Description
This is a community conversation for coaches who want to share experiences and wisdom, exploring Emotional Intelligence in the context of supporting clients through the discomfort of change. Transitions—those in-between times when the old dissolves and the new hasn’t yet arrived—can amplify emotions for both coach and client. Together, we’ll explore how emotional intelligence, self-leadership, and mindfulness equip us to meet these liminal moments with presence and clarity. Expect guided reflection, breakout discussions, and shared practices that will offer fresh insight, foster a sense of community, and deepen your capacity to coach at the edge of transformation.
Key Takeaways:
🔷 Learn how to recognize transitions as fertile ground for emotional intelligence.
🔷 Explore tools for staying present when emotions run high in coaching sessions.
🔷 Connect with fellow coaches in facilitated discussions about real moments of transition.
