Transformational, presence-based coaching begins within. If you are a COACH who is committed to growth that reaches beyond the familiar and are ready to explore your inner world and how it shapes your coaching— this is your invitation.

The Inner Edge calls you inward—to reflect on how you make meaning of yourself, others, and the world—and outward toward your edge. Your growth edge is that powerful, quiet space where you meet the limits of your current worldview, where things feel unfamiliar, uncomfortable, or uncertain, where growth waits.

Join us on a five-month mentor coaching journey that blends vertical development with real-time practice, peer learning, and meaningful feedback. Vertical development, a powerful framework that will increase your awareness of the thinking patterns and mindsets that influence your beliefs and behaviors, help form your identity, and limit or expand your coaching.

See how you see the world and what possibilities emerge as you broaden your perspective. Elevate your coaching mastery and engage with the competencies in new ways as you expand your capacity for complexity, connection, and courageous coaching.
