PREKURE

Most leaders default to giving instructions.

The problem? Instructions create compliance - not ownership, innovation, or change.

Gareth Holebrook breaks down intent-based leadership and the Navy story that shows why clarity of intent matters more than control. When leaders stop telling people exactly what to do and start setting the mission, performance changes fast.

This thinking sits at the heart of effective coaching, leadership, and behaviour change - in business, health, and teams.

AI models are now scoring 70% to almost 100% on final-year medical exams.

The pass mark for humans? 60%.

In this episode, Prof Grant Schofield, Kayla and Jackson unpack what that actually means - including the part most people miss: these results are from offline models with zero internet access. No Google. No browsing.

So if AI can outperform students in exam conditions… what happens in real clinical settings?

My name is Louise.

Remember your name. That was the advice I got from Dennis Ross during a writing coaching session I had with him earlier in the year.

Dennis said, "Stop trying to be 'Nikki' and be Louise. Be you, unchanged." So I did. Thank you, Dennis!

And by doing this, I grew my capability. Levelling-up is the ONE word that describes my year.

2025 has seen me:
- Bringing in a General Manager at PREKURE and letting go of the vine
- Turning down investment
- Getting raw on LinkedIn
- Stopping the second-guessing and starting to back myself
- Finding my confidence

And 2026?

That's where I step even further out of my comfort zone, grow my network, and build partnerships that scale PREKURE globally.

Follow me Dr Louise Schofield for the real stuff about growing and leading.

A brilliant way to close out 2025 with 265 graduates stepping into prevention-led coaching.

Here’s to the impact you’ll make next. Prevention is Cure. 💚

Episode #31 is one you won’t forget. Prof. Grant Schofield sits down with psychologist Dr. Alia Bojalova as she shares the moment in Syria when she and two United Nation colleagues were taken hostage - and how they talked their way through it. A raw, gripping look at fear, human nature, and resilience under pressure, and what captivity taught her about survival and purpose.

A massive congratulations!!

Congratulations to Our Co Founder, Kylee Long 💚🌿

We are incredibly proud to celebrate our Co Founder, Kylee Long, for her outstanding achievements at the PREKURE Graduation Evening last week.

Kylee stood on stage as a Certified PREKURE Master Holistic Health Coach, a milestone that reflects years of dedication, learning, coaching practice, and deep personal growth. This acknowledgment is a testament to her unwavering commitment to elevating the health coaching profession in Aotearoa.

Adding to this special moment, Kylee was also honoured with the PREKURE Community Spirit Award for 2025. This award recognises someone who consistently uplifts others, strengthens the community, and supports coaches to grow with confidence. Anyone who knows Kylee knows how naturally she embodies all of this and more.

At Ko Wai Coaching Collective, we see every day the heart Kylee brings to her mahi. Her leadership is grounded, generous, and values driven. She works quietly and intentionally behind the scenes, always focused on creating spaces where health coaches can flourish. Her belief that when we support each other we all rise is woven into everything we do.

We are deeply grateful for the compassion, wisdom, and integrity Kylee brings to this kaupapa, and we are honoured to walk beside her as we continue to grow our mentoring, supervision, and professional development offerings for coaches.

With the Master Coach Certification complete and the TIIPS research study nearing its final stage, this next chapter is set to be transformational for both Kylee and the wider coaching community.

Kylee, we are so proud of you and excited for all that lies ahead. 💚✨

Ngā mihi nui,
The Ko Wai Coaching Collective Team
