New Year Coaching Session with Katie Bardes

Explore your goals for 2023 using Clean Language and Emergent Knowledge Coaching with Katie Bardes - coach, counsellor, and psychotherapist.

Hello everyone! I'm super excited and pleased to bring this amazing post to you today! I have mentioned before (and teased this), that I wanted to do some posts around the new beginning, new year feeling that we tend to get in January. Although I know you could say that January is an arbitrary date to set goals, for me personally, having that space over the winter holiday gives me much-needed time for reflection, and I tend to start the new year brimming with ideas and energy for how I want to shape the coming year. I was hoping to run my Creative Re-Set course again this January, but I have a great reason not to - I have book illustration projects keeping me busy. But I didn't want to completely miss this wonderful time for reflection and goal setting entirely, so I am going to make a few posts here on my Patreon instead.

Starting with... this fabulous session with Katie Bardes, who is an old dear friend, who also happens to be a coach, counsellor, and psychotherapist! And I thought it would be extra fun to invite my BFF Tor Freeman to participate in the session - part of my new initiative to inject extra fun and general excellence into my Patreon this year!

So this is a re-recorded group coaching session, that Katie will guide you through. The aim is to to help you explore some of things you would like to happen in 2023, in a non-linear and "emergent" way. It is using a practice called Clean Language coaching (Clean Language means honouring everything the client says by reflecting their words back and asking open questions which will not lead or influence them. Questions are free from the opinions, personal perspective and inadvertent biases of the coach themselves) and Katie uses an Emergent knowledge Framework for this session, by using a series of questions, which are ‘clean’ because they do not lead or influence. Katie has including some links below for you to learn more.
