How can the craft of coaching become something we can give back to our community and to others?
Dez Stephens, CHC, ACC, founder and CEO of Radiant Health Institute (https://radiantcoachesacademy.com/), comes on the show to talk about her journey into coaching, which was initially to expand her skillet in her current career of non-profit work by improving listening rather than diving straight into coaching as her dedicated path. This ended up being her driver as she was lead to help other people become coaches with a coach training. She combined her former world of marketing and non-profit to create a holistic training model that challenges the current notions of service. She started this work when she brought her process and methods international to Honduras.
Dez is a humanitarian coach, social entrepreneur, peoples advocate and planetary activist. She has coached professionally since 2005, and in 2012, founded Radiant Coaches Academy and has trained and certified nearly 500 students in 10 countries. In 2014, her training school earned the prestigious status of offering accredited hours through the International Coach Federation (ICF). In 2017, ICF of Tennessee honored her and her institute with the PRISM Award for the advancement of the coaching profession. Dez received her life coach certification from Guiding Mindful Change in 2005 and also holds an Associate Certified Coach credential through ICF.
