Thank you to a premium sponsor, TNG Coaching! TNG Coaching's vision is to teach values through activity and experience. To guide creativity, instill confidence, champion self-worth, and celebrate identity. This journey begins by reflecting on our own performance. By collecting our thoughts and feelings on paper, both positive and negative, we begin to discern ways to respond to challenges.

Opening a personal dialogue and sharing concerns has been proven to create deeper bonds with peers. Journaling how these relationships evolve can help assign roles and build the support structure every team needs to function effectively. When complete, your journal will stand as a lasting reminder of your commitment to your cause and your ambitions for personal and professional growth.

You can find the Coach’s Journal on Amazon through the link, or go to TNG.coach for more information.
