I hope you are well - I'm writing to you from Marco Island, FL, where my wonderful family joined us to celebrate my 29
th
anniversary as a step-mom!
April's event on Applying for your ICF Credential - What You Need to Know, was an interactive conversation on navigating the application process. Helpful information from those who have made it though! Special thanks to Yana Blackwelder, PCC and Amy Bloustine, ACC for their time and expertise in putting this valuable presentation together for our members. Amy is putting together a guide for those applying through the Portfolio path and will make that available soon. Among her many talents, Yana is an ICF Assessor, and we value her contributions.

International Coaching Week
Join ICF-NYC for a Presentation with Patrick Williams, EdD, MCC and BCC and a Coach Salon reception! Patrick will discuss living purposefully and the importance of courageous, emotionally transparent conversations. Many of us lock things that rarely get resolved in our mental dungeons, yet often we could move forward with conversations that pre-empt potentially painful interactions. Dr. Pat will share the means and methods for personal self-disclosure in an interactive experience. Watch Dr. Pat's welcome message here. Following the Presentation, enjoy an evening of cocktails and lively conversation as we celebrate International Coaching Week and the power of coaching. Our reception starts at 6:15 PM with an array of Passed Hors D'Oeuvres, Antipasti, Filet Mignon Carving Station, Pasta station, and an open bar!
