You’ve already been certified. You’ve already got paying clients.
You know how to coach—and you care deeply about doing it well.

But mastery isn’t a destination.
It’s a standard you choose to uphold, again and again.

The Skilled Coach Standard is your space to deepen your skill, refine your instincts, and get high-level mentorship on real coaching scenarios—with zero pressure to be perfect, and no need to start from scratch.

Inside, you’ll get support, strategy, and structured guidance that helps you coach with more confidence, clarity, and intentionality—because coaching isn’t just your business, it’s your craft.

Build your voice. Sharpen your skill. Grow your impact.

 

The Skilled Coach Standard Philosophy

You’re already a powerful coach.
Whether you focus on life, relationships, business, health, money, faith or leadership—
you bring the passion to help, the fundamentals from your certification, and the lived experience to support others with care, curiosity, and courage.

These foundations are more than enough to serve with depth and integrity.
And when combined, they form the beginning of your unique coaching style.

But mastery doesn’t end at the beginning.

Every skilled coach benefits from thoughtful refinement.
Every seasoned coach grows through intentional reflection.
And every great coach is made even greater by the presence of a mentor—
someone who can illuminate blind spots, challenge with respect, and hold space for the evolution of your craft.

At The Skilled Coach Standard, we believe certification tools aren’t rules to follow.
They’re frameworks to build from.

We honor what you already know.
We help you expand what you’re capable of.

This isn’t about doing more to prove yourself.
It’s about going deeper to trust yourself.

You bring the foundation.
We bring the space to uplevel it.

Because investing in development isn’t a sign of weakness—
It’s a mark of your professionalism.

1:1 Mentorship: Where Your Coaching Evolution Accelerates

Want high-level support in a more personal container?

Private mentorship with Dawn is available on a limited basis.

This is where we deep dive and go behind the scenes of your coaching in a powerful one on one container. We focus on:

  • Your identity as a coach
  • How to build and navigate your unique style with confidence
  • Where doubt or imposter syndrome might still be quietly running the show
  • What’s working—and how to build on it, strategically
  • Specific client session scenarios and how to facilitate breakthroughs and transformation

This is not pre-scripted coaching.

It’s real-time mentorship shaped by your real-world experiences.

You already have what it takes.

Private mentorship helps you see it, trust it, and use it—brilliantly.

Core Principles of The Skilled Coach Standard

These aren’t just beliefs. They’re the backbone of this space—and the kind of coach you are.

Meet Your Mentor: Dawn Ledet

The Self Trust Coach

Hi, I’m Dawn. From the moment I entered coach training and experienced my first instructor-led session, I knew I was meant to mentor other coaches. Not from a place of having all the answers—but from a deep love of the process and a gift for translating the “why” behind each tool into something clear, usable, and personal.

Over the past several years, I’ve logged more than 4,000 hours of  coaching and had the privilege of mentoring hundreds of coaches across diverse styles, niches, and philosophies. Through that, I’ve developed a refined framework for navigating the client journey with clarity—one that helps coaches use their tools intentionally without feeling boxed in by them.

My expertise isn’t about teaching you a rigid system.
It’s about helping you refine what you already know, expand what’s possible, and evolve into the most powerful version of your coaching style.

I believe you are already a great coach.
The Skilled Coach Standard is here to help you trust that—own it—and continue to grow from that place of grounded confidence.

Because real mastery is not about having all the answers.
It’s about knowing how to listen, adjust, and lead—while staying rooted in your own voice.

In this mentorship, we do both:
We honor the coach you already are and support the coach you’re becoming.

I’m here to walk with you—every step of the way.

💫 A Few Things That Make Me… Me

  • I’m known as The Self Trust Coach, but I promise I don’t have it all figured out—I just believe in walking through the doubt with curiosity and compassion. And learning—from myself and others—when to adapt, adopt, or abort the lessons in favor of what works best for me.

  • I have two rescue pups who are constant sources of love, laughter, and life lessons (plus more coaching metaphors than I can count).  They were an integral part in my faith journey and the stars of Trust. Surrender. Obey.  my most recent book.

  • My dad once built me a full theater-style makeup station—not because I asked for it, but because he noticed I kept leaving the house with an unfortunate foundation line between my chin and my neck. His way of protecting me from embarrassment? Big lights, a giant mirror, and the kind of support only a dad can give. 💗

  • My favorite moment in any coaching session is when a client starts to see themselves the way I do—when they shift from seeing themselves as the obstacle to what they want… to realizing they’re actually the way to it.

  • I’m obsessed with that quiet, magical moment when a coach realizes: “Oh. I actually do know how to do this.” That spark of self-trust? That’s everything.

  • And my last name is pronounced Luh-Day. Oui, it’s French. 😉

This Isn’t a Program—It’s Professional Mentorship for Coaches Who Take Their Craft Seriously

No rigid curriculum. No check-the-box certification.

Just real-time support, strategic insight, and thought partnership designed around your clients, your coaching style, and your growth edge.

You bring what’s real—we refine it together.

Whether you're joining The Skilled Coach Standard membership or working with me privately, every path includes full access to the Insight Hub, ongoing community mentorship, and direct support to help you sharpen your skills, deepen your impact, and coach at your next level.

This is where great coaches get even better.
Where your confidence grows because it’s earned—through practice, perspective, and powerful reflection.
