“As my vision quest guide always said, “don’t press the panic button too early”” – Penelope Mavor

This episode of the Coaching Outdoors Podcast brings a number of our past guests back to answer 4 of the top questions we are asked the most by our followers.

Our guests are international, joining us from the Netherlands, Sweden, Spain and the US, as well as from across the UK. Their backgrounds are equally as wide ranging, from survival experts and mountaineers, to seal rescue specialists, sustainability experts and equine coaches.

They share their insights and experience in answering these top 4 questions – how do they take notes when coaching outdoors, how do they deal with inclement weather, what challenges or unplanned events have they encountered and their 2 top tips for successful outdoor coaching sessions?

Their different coaching styles and approaches mean we get a really great range of answers to these questions. To take notes or not to take notes? That really is a question! Planning is most definitely key with outdoors coaching, as is the contents of your backpack (**other brands of poncho are available**) and if you do plan properly the weather is unlikely to be an issue. There are always opportunities for unplanned events and challenges, however, often in the form of animals, and these can be great opportunities to integrate.

The key is… “Be open minded and curious, curious for what’s to come” – Cat Boersma
