Whether employees are in training or facing a challenge on the job, at some point everyone would like to get a little help.

Coaching Wellness—for Your Client and You In this session, we will follow two concurrent tracks in the often under-explored area of wellness: learning new coaching distinctions around making commitments (aka Resolutions this time of year) and shifting perspective to open up greater possibilities, while simultaneously exploring your own internal conversations and paradigms about your body and health. Sarah Robertson and TRUCE will be our discussion leaders |
