As coaches, much like in sales, we are constantly required to think on our feet, navigating new and often unpredictable situations by relying on our instincts and quick judgment. To be truly effective, we must examine our own biases to ensure we do not discriminate, and approach every interaction with a deep respect for different cultures. I think our values are embedded in everything we do, from how we treat people to how we resolve conflict, both with others and within ourselves.

Which term accurately describes the issue: racism, discrimination, or prejudice? When these words come to mind, do they empower me and make me stronger, or do they weaken me and promote dissolution?
Integrating language effectively into action is essential for effective communication. It's crucial to ensure that what you say aligns with who you are as your audience evaluates your genuineness and trustworthiness based on this alignment. I think if you approach communication with honest inquiry and ensure that every word reflects your truth, you're on the path to growth - a golden pathway. On Thursday 7th March, Chiara Marmugi will be the facilitator, Phaedria Marie St. Hilaire and myself will be sharing our perspectives and insights on the complex realities of racism in Denmark.
