SUMMARY:Deepening Cultural Humility Through Action: Practical Skills for Health & Wellness Coaches
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW!\n\nDescription\n\n\nDr. Rikki will offer practical guidance for developing greater self-awareness\, recognizing assumptions\, navigating cultural considerations\, and responding thoughtfully when differences or missteps arise within the coaching relationship. \nThe session aligns with the following NBHWC competencies: \nCompetency 1: Coaching Presence\, Relationships\, and Sessions \n1.2.2. Recognize that all biases influence the coaching relationship\n1.2.3.3. Practice cultural humility \nCompetency 4: Ethics and Professional Practice \n 4.1.3. Develop ongoing reflective practices to deepen awareness and cultural humility\n 4.3.3. Honor diversity\, demonstrate dignity and respect for all people\, practice cultural humility \nA downloadable resource may accompany the event and include: \n\nA practical framework coaches can reference during client sessions\nStrategies for navigating cultural considerations in the moment\nGuidance for addressing assumptions\, cultural differences\, or missteps\n\nREGISTER NOW! \nKey Takeaways\n\n\n\n1.\n\nCultural Humility Is an Action\, Not a Destination \nAttendees will leave understanding that cultural humility is not about achieving perfect cultural competence or mastering another person’s background. Instead\, it is a continuous practice of recognizing the limits of your own perspective\, remaining open to being wrong\, and actively seeking to understand clients on their own terms. Coaches will walk away with a shift in mindset: from “Am I culturally competent?” to “How do I stay curious and humble in this moment with this person?” \n\n\n\n2.\n\nYour Biased Automatic Thoughts Are the Real Barrier \nUsing the BATS™ framework\, participants will learn to identify and interrupt the unconscious thoughts and assumptions that derail genuine connection across difference. This session reveals that the moment a coach assumes based on visible identity markers\, without checking it they have stepped out of humility. Coaches will gain a concrete\, repeatable process to catch these moments in real time and redirect to authentic curiosity instead. \n\n\n\n3.\n\nSmall Behavioral Shifts Create Measurable Coaching Impact \nCultural humility is not abstract. It changes what coaches do and say in sessions. Attendees will learn specific moves: how to ask questions that don’t assume\, how to repair when you get it wrong\, how to name power dynamics without shying away\, and how to create space for clients to define their own experience. These practical skills directly strengthen the coach client relationship and improve outcomes\, especially with clients from marginalized or minoritized backgrounds. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCan’t Attend Live? No Registration Needed!\nTo help us keep live webinar seats available for those who plan to participate in real time\, please register only if you plan to attend the live webinar. \nIf you’re unable to attend live but would like to watch the recording\, there’s no need to register. The webinar recording will be available in our On Demand CE Library within 5 days of the live event\, so you can watch it on demand at a time that works for you. \nPlease note: Live webinar registration will close once capacity is reached. \nThank you for helping us keep live seats available for those who plan to attend! \n\n\nREGISTER NOW!
