Many people don’t know this, Millie started her career as a nun. Then I think she became “the singing nun”.

I first met Millie at an ICF-CT meeting and shortly became intrigued with the possibilities of her “Oasis in the Overwhlem” course.  Millie offers 4 simple techniques to support people in reducing and controlling the stress in their lives in order to be who they really want to be.

The Oasis program isn’t something Millie just teaches.  She trains people so they can take her methods and share them with people out in the world.

Go forth and share is her motto.

Here is a quote from one of our members about Millie:

Millie exemplifies coaching.  She offers her programs to people who can then bring their teaching into the world.  She is an author, mentor, and coach and always out there promoting coaching.

I heard Millie say this at our meeting last month and it is so appropriate to whom I have come to know as Millie Grenough:
I just want to save everyone in the world

So today, for all her outstanding work and dedication to the profession of coaching, we would like to award Millie Grenough, our Coach of the Year .
