From Story to Self: Integrating Artistic Process
This experiential session invites coaches to intentionally integrate story, poetry, and meditation into their practice to deepen client awareness, presence, and insight. Grounded in research on creative process and mindfulness, participants will explore how artistic and contemplative approaches strengthen active listening, ethical attunement, and trust-building while remaining aligned with professional coaching standards.
