#59 Fixing vs. Guiding: Why Coaching Isn’t What You Think.
In this episode of the GROWTHSchema podcast, we sit down with Dragan Donkov, an EMCC-accredited Senior Practitioner Coach who helps leaders and teams navigate the complex challenges of modern life. With deep expertise in both individual and team coaching, Dragan offers a grounded and thoughtful perspective on how to balance roles, meet professional demands, and lead with greater self-awareness.
We dive into the differences between coaching and therapy, unpack the importance of psychological first aid, and explore what it truly means to be human—beyond the job titles and performance metrics. Dragan shares practical insights for anyone who feels stretched thin by responsibility, and offers a compassionate roadmap for becoming a more intentional, present, and connected leader.
Whether you're leading a team, navigating parenthood, or simply trying to integrate your many roles, this episode will give you tools and reflections to grow from the inside out.
Tune in to rediscover leadership, explore mental well-being, and connect with the essence of being human.
