COACHING
I orient to coaching as a collaborative form of peer work where together, we will reflect on, vision towards, and actualize the goals and dreams you have for a meaningful, liberated life for yourself and your communities.
I offer both individual and organizational coaching.
-
Individual coaching is a one-on-one relationship aimed to offer clients the tools, space, and support they need to actualize their liberatory offerings, projects, and values. My approach to coaching is rooted in an understanding of systems of oppression, as I seek to support each person to become actors of change within their particular spheres of influence. I have experience working with clients on topics including thinking through challenges related to work, purpose, and group collaborations, how to balance an array of political, work, artistic, and life commitments, accountability with long-term projects and offerings, receiving support in making larger work and life transitions, and/or arriving at values-driven decision-making in organizing spaces and work places. As a coach, through active listening, strategic questions and activities, and compassionate accountability, I aim to create a warm and supportive environment that fosters resilience, growth, and transformation.
-
Organizational coaching is an investment in the ongoing well-being and growth of a group or organization. As an organizational coach, I provide external, one-on-one support for individuals within an organization. Organizational coaching is tailored to group’s collective area of focus and/or growth, which may include strengthening anti-oppression frameworks, skillbuilding around conflict, or addressing pain points within working relationships. Organizational coaching resources an entire group of people moving towards actualizing shared visions together.
