Going Towards

How do we go towards pain, fear and grief in embracing the scary reality of the climate emergency? How do we as coaches help people do this? And how do we imagine ourselves and with our clients better futures that we want to go towards? What’s the role of coaching in helping us let go of more, more, more? What does success in a calmer, kinder and more sustainable world really look like? And what are the challenges for coaches? How can we truly bring an independent mindset that enables through challenge and humanity?

As coaches, we know the right questions at the right time in the right place can change conversations and make an impact. Come to this session to identify what matters for bridging the gap between what’s needed, and possible, through the transformational benefits of coaching for the benefit of our planet.

Join four of the Climate Change Coaches team to hear how they’ve niched their coaching practices in service of our environment, sharing insights and ideas about the distinct coaching areas that they occupy, including: green career transition, connecting to nature, eating for the planet, climate entrepreneurship and developing leaders in sustainability.

As coaches, we know there are myriad ways we can support people who want to do something for the environment. The team hope to spark ideas with this free conversational hour together.

Hamish, Megan, Emily and Climate Change Coaches founder Charly Fox will explain their niches and then throw open the session for an in-depth Q&A. Come with questions, leave with purpose. This aimed at coaches, but all are welcome.
