“With my credential renewal coming up, I enrolled in the mentor programme to revive my practice. Some elements of how I coach had got a bit dusty and underused, resulting in lower confidence.The programme quickly provided a close-knit and supportive group to share and expand each other’s competence, providing insight into how other people handled elements of coaching and ways to meet the ICF competencies differently. It inspired me to be at my best when practising in the group.In the 1:1 mentoring we focused on the fine detail of how I coach, the words I use and how I hold the space. As a mentor, Sarah was at the right level of supporting and validating where I was struggling, while also helping me stretch by trying ways of working I felt less able to use. Sarah was also very generous with her support and guidance for other issues, such as defining who I am and what I offer in my business.Having completed the programme, I now feel more confident in my ability to expand my coaching business. I feel revived and focused on the months and years ahead!”
