Lots of people contribute lots of things to this program. These are the folks who have put up their MONEY. So that other coaches can be trained. People who otherwise could not.

Goff Legal, PC — Estate Planning & Trusts
At first glance, estate planning might feel far from “coach training.” But Ali’s sponsorship gives us something deeply aligned: the recognition that our clients (and we ourselves) are thinking about legacy, meaning, and what comes next. The coaching journey, after all, asks, “What do you want your life to stand for?” and sometimes, “How will your absence be felt?”
Ali’s trust-and-asset-focused practice supports the infrastructure of a meaningful life. Her backing supports coaches who are helping others step into their vision of legacy.

The heart of his work lies in helping clients rediscover their own inner wisdom and take bold, authentic action.

Coaching Dynamic Aging
Aging, when approached with curiosity and vitality, can be one of life’s most creative chapters. Joan Virginia Allen, founder of Coaching Dynamic Aging and co-author of Dynamic Aging: Simple Steps to Whole-Body Mobility, and now, her personal memoir, Navigating Dynamic Aging invites people to explore what’s possible at every stage of life — with energy, intention, and fun.
Her work reminds us that personal growth never stops. The same spirit that fuels coach training — the desire to expand, to inquire, to evolve — continues well beyond midlife. Joan’s sponsorship is a celebration of that truth.

So much Gratitude!
Each of these sponsors brings their own distinct light. And together, they illuminate what coaching is really about: awareness, movement, and transformation.
So to our sponsors: thank you. You make it possible for our coaches to step fully into their purpose. You make it possible for them to reach more and deserving humans. You model what partnership looks like. You show us that support isn’t passive — it’s active and intentional.
And to everyone reading: take a moment to explore these incredible organizations. Each represents a facet of what’s possible when people commit to growth — for themselves and for others.
Together, we keep shining the light forward.
