The Skilled Coach
Standard

A Professional Development Space for Coaches Committed to Mastery

You've already been certified. You already have paying clients. You know how to coach β€” 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. This is your space to deepen your skill, refine your instincts, and get high-level mentorship on real coaching scenarios β€” with zero pressure to be perfect.

Because coaching isn't just your business. It's your craft.

What You'll Find Inside

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

Weekly mentorship calls, a growing Insight Hub, PCU credit system, peer community, and optional 1:1 private mentorship β€” all in one professional development space.

The Philosophy

Mastery Doesn't End at the Beginning

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

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 β€” someone who can illuminate blind spots, challenge with respect, and hold space for the evolution of your craft.

"At The Skilled Coach Standard, certification tools aren't rules to follow. They're frameworks to build from. We honor what you already know β€” and 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. Because investing in development isn't a sign of weakness β€” it's a mark of your professionalism.

Core Principles

You Are Already an Exceptional Coach

You don't need to prove your skills β€” you're here to keep sharpening them. Professional growth isn't a sign you're behind. It's what sets you apart.

Mastery Is a Practice, Not a Title

You don't need another certification β€” you need deeper conversations, nuanced feedback, and high-level spaces that stretch your thinking.

Tools Are a Starting Point, Not a Script

Your training gave you a framework. Mentorship helps you make it your own β€” fluid, flexible, and deeply aligned with your style.

Mentorship Builds Confidence and Clarity

The best coaches have mentors. They ask better questions, seek feedback, and challenge their own thinking β€” together.

Your Presence Is the Real Magic

The most powerful tool in your sessions is you. We help you show up grounded, present, and unshakably connected to your client.

Self-Trust Leads the Way

When you trust yourself, everything else follows β€” your confidence, your coaching, your impact.

Dawn Ledet, The Self Trust Coach
Meet Your Mentor

Dawn Ledet

The Self Trust Coachβ„’ Β· Coach Mentor

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 β€” 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. I've developed a refined framework for navigating the client journey with clarity β€” one that helps coaches use their tools intentionally without feeling boxed in by them.

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

πŸ’«Known as The Self Trust Coach β€” I don't have it all figured out. I just believe in walking through the doubt with curiosity and compassion.
🐾I have two rescue pups who are constant sources of love, laughter, and coaching metaphors. They star in my book Trust. Surrender. Obey.
✨My favorite moment is when a coach realizes: "Oh. I actually do know how to do this." That spark of self-trust? That's everything.
πŸ‡«πŸ‡·My last name is pronounced Luh-Day. Oui, it's French.

Questions

Before You Join

Not at all. While many of the tools and frameworks explored here are rooted in concepts from coach training, the focus is on how to deepen, refine, and evolve those foundations β€” not follow them by the book. What matters most is that you already have solid coaching fundamentals and a commitment to continued growth. If you've coached real humans β€” for pay, for practice, or for the love of the craft β€” you'll feel right at home here.
Absolutely. One-on-one mentorship can be added based on availability, and members get first access to openings. Combining the membership with private mentorship is a pro move β€” and a powerful fast track to mastery.
Neither. This is professional development through real-world coaching scenarios, active mentorship, peer practice, and evolving support. The kind you get from a certification β€” including credentials β€” but ongoing, more affordable, and more directly relevant to your actual clients right now.
The Skilled Coach Standard is a month-to-month membership β€” stay as long as it serves you. Easy cancellation before your next billing cycle. For those who want to commit to the long game, the annual option ($600 for the full year) saves you $564 and is available at checkout.
Inside the membership, you earn PCU Professional Development Credits through real engagement: asking or answering questions in the hub, attending calls, participating in coach exchanges, and submitting session videos for review. Credits add up and unlock badges you can share as part of your credibility toolkit β€” especially when speaking to potential clients who value coaches who actively invest in their growth.
No β€” these badges are not formal certifications. They're a visible, meaningful way to showcase your ongoing commitment to coaching mastery. You're not starting over and you're not adding another credential just to pad your bio. You're earning PCU credits for deepening your skillset, participating in real conversations, and consistently refining your craft.
Yes! As soon as you join, you'll get immediate access to the Insight Hub and the Ask Your Mentor community. You can start exploring the lessons and asking coaching questions right away. Live group calls are scheduled weekly β€” you'll receive the full calendar after joining.
Right now, you can join as a founding member for just $97/month or $600 for the full year. After the founding window closes, the price doubles β€” and the monthly option disappears. If you're in, grab your seat now. This is the kind of decision that shows you trust yourself to grow now, not "someday."
