Call for Presenters: Share Your Self-Care Practice!
Dear Coaches,
As we step into autumn and the holiday season, ICF-CT is hosting a Day of Relaxation & Learning for our chapter members on Friday, November 7th at the Connected Approach Leadership Center in New Britain, CT. This special event is designed to help our community of coaches build and strengthen their self-care toolkits — both personally and professionally.
We are seeking presenters to guide experiential self-care practices that participants can easily integrate into their daily lives. If you have a practice, approach, or tool that supports stress relief, reflection, or renewal, we’d love for you to share it with our members!
If you’re interested in presenting, please fill out the application at the link below.
All applications must be submitted by October 17, 2025. Presenters will be announced October 20th.
