Beyond the Page Podcast ~ A Framework For Choice

We are excited to share with you the next interview in our “Beyond the Page” series featuring Jenn Chloupek.

The fastest way to change a coaching conversation isn’t a new tool it’s helping someone see they have options. I’m joined by executive coach, educator, and author Jenn Chloupek  to talk about the power of choice and the ABC Framework she built to make transformation feel clear, human, and repeatable: Awareness, Behaviors, Connections. If you coach leaders, build a coaching culture, or simply want better conversations, this one gives you a practical structure you can use immediately.

We dig into what “awareness” really means beyond surface insight: identity, purpose, strengths, blind spots, and the internal driver that quietly runs your day. Jenn explains how that driver can be both your superpower and your kryptonite, and why stress often shows up when we act like we don’t have a choice. From there, we move into behavior change the small shifts in how we listen, speak, decide, and lead that turn insight into momentum.

Jenn shares a powerful real-world story from a global program with women engineers, where participants named internal barriers and then watched those barriers dissolve through structured reflection and empowered choice. We also separate courage from confidence, and explore what it looks like to “do it scared” in leadership and in business. Along the way, you’ll hear one of Jenn’s favorite coaching questions, why ABC aligns well with ICF core competencies, and how connection becomes the real outcome of the work.

In this episode, I talk with Jenn about her article published in our March 2026 issue.
