Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we took a “coach-approach” to travel? Imagine the possibilities if we asked ourselves powerful questions while visiting the historical sites important to our faith? Those experiences would truly become defining moments. Join us and our guests, Rick and Susan McCarthy, authors of the new book, Defining Moments, as we unpack ways everyone can create defining moments when they travel.

 

Join us and explore:

  • How to use coaching as a tool during travel, so you can help people see things from a different perspective.

  • Powerful questions that add a layer of depth to travel itineraries, so that information can lead to transformation.

 

  • A format that will enable travelers to not only enjoy sights but also experience defining moments that shape their lives long after the trip is over.

 

 

About Susan & Rick McCarthy

 

Susan & Rick McCarthy were transformed during their travels to Israel and found themselves wanting others to have the same divine moments with the Creator. This inspired them to write a book to help others transform faith-based travels into Defining Moments, thus the title: Defining Moments: The Transformational Promises of Faith-Based Travel.

Rick coaches Christian CEOs through Convene, & has been self-employed as a CPA in private practice since 1978. He serves numerous ministries, including The Sheepfold, The Master’s Program, The Barnabas Group, Standing Stone Ministry, Africa New Day, Pacific Justice Institute and Evangelical Christian Credit Union.

His personal mission statement is: To use my gifts to lovingly equip and Influence the Influencers, by challenging their thinking and behaviors and by connecting them with growth and service opportunities, to achieve God’s will.

Susan is also the author of Captive to Captivated, which shares her faith journey of being set free from the captivity of lies to being captivated by God’s love & her calling “To set the captives free”. She also has a calling to pray with ministry leaders and give them a safe place to process hard places on their journeys. She mentors women through spiritual direction and intercession.

Rick has traveled to over 80 countries & Susan to over 70, so far. They reside in Newport Beach, California, and have a shared passion to mentor & coach Christian couples, whether in healthy or troubled marriages.

Would you like to hear how a Master-FULL Coach navigates a real-life coaching session? Not a role play. Not teaching on coaching. Actually listening in, like a quiet mouse in the corner, who gets to observe the real deal. If that's you, hit the play button. Then, be prepared to pause often and take generous notes. You'll walk away with a Masterclass in coaching, which you'll be hard-pressed to find anywhere else.

 

Master-Full Insights:

 

  • Techniques you can use to get a clear agreement from the get-go, so you and your clients can understand the topic, specific focus, and intended outcome of a coaching session.

 

  • Create curious awareness around the focus, so your clients can see problems from a different perspective and consider possibilities they may have never dreamed or imagined.

 

  • Let your clients confidently stick the landing at the end of every coaching session, as you co-create action steps that will propel them into the future God has designed for them.

 

BONUS: Download your own copy of The Coaching Process, and follow the flow, rhythm, and structure of a coaching session, from behind the scenes. You'll be able to use it again and again in your own sessions:

Are you sick of Zoom meetings, audio messages, and trying to do life via phone or computer? You're not alone. Since virtual life is here to stay, we want to share valuable relationship-building techniques you can use to build real relationships, even virtually. Say goodbye to loneliness. Say hello to living and thriving, in community, online!

 

Important because:

 

  • Virtual is the interaction space in which we most often find ourselves these days. We need to up-level our expertise, so we can build quality relationships.

 

  • Collaboration happens when people are willing to be vulnerable over a virtual connection, when they can't meet in person, so God can still work in and through us... even in the virtual world.

 

  • Over the last decade, virtual connections have exploded, but never have they ever been as integral to life as they are now.
