Oh my, what a summer it’s been! I do a lot of “checking-in” as part of a dozen monthly supervision groups and a clear theme has been emerging across most of them: Stretch! It seems that part of what the pandemic caused was a contraction, a holding of the breath, a going-inside, not just physically, but psychologically; … Read more

  There are two special events I wanted to make you aware of coming up in June and July. If you know someone who you think would benefit from learning about the existential coaching landscape, I’d really appreciate you passing this on to them.
