I was privileged and incredibly blessed to have been present when these were introduced at an international conference shortly after Thomas’ unforeseen, sudden death. He was 43 … and left a legacy every coach has connected with sometime in their career… some of us, more personally and deeply than others.
Continue to grow your greatness, everyone. Find a life coach and meet with them regularly.
Phone, Skype, Walk-n-Talks, In-person. … Monthly, weekly, bi-weekly, day-long excursions …
A dialog with a partner like this is a powerful, spirit-lifting, life-fueling encounter of a wonderful kind. (I know because coaches have coaches. … and my clients tell me this too…)
If this resonates, and working together sounds most delightful and wonderful, let’s find a way to work together. More
Love and light, and Live what you love. – Anne
Happy Spring!
