Cup Of Jo: Shifting Gears Away From Trauma Bonds

Shifting away from the drama a team has come through and resetting energy and perspectives toward a more positive future can be a challenge. Occasionally rehashing war stories to relish the bonds formed under pressure can be instructive if done to inform future actions. However, focusing on these times as a way to hold on to the connections formed can keep you (and those you lead) stuck in the past, failing to move forward.

Here's some simple advice on imbuing those connections with generative energy and repurposing them for the future you're working toward.

There is a path to healing. Moving from conflict to reconciliation requires two main elements, but within each, there is real work to be done. In this video, I delve into what they are and why they are important.

It builds trust by creating a culture of honesty, transparency, humility, empowerment, and support, and always has a collective goal as the North Star.

Cup of Jo: Why Integrative Coaching Should Matter To You

Cup of Jo: Why Integrative Coaching Should Matter To You

For anyone new to coaching, welcome!

Coaching is a process by which we choose, with real intention, to see ourselves clearly; discern patterns in thinking, speaking, and acting; identify our core values and talents, and then develop practices that align these elements with what we want to do and how we want to be. There are varying types of coaching - professional, life/personal, public speaking, wellness...you name it. However, in my practice, I take a unique approach that focuses on integration. For those who are curious, here's the short answer to what I do and why it should matter to you.

Cup of Jo: Start Anywhere

Many of us are paralyzed by the belief that there's a predetermined and perfect set of qualifications or tools needed before we can step into something new. I disagree! Getting started requires you to grant yourself permission and know that you have enough of what you need for those initial steps and whatever else is necessary can be obtained along the way.

Cup of Jo: The Impact You Want To Make

Everything we do creates a ripple.  And yet, we often wonder if our efforts bring about any difference in the world. While the answer is always yes, the more important question to answer is, "What is that difference?" or better, "What difference do we want to make?"   One of the reasons I refer to my coaching as integrative is that I believe strongly that tapping into our whole selves is the best way to bring all of our gifts forward.

In that spirit, here is my story about how I came to understand the difference I wanted to make (for my clients and in the world) and why it's so important that we are intentional about the impact we seek to have.
