About the coach:

Zakia Carpenter-Hall is an expert in personal development and using myth, metaphor and story to facilitate herself and others in navigating unexplored territories of being and the great journey within. She writes, coaches, and has delivered workshops in a range of settings (Including the National Association for Writers in Education Conference and The Clean Coaching Conference). She was selected to participate in the first cohort of writers to receive accreditation in NAWE's Coaching Course for Writers.  She's always learning which often results in her adapting and creating techniques that help others solve problems in imaginative ways. It could be said that any problem is really a problem of the imagination. Because when we use the full extent of our imaginative power, is there any problem that we cannot address and eventually solve?
