One of the best aspects of being a coach is being held to a high standard.

A coach's life should clearly embody growth, purpose and vision.

Ann-Marie lives those values daily in many ways. For example, in her work as a

Buddhist Chaplain she focuses on: Care of the Caregiver, Peacemaking,

EcoPsychology and Contemplative End of Life Care.

Combined with the element of surprise, the cultivation of gratitude arises from many

different purposeful actions. In our group we will be studying, experimenting and

actualizing into our lives the components below:

• Fostering what is alive and passionate within ourselves

• Contributing to the lives of others

• Contemplation and meditation

loving-kindness and compassion

• Mindful awareness in this very moment

“One of my passions is contributing to the lives of others. Coaching gives me that opportunity.

Together we let go of the story, create a view that is much larger…then we step into that view

and move the action forward. The energy shifts. The mind and body adapt. Your life

transforms…YES!“
