Module 1: First Things First and Foundations
We kick off in Module 1 with establishing what Coaching is all about, and the basics of working well with people. We ground everything we do in professionalism, and define it as being knowledgeable, ethical, and capable. We introduce the Coaching Model which will become a guide throughout the course, that is both so incredibly simple, yet can be used to tackle the most complex dilemmas. We explore how people tick, and about how to create extraordinary transformation in your own life and in the lives of others. We take skills of active listening and we take them to a whole new edge. We set up the frameworks to Coach people successfully.
Module 2: Engagement and Change
With the basics established we start to get into the serious business of creating change. We travel from the moment you first meet a Client, through the structure of coaching, and into taking them through into deep and transformative process work. We investigate story, breaking patterns and cycles, and open up new possibilities. We bring in the power of games and processes that can really shake things up. We introduce the Shadow Model, an extraordinarily powerful framework for unlocking potential and power, and create an understanding of behaviour, conflict, and shame. Then we finish all of this off with physical integration of the learning.
Module 3: Conflict and Boundaries
In Module 3 we explore one of the biggest challenges that people face and that is how we do conflict with other people, and discover the reasons that most people avoid it, and how to turn uncomfortable conflict into an exciting opportunity for everyone to get their needs met. Through this we will get to explore the use of props and tools, leading us in to doing Swordwork, and amazing way to teach people to have the most amazing and powerful boundaries in their life. We then delve deeper into boundaries and see what lies beneath this such as with love, compassion, and forgiveness. We then explore what it means to become a powerful negotiatior.
Module 4: Trust and Relationships
We complete the first half of the course content with exploring the dynamics of how relationships work, and how tangled up trust can become as a result of the experiences of our life. We then work to develop deeper levels of trust, and how this impacts on connection and belonging. We add to this by incorporating creating goals, being focused, taking action, and developing accountability for self and for others. Then we dive in again even deeper into the dynamics of relationship, the different forms of relationships in our lives, and a focus on romantic relationships and the transformative impact that they can have in our lives.
Module 5: Values and Identity
Now we turn the mirror back onto ourselves and start to face some of the big questions of: 'Who am I?' We will explore how we go about defining our identity, and all the problems that can be caused by simply believing that our identity is our past. Then we launch into making powerful and effective decision making that works in all areas of our life. Truly game-changing stuff. We go on a breathtaking journey into understanding what our Values are and how they impact in our lives, and what is required to clean them up in both who we are and what we do. We also delve into the power of archetypes, and of working with both grief & loss, and justice & fairness.
Module 6: Passion and Purpose
Next we go on a journey of exploring the bigger questions of passion and purpose in our lives; when are we just going through the motions, and when are we actually doing something truly meaningful with our time on this planet. We delve further into what having a deep and healthy sense of self-love is, and what it means to live 'on purpose'. What does it mean to live a life of integrity, of grace and honour, to have true freedom, to face down our fears with courage, and to recognise what we are truly capable of. We then return again to what a truly passionate relationship looks like, and how to reset and restore even the most tired and bruised relationships.
Module 7: Life Challenges and The Deep End
By the time we reach Module 7, you will be ready to face some of the real big stuff that happens in people's lives. We look head-on at some of the deepest and most defining patterns of our lives, and the challenges that can come from this. We look at how people can so often get caught in patterns that they don't understand, which can lead them into finding themselves into places of addiction, and mental health issues. We will confront trauma and abuse, how common it is, and how to work with them. More we look at ways to deal with these challenges which are both unconventional and effective, which can even take us to a place of achieving the impossible.
Module 8: Integration and Sharpening the Sword
After an epic journey through the course, we can now reflect on how far we have come, and then we start to lay out the road map into our professional future, rich with possibilities. We will understand what it means to have the sharpest of swords, able to cut through any situation. We will explore the evolution into mastery through the practice of synthesis. We will explore what setting up a coaching business is about, and wise ways to consider doing this. We will celebrate our freedom to break the shackles and to be able to express ourselves, and then to celebrate still further with a ceremony of recognition. We also gaze into the next rabbit hole...
