method.

Angela shares her remarkable journey from corporate boardrooms to leading a movement in human-centric coaching. She opens up about the personal transformation that inspired her to leave a high-flying job, take off the mask, and build a life and business rooted in authenticity.

Together, Adrian and Angela explore what she calls the Pretending Pandemic — the masks we all wear to fit in and feel safe — and how we can start to unlearn them. They discuss why traditional coaching models like GROW have “had their day,” why true change means working with both the wiring and the plumbing of our emotional selves, and why bravery might just be the most important step of all.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, not quite yourself, or like success hasn’t made you happy — this conversation is your permission slip to take the mask off.

Listen for:

The real story behind Stop Being Stuck
What the “pretender masks” are — and how to spot your own
How self-awareness transforms performance
Why bravery, not perfection, creates change
