La Dolce Vita for Coaches: Ancora

The next chapter of La Dolce Vita for Coaches, created for those who want to continue to go further and deeper into coaching mastery, held in the beauty and quiet elegance of Pisa.

We are returning to Tuscany and are held once again by the calm and beauty of Bagni di Pisa. This environment supports the work in ways that are difficult to replicate elsewhere.

One of the best gifts I have ever given myself both for personal development and life-affirming joy.

Who Ancora Is For

Ancora is intentionally only open to coaches who have previously attended La Dolce Vita for Coaches. It builds on shared experience, trust and language, allowing the work to go deeper more quickly and with greater honesty.

During Ancora, we’ll explore how experience is created for you and your clients and how that insight influences the way you listen and speak in the partnership. Coaching presence is central, deepening as confidence grows and you become more at ease with yourself as a coach.

Across five spacious days, professional development and personal renewal are woven together against the glorious background of an 18th Century Ducal Palace in Tuscany.

Mornings and early afternoons are devoted to advanced coaching exploration. You’ll deepen your presence, sharpen your awareness and engage in learning that is playful, reflective and experiential. It is designed to stretch you gently but meaningfully, all within a small group of peers who already share a common language and level of experience.

Ancora encourages you to slow down again and notice what really makes the difference in your work and to integrate that at a deeper level than is possible in day-to-day practice.

Your mastery develops further through conversation and reflection as well as experiencing space, beauty and the Italian art of living well. Ancora is about allowing your coaching to deepen as your way of being continues to evolve.

La Dolce Vita for Coaches: Ancora invites you to experience even more of the “sweet life” both professionally and personally, so you leave with a renewed sense of energy and perspective and a deeper awareness of what truly makes a difference in your coaching.

What stood out most was the exquisite crafting of the programme itself: the location, the content, and the balance between deep learning and time to relax, meander and enjoy the company of other amazing coaches.

About Cath

Hi, I’m Cath Daley.

As an ICF Master Certified Coach with 24 years of experience, I’ve discovered that the most profound coaching breakthroughs happen when we balance rigorous skill development with genuine renewal.

Having mentored nearly a hundred coaches to ICF credentials (with a 100% success rate), I’ve developed a unique approach to coaching mastery that combines technical excellence with authentic presence.

I believe the beautiful setting of Bagni di Pisa isn’t just a backdrop – it’s an essential catalyst for our learning and growth. I can’t wait to share this extraordinary experience with you as we elevate our coaching practice while embracing La Dolce Vita.

Benvenuta a Pisa!
