Relational Practice: Coaching
Coaching through Tigerseye Studio and Consultancy is a relational practice for clarity, grounding, and transformation.
Our coaching is rooted in a liberatory approach, which partners with individuals and groups to support them as they move through life and leadership. At Nia Weaving, we create space for intentional and purposeful reflection, alignment, strategic execution, and restoration.
Through coaching, we focus on uncovering and strengthening the ways leaders already hold wisdom, solutions, and possibility.
Coaching practice space provides:
support with strategy and finding the right tool for the moment
opportunity to ground in personal and collective values and release what is no longer necessary
ability to meet the moment and do so with awareness of systems and power, and
space to thread intention and purpose into every stage of your journey.
