A Coaching Model By Tessa D’Arcangelew Ampersand
Transformational Coach, UNITED STATES

Communities can gain tremendous strength by coming together and working towards a common goal. Community organizers, artists, educators, and nonprofit workers are frequently those who bring people together and build power; their skills, abilities, and purpose-driven lives are like the water and care that nurtures seeds into the garden. My coaching focuses on those who are starting a movement, working creatively, working for nonprofits, and in an often-overlooked middle ground: at the center of a career, employment, or the past and the future. While I was in the midst of my career and feeling stagnant and worn out, I was given the opportunity to receive therapy that is normally only granted to senior and executive-level managers. Those in non-profit and movement positions who recognize their POWER can use this method to combat burnout or workplace aggravation.
