Y Ramos-Volz International Journal of Evidence Based Coaching and Mentoring 2018

Confronted by change, people may be afraid to explore and digest their current circumstance, thus missing opportunities. Individuals, coaches, supervisors, and facilitators can benefit from a personalised map to guide them through change transformations. ‘Living Life, in the Meantime’ (LLM) is an arts-based coaching model that encourages self-reflection and expression by the process of building a leaded stained-glass window. Through LLM, individuals create a personalised map to manage the effects of change and the accompanying emotions as well as to support new ways of looking at challenging situations.
