“Compassionate Coaching” is performed by Project New Day “Master Coaches” who are experienced life coaches and have been awarded certifications in four additional areas:
Before considering becoming a Master Coach or Community Group Facilitator, please take a moment to understand the what, who, why, and how of the Project New Day Program.
What are we doing? We are creating a model that will help reduce needless suffering and deaths.
Who are we serving? Initially, we are serving people who have turned to addiction as a means of coping with life’s challenges. Later on, we will broaden our scope to other manifestations of trauma such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD.
Why are we helping? Because we can and it is the right thing to do. Moreover, helping is an important part of everyone’s development and well-being.
How will we go about it? By creating and studying a healing model that combines compassionate coaching with clinical psychedelic therapy and follow-on, weekly community Zoom sessions, we intend to demonstrate the program’s efficacy and scalability and make all aspects of the model (guidelines, procedures, videos, and online courses) available to the world at no cost.
