TCC - Connection, Community & Summer Conversations

Connection, Community & Summer Conversations

July offers us an opportunity to slow down, reconnect with one another, and appreciate the relationships that make coaching such a meaningful profession.

This month we're highlighting one of our newer members, sharing a refreshing summer recipe, inviting you to join us for a casual July gathering, and remembering a remarkable member of our community whose generosity touched countless lives.

Remembering

Neil Miller Belenky

August 8, 1944 – June 16, 2026

Some people quietly become part of the foundation of a community.

Neil Belenky was one of those people.

Whether serving in leadership, volunteering his time, or simply showing up fully present in conversation, Neil embodied the spirit of service that coaching encourages in all of us.

Founder Joyce Richman shared these words:

"To TCC he was a gift. Despite his leadership, his titles and honors, whenever he joined us he was one of us. He was a coach's coach. He was the consummate volunteer, stepping forward to do whatever was needed, whenever we needed it."

Neil leaves behind a legacy of curiosity, generosity, wisdom, and genuine kindness.

Our thoughts are with his family and everyone fortunate enough to have known him.

July Program

Most coaches don’t struggle because they lack skill, heart, or good intentions. Often, the biggest barrier to business growth isn’t strategy — it’s self-leadership.

In this practical and reflective webinar, Jaime Mann will explore why coaches often know what to do to grow their practice, but don’t consistently do it. We’ll look at how imposter feelings, avoidance, emotional reasoning, unclear offers, and identity gaps can quietly interfere with visibility, confidence, and consistency.

Participants will explore the shift from “coach mode” to “business owner mode” and identify where they may be downplaying, hesitating, or waiting for permission. The session will include reflection, discussion, and a simple weekly Business Identity Reset Ritual coaches can use before writing content, networking, having sales conversations, pitching themselves, or reviewing their numbers.

Participants will:

Identify the self-leadership patterns that may be interfering with business growth, including avoidance, imposter feelings, emotional reasoning, and unclear business identity.
Recognize the difference between “coach mode” and “business owner mode,” and where that identity shift is needed in their own practice.
Apply a simple weekly Business Identity Reset Ritual to support greater visibility, clarity, courage, and consistency in business-building activities.
