Hello from a tired traveler. Having just returned home from São Miguel, Portugal, I am brimming with stories to tell, and couldn’t resist sharing one picture of the breathtaking scenery. From hiking the crater of a volcano to enjoying octopus salad with the locals, I am fulfilled and exhausted (in a good way!) Spending time on the island of São Miguel enlightened me to many new things and I found myself asking questions at every turn. I look forward to returning to my “real life” with the same sense of wonderment and curiosity!
As Susan and our contributors address in various ways this month, we are constantly surrounded by opportunities to learn new things. Sometimes these learning experiences are hidden in our everyday routines, and sometimes they jump out at us in vibrant, unexpected ways. However we encounter these moments, it is wonderful when we can approach them with a thirst for knowledge; a desire to grow and learn.
Along with the articles from our fantastic contributors, the IAC provides many learning opportunities. Be sure to check out information on the May teleseminar and the International Leadership and Coaching Conference below.
It is important to take a moment to acknowledge Martha Pasternack, who, as of this newsletter, is officially one of our monthly contributors. I hope you appreciate her lovely voice and look forward to her unique insight each month as much as I do. Welcome aboard, Martha!
Diana McFarlane also deserves major acknowledgment. I have begun to understand the intricacy of the IAC and how hard each and every person works, and must make it known that Diana is the one who transforms all of these words into the accessible and readable VOICE that you see before you. Thank you Diana, for your talent and time!
As always, we look forward to your comments, questions, and article contributions for the future of the VOICE. Thank you again for your support. Please contact us at voice@certifiedcoach.org.
Best, Beth Ann
