Navigating Ethical Dilemmas in Coaching Practice

What do you do when the way forward isn’t clear – and every option carries risk?
Ethical dilemmas in coaching rarely arrive neatly labelled and sometimes it isn’t clear they are ethical dilemmas. They show up in moments of tension, uncertainty, and competing responsibilities.
This is where many coaches feel stuck.
In this upcoming conversation, we explore ethical decision-making when complexity is real, including:
• Real coaching case studies where boundaries, power, and responsibility aren’t obvious
• Practical frameworks to support sound ethical judgement under pressure
• How to stay grounded, reflective, and aligned when there’s no perfect choice
Ethics in coaching isn’t about rule-following.
It’s about discernment, self-awareness, and the courage to pause when certainty is unavailable and reflect.
If you’ve ever thought “I’m not sure what the most ethical move is here” – this is for you
