I’ve been extra busy working with four talented Green Door artists this Summer. Each individual has benefited from face-2-face coaching with me as their coach and I’ve enjoyed every single minute of it. From dealing with challenges such as procrastination and […]
So quite unbelievably I have not posted in 4 months … this is for a couple of reasons; the main one being that I severely injured my right eye in April and have only recently stopped treatment and have now […]
Last Friday marked a new chapter in my coaching life as I (and 13 other amazing individuals) became accredited coaches. Following this period of intensive theoretical knowledge and in-depth practical learning I am still amazed at the transformational process of coaching. […]
a-n is supporting 15 places for its members to remotely access a series of coaching sessions with an accredited coach, and 25 places to remotely access advice from one of five visual arts mentors.
Securing a place on the a-n Visual Arts coaching course was the nudge I needed to propel me into an area of artist development that has great meaning to me.
14 a-n members have been awarded fully-funded places on the a-n Visual Arts Coaching Course with RD1st 2018.
Hellooooooo (I meant to put that many “o’s” by the way and in my head sounded quite like Mrs Bucket (Bouquet), if you don’t know who that is shame on you). So I have no written for quite a while […]
Thoughts on developing a Coaching practice
One of the aspects of coaching that I’ve become interested in, although perhaps not quite as proficient in as I would like, is the idea of ‘clean’ coaching. Clean coaching includes the use of clean language which is “a simple […]
Trying to find the right words to describe my coaching practice following my completion of the RD1st coaching for artists course funded by a bursary from a-n The Artist Information Company.
Reflections on the RD1st Coaching Course 2017 and beyond. Course fees funded and attendance supported by a bursary from a-n The Artist Information Company
Notes on my experience completing the RD1st Coaching Accreditation course funded by A-N.
For me, an artist and a coach, the question I want to respond to is one of ethics. How does a contract of trust manifest when using coaching methods outside coaching contexts? When operating as a coach I am […]
Visual and performance artist Caitlin Griffiths blogs about her experience on the a-n funded coaching course with RD1st
So this week I made a breakthrough and I largely owe that to coaching, my co-coach and the way coaching has really allowed me to work through and process stuff I had not been dealing with. Although coaching is not […]
So last week I did my first completely solo coaching session outside of the course (still for free) and with someone I do not already have a connection. I have already undertaken hours of coaching, whilst on the course and […]
Narrative from the RD1st coaching accreditation programme 2017, course fees funded and attendance gratefully supported by a bursary from a-n, The Artists Information Company…
“Self Awareness – The ability to realistically ‘see’ ourselves and be aware of our goals, beliefs, values, drivers, ‘rules’ (our ‘oughts’ and ‘shoulds’) and our self-talk (both positive and negative- inner gremlin and inner angel!)” (Relational Dynamic 1st Coaching […]
So I know I only wrote yesterday and no one is probably reading this anyway but I have also decided to use this new blog as a way of reminding myself that I am actually doing stuff to move things […]
…..And so it was on a Wednesday morning that I found myself full of trepidation, wondering what the hell I had done, driving into the Dukes Arts Centre. A very surreal experience for me as I lived in Lancaster for […]
So this week has seen the first module of our A-N/RD1st coaching program. It has been a bloody knackering week to put it bluntly. Thanks in part to my husband forgetting to book the hotel we had to stay in […]
I got a place on the a-n/RD1st coaching course and a bursary to support it, thank you very much A-N…. This is where I take you on the journey with me and attempt to become an artist coach without trying to fix or break anyone….
As a-n launches its dedicated coaching accreditation programme for the visual arts, Pippa Koszerek speaks to the four artists who tested the waters in 2016.
This is a re-blogged post from my website – you can see the original here… For a quick definition of the different types of coaching, take a look here. What is a coach? As an arts professional and educator, the […]
