First one-to-one mentor coaching

I just had my first one-to-one mentor coaching with

yesterday. Her friendly, kind, yet strongly professional demeanor made the whole experience very warm while remaining decidedly clear. She takes her role to heart and believes in the value of the standards set by the International Coaching Federation. I knew I was in good hands.

I have done many trainings in my life where I develop my craft under the guidance of a mentor. It's always an experience where one has to leave their ego at the door and be in it for professional and self-growth. Marina's feedback was so helpful to prepare me for meeting the ICF standards. I came away with concrete areas for 1. areas I need to strengthen (a lot!) and 2. areas where I have demonstrated the required competencies.

I am excited about fine tuning my coaching in the weeks until our next meeting. I will work to reach the markers, a goal for which I am equipped between Marina's clear explanations and her written assessment. I have all the information necessary to reach that goal. Now it will take me really applying her recommendations during my coaching sessions. I'm on the path!
