Course Details:
This 90-minute, on-demand webinar, originally presented to the ICF Career Coaching Community of Practice, focuses on understanding diversity, equity, and inclusion in career coaching.
The presenters will review terminology, concepts, and a case study related to equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) using the lens of career interventions for BIPOC communities in West Coast Turtle Island.
The presenters will share their journey to create a career development program that addresses the unique challenges that they both experienced as Black women navigating careers and workspaces within Canada, as well as the continued barriers they observed within their community.
Participants will have an opportunity to apply EDI to a career coaching context and explore how identity, privilege, and discrimination can impact both expectations and outcomes when it comes to career exploration and development.
Through this session, there will be opportunities to discuss how applying a decolonialized lens and interventions can provide an inclusive approach to your career coaching practice.

Step into the New Year with Intention
Choose a single word that represents your vision for 2026. This word can serve as a theme for the year, reminding you of what matters most. It can also be a powerful tool to use with clients, helping them clarify priorities and set boundaries around what to do more of and what to set aside.
Holistic Coaching for Healthcare Providers
Join Kenzie Wilcox-Ingebrand, PCC, certified holistic life coach and presenter with ICF, for a powerful exploration into the world of holistic coaching for the healthcare community. In this session, Kenzie shares her integrative coaching method designed to support those who witness trauma routinely, often without emotional release or processing. You’ll learn how to help clients identify emotional states using tools like the Feelings Wheel, reframe limiting patterns, create self-awareness through prompted journaling, and implement restorative grounding exercises.
Kenzie will also demonstrate how to support clients in developing healthy boundaries rooted in their core values, while distinguishing them from reactive or self-protective barriers that can hinder wellbeing. Attendees will walk away with practical tools, coaching prompts, and body-based awareness practices that they can immediately use with clients.
Kenzie’s work reflects her unwavering belief that when healers receive healing, the ripple extends to the entire system — colleagues, partners, children, and communities.
Supervision for Wellbeing
Participants will observe a live supervision process with an experienced coach (with a particular focus on the realities of team coaching – complexity, multiple stakeholders, systemic pressure). A well‑held supervisory space enables coaches to slow down, name what they are carrying, and reconnect with their own judgement, boundaries and inner resources.
We’ll explore what actually shifted for the supervisee, what enabled that shift, and how this differs from mentoring, peer support or simple venting. We will explicitly link what happens in the room to core dimensions of practitioner wellbeing: emotional containment, reduced isolation, ethical robustness and sustainable engagement with clients and teams.
The session is designed for coaches and team coaches who are curious about supervision but may not yet have experienced it and want to explore its deeper, restorative function. Participants will leave with a clearer felt sense of what supervision can offer them personally and professionally.
