Whetstone 1
Whetstone 1 is for coaches to reinvent their practices and hone their distinct voice within the larger coaching profession
Whetstone is not for the faint of spirit. It is a year-long development seminar for coaches delivering high-level services for their clients and communities as a form of their highest self- expression. It is, in effect, a graduate program for coaches looking for continuing development with peers who are already experts.
The program assumes you are a metaphorical warrior working through purpose and is designed to sharpen your sword so you can be on the growing edge of your own evolution.
The intention of this program is to give you an opportunity to shore up your voice and grow as a person, in addition to supporting you with whatever is next for your practice as designed by you. We work towards both expansion and precision, grounded in a deepened ownership of our relationship to service from spirit, for spirit.
I loved my experience! Whetstone was the soft landing that I needed in a world full of competing demands, priorities, distractions, and noise. The program is an invitation to carve out time in your life and business for inquiry, imagination, pondering, and ultimately personal transformation. I found myself frequently integrating the readings and assignments into my conversations with friends, colleagues, and clients. It is such a luxury to ponder the meaning of life and to do so in community with other like-minded humans. Marita is a grounded, hilarious, and deeply thoughtful coach who creates a powerful experience for the participants. Overall, I highly recommend the program.

Some Inquiries of Whetstone 1
You and Phenomenon: The Lived Life
What is your experience of yourself and your life, phenomenologically? What is the experience of others of you as a phenomenon? How does your experience of you affect your Being, your ability to Be and Be With?
You and Measurements
How to be a creative force in any area of your life and enable creativity in any area of your client’s life, from a grounded relationship to reality.
You and Spirit
You in full partnership with Spirit (God/the Universe/LIFE/your higher power as defined by you) while in a process of flow and discovery.
You and Possibility
Explore the edges of possibility for yourself and your clients, how possibility links with creativity, and how possibility works systemically.
Whetstone was a profound professional and personal experience for me. I created a whole new relationship to my profession and learned to empower and express my personal voice as a coach. I would recommend this program to anyone who is committed to transformation and to the sacred profession of coaching.
