Coaching in a Time

Between Worlds

Cultivating Clarity and Confidence in the Face of Uncertainty

An Online Coaching Mastermind

Today we find ourselves living in unprecedented transitions. The global scope of change we face together is disrupting how we live, work, and love. Consequently, we require new forms of thinking, feeling, and relating. Whether your life has retained some homeostasis or you are currently immersed in crisis and loss, collectively we all require courage, vision, and discipline to shape better-shared futures.

We see three skills essential for you to successfully navigate the complex transitions shaping our world:

Generative Dialogue

First, we must be able to foster more generative conversations. Genuine dialogue is breaking down, especially across differences and in the face of complex issues. We must be generators of real discourse and sincere inquiry if our relationships, communities, and institutions are to successfully navigate our complex transitions.

Beloved Community

Second, we must revivify the legacies that teach us how to harness love in service of realizing the beloved community. For too long we have been commandeered by ethnocentric, rivalrous dynamics that divide us against one another leading us to dominate, exploit, and war with ourselves and our planet. To continue on this path is self-terminating. We must learn to enact the beloved community where differences no longer divide but are thresholds into greater liberation, fairness, and radical creativity.

Awakened Calling

Too many of us suffer from scripted lives, transactional relationships, and dwindling dreams. As a result, we all too often hug superficialities and organize ourselves around the status quo and convenience. The grand unknown of our collective potential is left untouched. Successfully maneuvering in this time between worlds demands the realization of our collective potentials and greater value creations. As such, we must become infused with our life callings. We must chase our ultimate significance. Real commitment, deeper sacrifices, and heartfelt devotion must infiltrate and take over how we enact our purpose

Coaching in a Time Between Worlds is for individuals who:

Have a deep commitment to being for one another no matter race, gender, creed or any other difference.

Have a learner-mindset: Openness, humility, hunger for learning

Want to expand their ability to work with us-them dynamics and creating truly inclusive cultures that can include our differences.

Want to be in a training context where they are challenged in a supportive environment to find new ways of being, behaving, and serving individuals and groups.
