Course Lessons
This course is made up of bitesize modules which you can do at your own time and pace. I designed each lesson with reflection in mind. Throughout each lesson, there are prompts to support you reflecting on what I am discussing. In addition to the video content, you will receive reflective worksheets after each lesson. These worksheets are essentially a self-coaching toolkit. To get the most out of this course, I highly encourage you to engage with this reflective practice.
