Training, Certifying More CARE-Ready™ Life Coaches

New Certified Life Coaches from l to r:
Georgeanna Washington, Christina Johnson, Vanessa Davis, Ralphiel Davis
  
Pennsylvania, USA--- Tonight, Community Life Coaches, Chris and Carol Green certified and commissioned four new CARE-Ready Providers and Life Coaches into their respective communities.

"This was an amazing class!" exhorted Carol Green, "They were resilient and persevered through six tough weeks to complete the course. They each experienced some type of personal challenge in their lives, but they kept pushing forward to attend the sessions anyway."

As affiliate members and International Statesmen with iChange Nations™, Chris and Carol Green have partnered with United Graduate College and Seminary International to offer an accelerated, ministry-accredited life coaching certification program. Their collaborative purpose and mission has been, to offer leaders, working in under-served communities, high-quality tools that empower and equip them to be more effective in their humanitarian efforts.

"I want to thank you, Chris and Carol, for actually walking in what God has called you to do. I thank God for the structure and the creativity," said Vanessa Davis during her course-ending presentation. She and her husband Ralphiel drove from Hagerstown, Maryland to attend the classes.

"I fix things. That's the way I'm wired," shared Ralphiel. "Now I've learned that I have to trust the process; I'll have to trust the tools and stay the course as we go forward."

Christina Johnson said, "I have adopted Chris and Carol as my mentors. They gave me something that I did not learn in a classroom. I even have my master degree in counseling, but they still gave me something that I didn't learn in a University."

Georgenna Washington summed up the unanimously agreed greatest take-away lesson for all of the students when she said, "This course was so amazing. I learned that sometimes I need to step aside and allow people their own journey, and walk WITH them and not FOR them."

The Green's CARE-Readiness Class involves 10 hours of training that walks prospective coaches through self awareness tools and the need for Intellectual Humility and Emotional Intelligence, while causing the participants to take personal inventory of one's own Wellness and Resiliency; which the Greens say, "...is absolutely necessary in order to make an impactful connection, build trust and partner with one's clients."

CARE-Readiness training includes homework, group discussions, a final project, and an online examination to obtain one's CARE-Ready Life Coach Certification.

Since starting their Life Coach certification program in 2018, the Greens have now certified and launched 55 life coaches.

As the world's leading producers of CARE-Ready Leadership Life Coaches™, Chris and Carol Green teach and train community, government and education leaders, human service organizers, business visionaries, and neighborhood dreamers how to be much more effective by embracing the principles of CARE (Compassionate Awareness with Respect and Empathy) in their professional and personal lives. They LISTEN to people,  LIFT people and LAUNCH people. Then they equip and empower them to do the same for others.

Many coaching, mentoring and community outreach programs employ what is known as a "deficit model" of working with people. That's where you focus on the problems (deficits) of a person, and then apply a set of pre-determined, cookie cutter steps and treatments to address their issues. The deficit-based model is what many well meaning Helpers use, but it rarely works long-term, leaving Helpers wondering why their clients fail to break the cycles of addiction and recidivism.

However, CARE-Ready Life Coaching™ mirrors the principles found in the proven, evidence-based strategies of Strength-based, Solution-focused practices.  Our life coaches are trained to connect with people in order to build a relationship/ partnership that empowers the client; thus allowing the client to discover the solutions that will work best for them.

Also, while many coaching programs focus on how to target potential high-paying affluent clients, and high-paying speaking opportunities, we train, equip and empower Care-Ready Providers and Coaches™, who are willing to take on the most often overlooked people of society; those who live in under-served communities, who can least afford, but benefit the most from professional guidance.
