Topics Upon Request
RE-ENTRY COACHING
Navigating the complexities of re-entry can be challenging. Re-entry coaching plays a crucial role in maximizing the positive impact of returning back and turning what could be a challenging transition into an opportunity for personal and professional growth.
A Re-Entry Coach can play a vital role in creating a supportive and inclusive environment that encourages personal and spiritual growth for the returning global worker and contribute to a more culturally aware and globally minded community.
Coaching requires your commitment & dedication to work. You'll be asked questions that allow you to pause and hear from God in profound ways, maybe unlike ever before. We’ll uncover what you might need to let go of and create a customized plan of action that will work for you.
