We can only be our very best swim coach by asking hard questions and listening to the experience and wisdom of coaches who have come before us. That's the very foundation of the Swim Like A. Fish Swim Coach Mentorship. We know what it's like to keep hitting an obstacle or a problem as a coach that seems unsolvable. What would happen if you could talk to someone who has not only been there before but who also found immense success in overcoming the very same challenges?

WHAT IS A JUST CULTURE? One of the many things that we teach in the HFID: Level 1 Webinar series is Just Culture in Diving. "A ‘Just’ Culture is primarily an organisational ‘thing’ to help organisational learning by ensuring that when something went wrong, a complete account of what happened could be captured and then analysed. The problem is that what is acceptable or unacceptable can really only be determined after the event, and it is normally the leadership who decide this. In the case of diver training agencies, it will be the quality control department, or in a dive centre, the manager of the facility. In both cases, these individuals are often unsighted as to the real challenges of delivering training, not understanding the gaps between what should be taught ('work as imagined') and what is actually done ('work as done') because of the commercial and resource challenges that are faced." https://buff.ly/3XOjZWE The HFID: Level 1 Webinar is a 10 week LIVE course that allows for interactive learning for all booked on. The next session starts on October 6th or October 8th depending on your location.

Learning anything comes down to two things: practice and performance.

The Daily Stoic - April 26th Things Happen In Training "When your sparring partner scratches or head-butts you, you don't then make a show of it, or protest, or view him with suspicion or as plotting against you. And yet you keep an eye on him, not as an enemy or with suspicion, but with a healthy avoidance. You should act this way with all things in life. We should give a pass to many things with our fellow trainees. For, as I've said, it's possible to avoid without suspicion or hate." ~ Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 6.20 By seing each day and each situation as a kind of training exercise, the stakes suddenly become a lot lower. The way you interpret your own mistakes and the mistakes of others is suddenly a lot more generous. It's certainly a more resilient attitude than going around acting like the stakes of every encounter put the championship on the line. When you catch an elbow or an unfair blow today, shake off the pain and remind yourself: I'm learning. My sparring partner is learning too. This is practice for both of us - that's all. I know a bit more about them, and from my reaction, they learn a little bit more about me too. #dailystoic

The big fat myth 🏃🏼♀️🏃🏼♂️🏃🏾 The more you run the better you become. 📸 🥇 with a totally different training approach to the one I believed I needed to follow. I’m on a roll. 3rd win in 2 weeks 🙌 I diligently followed a training plan for 15 years. Don’t get me wrong I did ok (got a few international vests) I was also knackered and injured a lot. It’s taken me a long time to work out what works for me. I hear that a lot. There is no right way, just the right way for you, right now. That phrase jumped out at me while listening to The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housal. “There is no right way of investing, find the right method for you & your financial goals.” Whether it’s run training, financial investing or anything else it feels the message is; find what works for you. And how do we find what works for each of us? Clarity never emerged in urgency and busyness. Taking time to witness my thoughts and feelings. That’s my tactic, what’s yours? ***** I support teams and individuals to work out what’s the right next steps for them. I can also suggest some dam good mountain running races in Snowdonia if that’s your jam ⛰️ ******
