Reviews

A unique and fascinating peek behind the scenes of this blossoming branch of coaching, Inside Creative Coaching will prove an inspiring resource for creatives and coaches alike. -Eva Weaver, creativity coach and author, The Puppet Boy of Warsaw. Creative and performing artists will get as much out of Inside Creativity Coaching as coaches and therapists will. These forty case studies present a clear picture of the challenges that creatives face-and what they can do to meet those challenges. Highly recommended! Roccie Hill, Executive Director, Mendocino Art Center
