E142: Democratization of Coaching with Hasan Rafiq, PCC

Hello and welcome to the KnolShare with Dr. Dave podcast. I am Dave A. Cornelius, affectionately known as Dr. Dave.

In this special Humans Being Human episode of KnolShare with Dr. Dave, we explore the democratization of coaching through the lens of cultural and collective identity. Hasan Rafiq, PCC, shares how coaching can honor diverse traditions, histories, and lived experiences while expanding access across boundaries of class, culture, and geography. We examine how coaching empowers belonging, challenges displacement, and creates space for all voices to be seen, heard, and valued in the human experience, from migration to technology. This episode explores strategies to responsibly scale coaching while maintaining its human-centered essence, from workplace inclusion to community resilience. Discover how coaching can become a tool for collective upliftment and systemic change.
