From Survival to Conscious Leadership — Presence, Values & Relational Courage

A 90‑minute experiential workshop for coaches and leaders on navigating tough conversations with presence and relational courage. Learn how to raise issues clearly, set boundaries respectfully, repair trust, and communicate with intention.

What if leadership wasn’t about avoiding hard conversations,  
but about having the relational courage to step into them in ways that build wellbeing and performance?

We’re excited to share an upcoming WA Branch ICF event that explores exactly this:

From Survival to Conscious Leadership

Presence, Values & Relational Courage

A LeaderSHIFT‑inspired, Fierce‑informed coaching lab for ICF coaches & leaders

Hosted by Chantal Blais.

This is not a traditional “sit-and-listen” session.

This is an immersive, experiential coaching lab designed to strengthen your ability to navigate uncomfortable conversations with clarity, accountability, and presence. Skills which are deeply aligned with the ICF Core Competencies including Presence, Trust & Safety, Listening, Evoking Awareness, Facilitates Client Growth.

What we’ll explore

  • Why conversations go into survival mode and the cost (burnout, drift, trust erosion, performance dips)
  • How to raise the real issue without escalation (facts vs story; values; clean stakes)
  • How to take responsibility for your emotional wake (presence as a leadership intervention)
  • How to make clean requests and agreements that create movement (not resentment)
  • How to build repairable trust using fast-repair protocols
  • How to install micro-habits that sustain capacity for courageous dialogue

Whether you’re navigating performance feedback, boundaries, misalignment, or stakeholder tension, how you enter the conversation determines the outcome.

You’ll leave with a structured conversation pathway + capacity practices that improve both relational quality and execution.
