Would it Be Alright if Coaching Got Easier?
People who come to coaches are motivated, talented and intelligent! So why do they find it so difficult to take authentic action toward their goals and dreams? Whether as coaches or clients, we all naturally encounter difficulty when we start out for whatever is important to us. It's called "trouble at the border."
Discover not only why this phenomenon is inevitable, but more importantly how to help clients to keep going with clarity, focus, ease and grace. Uncover ways to "normalize" this experience so that coaching takes place effortlessly, both for the coach and the client.
Included in this presentation are strategies for using your clients' Life's Intentions to keep them anchored as they put their ideas, dreams and vision into physical reality. In addition, you'll be introduced to a four-step approach that can help your clients shift the focus of their attention from self-limiting internal dialogues to the promise of possibility.
From this interactive presentation participants will learn:
- The six most important forms of energy we are here to use to achieve goals and dreams
- Specific strategies to uncover the self-limiting internal conversations that diffuse their clients' energy and prevent them from achieving what they desire.
- Methods to help move their clients beyond their customary limits toward meaningful goals.
- A specific coaching practice used to help clients focus on what is important to them.

SF Coaches Book Club
The SF Coaches book club was started in 2007 to offer a monthly discussion forum centered around a specific book in the personal growth realm. Each meeting is facilitated by a coach who is an expert in that topic. The discussion is relatively unstructured and is open to anyone who would like to participate, whether or not they’ve read the book.
Everyone is welcome! Come be a part of an interactive, eye-opening discussion.
The club meets on the 3rd Wednesday of each month from 6:30 – 8:00pm at Books, Inc. Opera Plaza, 601 Van Ness Avenue, SF. For more information or to join, contact Liz Agnew at info@sfcoaches.com.

Bay Area Coach Mentor Calls
The four Bay Area ICF Chapters have come together to sponsor a Bay Area Mentor Coaching Call every quarter. The chapters regularly receive requests from newer coaches for mentoring. For all newer coaches, this is an hour devoted solely to you and your concerns.
Next Mentor Call:
October 29th
12:00-1:00pm PST |

Here’s the scoop:
- The purpose of the call is to ‘mentor’ newer coaches; i.e., answer questions and help navigate the sea of newness.
- Each call features a seasoned coach, someone with years of experience who is making a living and a difference as a coach.
- The format is pure Q & A, with newer coaches asking the questions, and the seasoned coach providing the answers.
- Questions might include: How important is a niche, how did you get started, how do I pick out a coaching school, and anything else you want to know.
- The calls are recorded and put on the SF Coaches website in a password-protected area so you can hear them again and again. Access this area by clicking on “Member Sign In” in the lower right corner of any page.
- Unless otherwise specified, the calls are held on the last Wednesday of the following months: January, April, July and October, from 12 – 1 PM Pacific Time.
You’re invited to join the calls and learn from those who’ve been there and done that ~ “see” you soon!
