Itβs nice to *virtually* meet you.
Us three pals met through our work in crisis intervention. We began looking for ways to make crisis intervention easier - not necessarily easy, but easier. In our search we were lead to ICF coach training and when we took our first course our minds were blown.
π»We started incorporating what we were learning into our own work. As we began iterating and redesigning our crisis intervention curriculum, we started noticing consistent results that supported counselors to engage in their work with more ease.
β¨ When participants began telling us the training was helping them in there personal lives in addition to crisis intervention we knew we tapped into something special.
π€― And then when they started asking us to support other organizations, we knew it was time to see how we could share what we have learned.
π So here we are - we are on a mission to build a more supportive and compassionate world. Doing so we are sharing the tools we have applied to our work so that service providers, counselors, and public servants like you can make the impacts you are here to make - because we know this world needs you and all the goodness you have to offer it.
