The Key to Transformational Coaching
When clients are overwhelmed, frustrated, or resistant it can seem like you’ll never make breakthroughs. But it doesn’t have to be this way.
When you acquire knowledge and skills, coaching teachers in moments of challenge can be satisfying, and even joyful. When done effectively, you catalyze growth and unlock the potential for transformation resulting in increased resilience and greater fulfillment.
Coaching for Resilience and Retention workshop takes you deeper into the knowledge and skills introduced in Arise: The Art of Transformational Coaching (2024). It enables you to support clients to experience their initial responses to moments of challenge as sources of wisdom that spur their growth, not as obstacles that keep them stuck.
As you learn to coach others' resilience, you’ll also see your own resilience increase. These skills will transform your coaching conversations and are the key to creating joyful, resilient, inclusive places of learning where everyone thrives.

"Focusing on emotional intelligence for both myself and colleagues I will be coaching was very impactful. Emotions are so important to identify and validate so that we can continue the hard work that lies beyond and intertwined with our emotions. I think coaches, admin, and leaders should attend!"
"This [Art of Coaching Emotions] framework is helpful for more than just coaching sessions. As a supervisor and school leader, I can see myself leveraging ACE and learnings from this workshop." -
"Being coached by Elena and fellow participants helped me experience how grounding in conversations in emotions and provided resources can help a client center their thoughts and feelings into words."
"One of the richest impacts has been the web of understanding that’s building around our district as four of the curricular leaders participate in this same membership AND as more and more of our staff members participate in other trainings (Art of Coaching Teams, Coaching for Equity and/or Taste of Coaching for Equity). Having a common frame of reference and range of experiences has changed my learning into a richer, deeper, more powerful community learning experience."
"I grew both my skills and confidence as I learned new layers of coaching and realized how much I already knew. This [experience] of coaching emotions provided a valuable opportunity to practice it with grace and gratitude."
"This workshop will help me approach my clients in a more understanding way, and hopefully lead to more effective support. I enjoyed having Elena as our facilitator! But I also really enjoyed the opportunity to role-play and get real-time feedback. I was in breakout rooms with educators who are not coaches and I think it was important for them to be there - we can all use some support on how to acknowledge emotions."
"This workshop is one of my favorites! Having time to observe and then practice using ACE and the Core Emotions tool made me feel prepared to have those conversations with my clients. I always find the Bright Morning workshops to be the perfect balance of instruction, observation, and practice!"
