A Tribute to our beloved friend, Coach & Mentor: Sandy Hogan | Scholarship & E- Book |
On September 21, 2019, the Lord called our friend, Sandy Hogan, home. Sandy played a key role in helping develop our outstanding processes at the Institute. She was a certified Integral Coach and a lead program instructor. We love and miss her dearly. If you didn't get a chance to meet her, we'd love to share her legacy with you. Sandy was truly a Renaissance woman. She was a very talented artist and designer, who worked in many mediums. She was an award-winning photographer, potter, jewelry maker, and paper artist. |
Sandy loved to create special personalized pieces for her friends and family. They cherished the handmade cards, pottery, and jewelry she crafted for them. Sandy loved singing and had a one-woman recital for her friends and family. As an avid collector, Sandy loved to find just the right item at just the right price.
Sandy also loved her dogs and rescued many PBGVs (Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen) over the years. She worked tirelessly with the Humane Society and the PBGV Health and Rescue Foundation.
We are grateful for the lasting impact that she left on the Institute and hope you enjoy today's tribute to her.

I first met Sandy in 2006. I was fresh out of coaching school. I happened to sit next to her at our local ICF chapter holiday party. In her amazing eloquence, she took me in to mentor under her. Over the next few years, she invited another newer coach and me to come and visit with her each week. In exchange for her mentoring, she said, "Just bring me lunch. Surprise me!" It was life changing.
She was my first introduction to the caliber of possibility that coaching held so high. She was my first introduction to my True-Self. She was truly amazing and inspiring! I would have left my calling and passion for coaching in the dust, if it were not for her tutelage, love, and coaching heart.
Before she passed, I had the honor of caring for her. She allowed me to ask her questions, and I would scribe her answers. These reflections are captured below:

She was with us when the idea of the Institute was still in seedling, and then took root for the first time in 2011, with Prescott College. She will be with us always and in all ways.
Our Dearest Sandy:
We are the torch holders of your profound wisdom, inspirational teachings, and brilliant coaching legacy. We will continue to deliver the highest caliber trainings in your honor, for decades to come.
We were blessed to have you with us from the start, a brick in the foundation of our heart.
With Love,
Laurel

I too have been blessed by Sandy's presence in my life. She mentored me over the years and led me to my calling as a coach. She had a way of seeing right into your heart and inviting you to see in there too. There are those experiences when life is forever changed, and my life deepened immensely when I met Sandy. Loving her always.
