S6. Bonus Episode: Holding Space in Coaching Supervision

Season 6 bonus episode on discovering your inner supervisor

In this bonus episode on systems-inspired supervision, Katie speaks with Director of Continuous Development Sunčica Getter on the importance of supervision and developing your inner supervisor. 

Key takeaways from this episode:

• Supervision allows us to access new levels of awareness and hold them with a sense of intrigue and compassion. It is a powerful space that creates connection and reflection.
• Supervision is a slower, holding space that allows for pause so that we can recognise themes and patterns at individual and collective levels.
• We are instruments in our own work, so we must take care of ourselves. In this space, we can rest, restore and bring to the surface patterns that may not be visible to us.
• When we develop an inner supervisor, we can bring that greater awareness into many areas of our lives, helping shift patterns within ourselves and the systems in which we live and work.
• Patience and pause are essential parts of supervision. Supervision is a process focused on patterns, rather than a product geared toward action. In this space, we can zoom out and connect to the bigger picture in our individual and collective systems.
