Journ0-Coaching. What’s that?
In my work as community supported journalist at the Coaching Commons (www.coachingcommons.org), I’ve gotten to know a lot of the best career, life and business coaches in the world. They are fascinating people who ask tough questions of their clients, and offer blunt but often brilliant thoughts in return. It got me thinking about our business: for many of us, we’re at a scary crossroads. The business we’ve always known is collapsing, and something new is rising up to take its place. What does it mean? How do we adapt? Where do we go when the career path we always planned for suddenly doesn’t exist anymore?
Good questions. I believe journo-coaching can help guide aspiring journalists and storytellers–and mid-career pros–through the rocky terrain to a thrilling future. We’re literally being given a chance to re-create what journalism is and will be for the rest of our lives. If you want in, and want some coaching on how to thrive in this time of change, I’d love to work with you.
