Coach to Coach: A conversation with Skye Best

What changes when we stop trying to sound like coaches—and learn to listen like one?

In our latest ICF Washington State Coach-to-Coach Member Spotlight, Skye Best, founder of Luminary Shift and lead ambassador for Coach Community Connection, shares lessons from more than two decades of helping entrepreneurs build their businesses and see new possibilities.

In this conversation, Skye talks about:

✨ How coaching found her—and helped her recognize the work she had been doing all along

✨ Why coaches should stop following cookie-cutter formulas and build practices around their own strengths

✨ How curiosity helps experienced coaches continue growing

✨ Why mentoring one person can be a meaningful way to give back

✨ Why community is something we create, not simply something we receive

✨ What will remain deeply human as AI becomes more present in our work

“Coaching is powerful because it gives people the space to hear themselves differently.”

If you care about staying curious, building an authentic practice, creating meaningful community, and protecting the human heart of coaching, this conversation is worth your time.
