Educational Guide

A narrative coaching framework that uses a tree metaphor to explore a client's life story and strengths. Roots represent family history and background; the trunk represents core skills; branches represent hopes and goals; leaves represent important people; and fruits represent gifts passed down. It is a deeply grounding exercise that highlights resilience and personal identity.
