Really looking forward to attending the ALT Conference #ALTC26 in Cardiff this year, and leading a workshop on strategic and leadership capabilities. This time of year always brings back many conference memories for me :)

Re-reading this today as I picked up this beautiful little edition recently. I wish I had discovered this essay and Rebecca Solnit’s wonderful work much earlier in my life. Even so, every time I revisit it I find new meaning for me.

Reflecting on my week… how was your week?

It's been fun recording this podcast series: Part 1 explores journaling about professional practice. So once you get writing, or recording, or sketching, how do you know what to say? In Part 2, we explore the power of finding just the right prompts. Enjoy! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1...

Happy it's Friday! This has been one busy and productive week, mostly spent at my desk deep in coaching and consultancy projects. I did have a trip to meet up with a fellow free-lancer friend and we even spotted some blue sky as well as giant snowdrops. #smallwins

View from across Coaley Peak, near Stroud, England, UK across the Bristol channel towards Wales. Nice to get a bit of blue sky.

Now in its third year, my hybrid leadership coaching course has evolved again. As I get ready to work with a new cohort this spring, I've been working on unpacking what makes it such a unique offering... and listening to the feedback from previous cohorts. www.marendeepwellcoaching.com/hybridhabits
