"The Essentials of Life Coaching helped me appreciate the skill of coaching to help others make meaningful and lasting change they own because it is coming from them, not from us. One challenge ministers often experience is not knowing what to say in certain pastoral situations. This course teaches coaching skills ministers can use to help others discover paths toward greater flourishing far beyond the limitations of the minister’s pastoral training."

"The Essentials of Life Coaching class was more than a class for me. It was an opportunity to explore, grow, and understand more about myself and the life coaching path God has chosen for me. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!"

"Now, more than ever, the world needs what Catholic life coaches have to offer. If you are thinking about using your talents in this way, the best starting point is the Catholic track Essentials of Life Coaching Class offered via the PCCI. This course provides the very foundation required to know how to best serve your clients by learning how to utilize the ICF Core Competencies, formulate powerful thought-provoking questions, and listen for the promptings of the Holy Spirit. The instructors both guide and challenge you to become the best coach possible. If you think Catholic Life Coaching is what God is calling you to, then the Essentials class is your next step."

"Enrolling in the Spring 2022 Catholic Essentials of Life Coaching Course, and getting to know the PCCI Community, was absolutely one of the best self-development investments I made in my adult life. It’s a game changer for how I lead, coach, and live."

"I took Essentials of Coaching with Lisa and Gary and they were both wonderful instructors, always uplifting and creating a truly inviting learning environment. They were always approachable and showed genuine interest in their students, even long after the course was over. You know that they’ll always be there for you, even outside of a business coaching relationship. Both have amazing human qualities and high integrity standards."

“It was such a blessing to be a part of the Catholic Essentials of Life Coaching cohort and I can’t express enough how transformative the experience has been for me. The instructors are incredible examples of coaches and every session was inspiring and engaging. Through the program, I have developed lifelong friendships and we continue to support and encourage one another spiritually and professionally. The peer groups were especially invaluable in helping me gain confidence as a coach. I not only developed my coaching skills but also grew as an individual. I highly recommend Catholic Essentials of Life Coaching to anyone who is seeking personal growth or coaching skills.”

PCCI’s Essentials of Life Coaching provided me with a strong foundation of coaching skills and competencies that are directly aligned with Catholic values and professional standards of the ICF ethics and competencies. The class provided a richness in not only content but also in exceptional execution of coaching demonstrations, practicums, and continuous development that allows you to effectively grow your coaching skills from class to class. This class has further developed my skills to better equip leaders and their teams in creative and professional ways that draws out the best of them. The Catholic track takes us to the next level with a specific cohort to increase opportunities for specific engagement and applications prayerfully discerned. PCCI is a well-established professional organization that delivers exceptional coach training. I am a proud graduate and certified as a Dual Leadership and Life Coach of their program and ICF certified.

"As an experienced management consultant and successful entrepreneur, I thought I knew how to coach executive leaders to have an elevated level of life, leadership, and legacy. Boy was I wrong! I thank God for PCCI and the Coaching Essentials class that enabled me to see how to better engage and empower the executives I work with on a daily basis.
