From the Editor

Greetings
from a brand-new graduate student! Last week I dove into a new school,
a new home, and a new phase in my life. Looking around my apartment
today, it is safe to say I may never finish unpacking, but I am surrounded
by books and possibilities, so I’m happy.

It seems as though change is on all of our minds this month. Please enjoy our
articles that discuss the many changes you face at the turn of a season, and
the many ways you can continue to grow and improve. As usual, the IAC is growing
and offering helpful resources, so don’t be afraid to browse the website
and stumble upon something new!

A big thank you goes out to Natalie Tucker Miller this month, who has not only
been consistently essential to the VOICE, but to many components of the IAC.
Thanks for all of your hard work, Natalie, it is much appreciated!

Please feel free to contact us at voice@certifiedcoach.org
with comments, questions, event notices, or article contributions. Enjoy the
many changes life throws your way!

Best,
Beth Ann
