The Transformational Social Change Coaching Model

Explore the understanding of self and the systems in which we live before working toward change. Focus includes Identity, Bias, and Conditioning. Power Structures, Trauma, and Resilience, and Social Hierarchies (Race, Gender, Class, etc.). The aim is to help individuals and communities see the root causes of problems, not just symptoms. 

Prepare individuals to be emotionally regulated so they don't lead from trauma. Focus includes emotional regulation, shadow work, trigger mapping, restoring self-worth, and repairing internal conflict. The aim is to help individuals and communities become more capable of building bridges, not burning them down over time.  

Develop understanding of how change happens through people, not policies. Focus includes Trust, Communication, shared values, conflict resolution, and community building. The aim is to help individuals and communities collaborate more effectively across differences in perspective, approach, and experience. 

Examine how the way we talk shapes the way society moves. Focus includes language that empowers, not divides, naming injustice with clarity, turning conflict into learning, and facilitation skills. The aim is to help individuals and communities speak with clarity, courage, and compassion.  

Detail how real change requires structural intervention. Focus includes policy, power mapping, institutional behavior, and social systems (i.e., healthcare, education, policing, and economics). The aim is to help individuals and communities learn where to apply pressure to generate transformation.   

Explore how change doesn't happen until people move. Focus includes personal commitments, community actions, advocacy planning, and skill development. The aim is to help individuals and communities clear the path from intention to impact over the course of time.
