What a whirl-wind of a week! Drove to Orlando to support my partner in crime with Compass at the ICF Convention and of course I made some great contacts myself for my own personal professional development. It really was a great time. Compass had a booth there as did many other vendors that geared their products towards the coaching community. There’s a lot of great services and product out there to assist coaches and to help the coach’s support their clients. The coaching profession is growing exponentially. It’s pretty amazing to witness it and be apart of it!
I’ll tell you what else was really special to see- watching British, Kim G and Kim B work their magic to really get the word out about Compass. Kim B was signing people up on the spot. Kim G was reeling them in with strategic questions and her ever so inviting presence and British was magnetic as usual. At one point, she was hosting small convention within the convention as she had several women at once have a seat (in a semi-circle) as she gave an impromptu presentation and Q & A about Compass. It was amazing viewing the frenzy around the Compass booth.
By now you’re probably wondering where did I fit in. Well, I have a few skills too you know. I drew in a bit of a crowd, however I simply introduced and connected them to one of my experts i.e., British 
My primary role was to support her for this event. I enjoyed it immensely of course. My goal is to have a booth on deck next year with a couple of ventures i’m developing at this moment.
I strongly encourage men to support their wives/girlfriends in any business ventures she may be pursuing. I can’t express how meaningful it is to the community and most importantly, your wife/girlfriend. When she knows she has your buy in and support it makes it so much easier for her to thrive and really focus on making her dream or the venture as successful as it can be. It’s nice to see her happy and it’s just as nice when she can see that her husband is incredibly proud of her…no matter the results of the venture.
I’m very proud of my B!
