In the wake of a pandemic that brought the world to its knees, it has become increasingly clear that human wellbeing is the province of all coaching, whether in leadership, career, team/organizations or specifically, health. We have all become aware that wellbeing -- in every human domain -- is critical for success in life, which is why this book is important and well-timed. The editors have compiled a rich set of resources both scholarly and practical to support coaches in navigating the complexities of modern life that plague us all: time management, diet, lifestyle, balance, motivation, technology overload and so on. This book will be a ""go-to"" resource for coaches committed to coaching with compassion, while grounded in science. A must-read!'
