This week, I was reminded to re-listen to a conversation we had three years ago on @themergingpathpodcast.

The world has changed a lot since then — AI slop, wars, highly publicized cases of abuse — but one thing that hasn’t changed is the need for men to have more open and meaningful conversations to learn, unlearn and prevent violence against women and girls.

I was in one of those conversations this week in one of my closest networks. I bore witness to a friend moving from a lack of awareness to awareness to positive action — all in a safe and loving environment. It is a unique joy I hope you’ll get to experience.

There are still good people out there. Don’t believe the naysayers.

Most leaders weren’t taught how to coach.

They were promoted because they were great at their job — not because anyone showed them how to develop other people.

So they default to what they know: giving advice, avoiding the hard conversation, or just hoping people figure it out.

I built the Merging Path Professional Coach Training to bridge this exact gap. ICF Level 1 aligned with a repeatable structure for coaching conversations that actually produce ownership and growth.

Next cohort: IN-PERSON, May 6-8, Mountain View, CA.

I’m capping the cohort size at 20, and I only have a few spots left.

Comment “Coach Training” or DM me for details.

One 90-minute virtual session and 2.5 days of in-person training in Mountain View, CA with me, Brooks E. Scott, your MCC Executive Coach.

Sending this out to my network before I go live with this.

Organizations expect leaders to coach.

Most never learned how.

Coaching is a skill.

And it CAN be trained.

May 6th - 8th - IRL in Mountain View, CA
Live, applied, rigorous.

Speak Boldly. Listen Powerfully. Make it Matter.

If you’re ready to become a coach - Let’s talk.

De-escalation isn’t passive.
It isn’t endless talking.
It isn’t hoping someone calms down.

De-escalation is active.
Time. Distance. Positioning. Tone.
Eye contact. Kindness. Control.

If we want fewer moments where force becomes final, we have to get louder about what good de-escalation actually looks like.
This is the work.

Force ends when the threat stops. But an officer’s responsibility doesn’t.

We talk about how force is used, but not enough about what happens after. Duty of care means offering medical aid and help even to someone who may have just tried to harm you. If we skip that part, we’re not talking about the full picture.

It’s a hard ask of any human, but it’s part of the job.

An excerpt from a recent talk I did on the theme of blossoming and values.

My mission at Merging Path?Helping people have all the conversations they continue to avoid in their personal and professional life.

I hope you use your voice to ask for what you want too. What could you create for yourself if you did?
