Coaching pathways and topics

The lists below are example areas of study, built from my methodology and principles, we can cover together in a unique training pathway that includes private coaching and video study. All of these topics have previously been offered in a larger mastery level immersion program, but which I now cover in a more fluid, consultative manner. Many of these topics are covered in already-filmed workshops, which you will be able to watch and follow up with me privately to workshop for yourself and your situation. What you need and where you start will be determined in our initial meetings. All clients must undertake non-negotiable ongoing virtual open studio workouts with me in order to undertake training.
