Hey. You may or may not know about the wellness program that I designed for CoachVille called the Fully Alive Makeover Program. It has been one of the communities that made up the Schools of CoachVille's 1,000 hours of coach training. I based it on the work that I do with my wellness coaching clients and of course, since I trained at Coach U and CoachVille, it was influenced by the work of Thomas Leonard.
Anyway, my deal at CV was that I would get a percentage of the profits generated by the community and by sales of the SOC in exchange for sharing my work with them and I got the cool title, "Visionary Coach", to boot. The profits were to be paid for life (and paid to my daughter, after I'm gone). Well the profits have been pretty skimpy and since I officially left CV last year, they've been zero, so I recently asked CV to take down Fully Alive. The good news is, they've agreed!
After May 5th, Fully Alive will no longer be available through CoachVille. I know SOCers have been attending the classes, tho taught by Community Coach, Adela Rubio, who has valiently carried on. I don't want anyone to miss out, plus I'm used to getting $zip for Fully Alive, so what I've decided to do is run the entire program for FREE.
Today, May 2nd, is the first class that I've done on this subject for 10 months. It's a new class, tho, on "The Inner Body", a cool concept that you can read about in Eckhart Tolle's book, A New Earth. This particlular class is aimed at coaches, because it's scheduled as part of the Confab (Plus if there was ever a group that needs to upgrade its self care, it's coaches!) tho the program is for everybody.
I'm thrilled to have Fully Alive back. It was languishing in obscurity at CV and the material really is important, especially for coaches. And selfishly, I'm looking forward to getting back into my natural habitat, which helps me make healthier choices for myself. (My recent trip to NY & NJ was celebration of over indulgence from champagne to bon bons and everything in between. Celebrations are fabulous and getting back to self care is a relief!)
If you'd like to stay informed about free classes coming up via the Fully Alive Wellness program, sign up at www.fullyalivewellness.com Adela and I will be teaching.
See you there!

This is a phrase that Donna Steinhorn and I came up with the other day and I've been thinking about it ever since. It has a nice ring, but what does it mean, really? What would make a coach a consummate coach? What accomplishments would such a coach have under his/her belt?For that matter, what would constitute an "accomplished coach"? I like both of these phrases and think they might describe useful benchmarks for those of us who are committed to excellence. You know, there's the "being" aspect of excellence, but there's the "doing" part, too. I think benchmarks are useful in measuring how we're doing.I think Consummate Coach includes Accomplished Coach, so I'm going to throw out some ideas for what I think it might mean to be accomplished. I'm curious if you agree...Read entire post at the Coaching Blog.
Hey, I'm way overdue posting to this site. My apologies! A lot has happened, though, since my last post. Donna and I hosted our first ACE Live Event in NYC, which was a great success. Plus, I moved to Missouri. (Talk about a change of venue!) Some things are still the same, though: like my subscription to FastCompany. In a recent article, Michael Eskew, CEO of UPS mentioned the importance of "constructive dissatisfaction" in running a successful company. He says complacency is the enemy...Read entire article at the Coaching Blog.
Well, our Confab meeting with guest mentor coach, Barbra Sundquist, on "Do Coaches Need to Get Real?", was very high energy! There are a lot of smart coaches on the calls and they're not shy about sharing. Barbra didn't get to talk as much as we expected, but gracious as she is, she recognized that it was a great call, anyway! (If you're not a member, yet, go here: http://www.coachingconfab.com. You can also access the free recording of the call and previous calls, there.)Several callers mentioned my recent post, "No Wonder Clients Aren't Buying", so the call became a discussion on marketing; what works, what doesn't, and what's just plain repugnant. I'm getting lots of feedback on that post and on the Confab meeting. We've really struck a nerve in the coaching community! Read entire post at the Coaching Blog.
Great conversation in our first Confab! It left me with lots to think about ever since. I'm honored at the amazing group of coaches who have subscribed, so far, and can't wait to get back together with you! I already feel like twice a month isn't often enough, so I decided to set up a blog, so I'd have somewhere to go when the mood strikes. Originally, I'd planned a newsletter for this group, but a blog fits the conversational style far better. With a group of coaches this experienced and talented, the posts are bound to be mind-bending...Read entire article at the Coaching Blog.
