What is the FreerangeCoach Movement?
The FreerangeCoach Movement is about coaches creating experiences with and for their clients. We are standing gratefully on the shoulders of those who created the coaching style of the old industrial era and reframing the coaching conversation to include experiential coaches for people living and working in the post-industrial economy. If you work with teams or information, this is probably you. If your job or lifestyle didn’t even exist before 1974, this is definitely you! If you punch a clock and work on an assembly line; and your deepest hope is to continue doing this, you will not enjoy it here.
What are our stories about?
1) Personal Growth and Development
You may already have a coach (or more than one!) You are doing your own work to grow. You are signing up for classes, workshops, and retreats, because you know you are worth the investment! Welcome home, we are your kind of people. :D We are also reading the books, seeking out the resources, meditating, listening to the Podcasts. Some of our favourites include Brene Brown, Seth Godin, Tim Ferriss, Byron Katie, Rich Litvin, Glennon Doyle, Michael Singer, Nedra Taweb…
2) Experiential Coaching
More Somatic
More Embodiment

Triactive Coaching
3) Working With Teams
Emotional Literacy, communication, leadership
4) A work from anywhere lifestyle
It is easier than ever to work from anywhere with an internet connection, which opens up new flexibility to design and create the life you want! We love coaching clients who are using this to create life on their own terms! Also, our coaches wander freely between Coaching Trips and Speaking Engagements; enjoying a balance between the emplacement of home, and the freedom to explore as a digital nomad.
5) Building Your Coaching Business
Building a traditional coaching business is a lot of work, making it three dimensional with client experiences adds a layer of complexity. These articles will explore topics important to you from client creation, asking for better referrals, creating an enthusiastic audience that is unique to you, writing Press Releases which will get you noticed, Securing Speaking Engagements, Writing your next Book with style, Better Branding, Initiating and nurturing Professional Partnerships (think Air Jordans)
6) Media Mentions
When someone from our FreerangeCoach Movement is interviewed, gives a TED Talk or the FRCM is mentioned in a Magazine, Blog, Podcast etcetera, this is where we will share it with you.
You are welcome to pick your favourite category or explore all five. Enjoy, connect, frolic.

The Card Sort came into my life through a coaching client Kayla Viitamaki who is a UX (User Experience) Designer. For over two years we had been trying (and failing) to complete a Wheel of Life Exercise, and we would always find some more useful (if tangential) way of engaging with her needs and the life she was creating for herself.

Over the past twenty five years I have piloted various vessels ranging from small sailing dinghies to fifty foot twin engine power boats and a few things have revealed themselves to me as universal. The sea is the ultimate teacher for me, bringing forth knowledge not attainable in other arenas.
Are your habits controlling you? If so, you are not alone. The lives of many people are controlled by their habits. It may be time for some discipline in your life.
By Terry Barkman - Even if it takes a long time for someone’s business to become successful, questions of worthiness become the primary issue because almost nobody starts a business that becomes immediately successful.
