Are you overwhelmed by the “rules” of coaching? Do you find yourself pressured to do it right versus doing it naturally? Has your inner critic become a third party in your coaching sessions? As coaches, we walk a fine line between technique and connection, structure and instinct. We believe that it is when we are able to weave methodology with the inner landscape of both coach and coachee that the transformational magic happens. This is the artistry of coaching – a place where we feel confident, centered, and competent. Our coaching becomes more effective, valued, and effortless. Learning Objectives: 1.
