In a time when words like “diversity,” “equity,” and “inclusion” are increasingly scrutinized or even banned in some professional settings, coaches face a difficult question: How do we stay values-aligned when the language of justice is under pressure? This interactive session invites life coaches to explore what allyship can look like when DEIB must be practiced without being named.

 

Through real-world scenarios, reflective dialogue, and strategic tools, participants will examine how to hold the line on inclusive, ethical, and courageous coaching practices—even when the external environment makes that work quieter, subtler, or more difficult. This is a space for honest discussion, shared strategies, and a re-centering of coaching as a tool for liberation and belonging.
