In this episode of Career Coaching Secrets, host Pedro sits down with Nicole Sorrell, co-founder of Lumina Learning and a business psychologist with over 30 years of experience helping leaders, teams, and organizations thrive through self-awareness and human connection.

Nicole shares how her personal life journey led her into coaching and ultimately to building Lumina Learning, a global psychometric and leadership development company operating in over 60 countries. She explains why people are far more complex than traditional personality labels and how Lumina’s approach helps individuals move from unconscious reaction to conscious response.

Pedro and Nicole explore what it really takes to build sustainable change in organizations, the power of community in scaling impact, and why trust and emotional intelligence are non-negotiables for modern leadership. They also discuss the growing role of AI in coaching—why it represents both a potential threat and an extraordinary opportunity for coaches who are willing to evolve.

This episode is a must-listen for career coaches, leaders, and entrepreneurs who want to scale impact without losing the human heart behind their work.
