a Love Letter to Coaches

Coaches, mentors, parents, teachers, friends: If ever there was a time to be a catalyst for well-being, it is NOW in this pivotal, poignant moment in history.

- Terez Hartmann

I know we each have our own unique perspective, style of expression and intentions, and that no words will ever resonate as clearly as those that come from within YOU. But when these words presented themselves to me during my “Covid chrysalis time,” I felt compelled to share them.

May this letter ignite a spark within YOU to remember how magnificent you are, that life is supposed to be good for you, and perhaps to encourage you to take pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard/ touchscreen) to “coach the coach” and crafta letter of your own in YOUR own words.

Dear multi-faceted being,

I just want to take a moment to say that I am proud of you. You remain open and willing to see yourself and life clearly—and it is especially nice for you to remember to see and seek the light in your SELF.

It is so nice to see you being kinder and gentler with yourself, as your sweet spirit thrives when you allow your natural well-being to flow.

You are on to something, my dear friend, so keep focusing in easy, relaxed, gentle ways and just as you have seen, the higher emotions are just as beautiful when viewed from a foundation of serenity and satisfaction.

Even though the world may seem to reward those who endure suffering and pain in the name of checking yet another box of accomplishment, it is awesome that this chrysalis time of quiet metamorphosis is showing you that there is another path to allowing the things that truly matter to you: You have opened to the idea that you ARE enough and that expansion is just the natural order of things, so you don’t have to push and suffer for it.
