Empowered Coaches Summit Session
A dynamic workshop on the five best practices for self-leadership, drawing from Jane’s background as an athletic coach. This session explores how leadership is influence and how our influence of others flows directly from self-leadership. Jane teaches practical concepts like “block out” (eliminating distractions), “pivot” (adapting while staying grounded in your core values), “boundaries” (creating structure that binds anxiety), “rebound” (handling setbacks), and “practice and play” (preparing thoroughly while maintaining joy). Participants learn how to positively interrupt their own patterns, create mindset shifts, and take immediate action steps.
