The Seasoned Coaches Circles (SCC): adding spice and kick to life, profession, and community through conversation

  • Come to the round table of seasoned peers
  • Get inspired and expand your horizons
  • Go deeper
  • Nourish your soul

Come Gather by the Campfire (fireplace)

New: $20 donations requested to support this valuable learning experience. Donate via paypal or when you get here.

Why We Meet:
Each time we convene the SCC it reaffirms the unique gift we bring to eachother by gathering. We learn, share, & expand with each other’s "seasoning" in ways that we don’t or can’t easily do with novice or new coaches. The SCC provides a space for us to question, to be vulnerable, explore and not be THE expert.

The SCC about our finding new ways:
To stretch us.
To reinvigorate us.
To question the unquestionable.
To challenge the assumptions.
To be the coaching rebels which many of us feel that we are. 
To talk about issues that aren’t normally talked about.
To explore arenas never thought of before now.
To find comfort and safety among true peers.
