ALIVE Coaching Model

There is a persistent tension at the heart of professional coaching: the field has developed rich conceptual frameworks for understanding human change, yet the most widely taught models often reduce that complexity to a sequence of steps. The client arrives, articulates a goal, receives structured questions, leaves with a plan. The loop is clean. It is also frequently insufficient.

"The ALIVE model is an attempt to hold two things at once: rigorous enough to orient a complex engagement, and open enough to follow a human being into whatever is actually alive for them today."
