Mark Power Coaching

Mark Power Coaching Coaching is about strengthening and growing, and becoming more powerful in your life.

It helps you discover your authentic self, allowing you to attain meaning, particularly during significant life transitions. The coaching journey is about exploring “outside the lines” of life as it is now. It’s about inquiry and exercises to awaken insight and a better understanding of what holds us back from making the changes we want to make in our lives. The supportive partnership of a coach e

ncourages accountability which is often where our resolve meets resistance. Even a brief coaching engagement can refresh your curiosity and ignite a glimmer of excitement as you release old assumptions and move forward into a creative new chapter of your life.

Another facet of living fully is taking time to reflect on what’s most important in our lives. Coaching relies on this; carving is a great metaphor for transformation; contemplation connects us to spaciousness and creativity. I offer guidance and support for developing a contemplative practice. And then, there’s my online store for some spoon love!

Just a word to clarify: my coaching site is also my carving store. These two aspects of my creative work have much in common: attention, curiosity, patience, creativity… So, I gave them a home together in my new website (link in bio) Check it out if you’ve got a minute. Shout out to Lizzy at EC Studios for her wonderful work creating the new site. I recommend her highly!

Status report: Spurtles… very simple form, not so simple medium (mostly black walnut). Wavy grain makes for a pretty piece but it sure makes you work for it. I’ll let them dry for a day or two and then do finish cuts, some sanding, and oil them. I’ll post the final results then.

Next weekend, an abundance of beauty to soothe the heart and mind - good for holiday gifts as well! The craftsfolks represented (see card) are stellar, creating in glass, wood, copper, reed, stone, shape, color. It’s a great show.
