Dreams are powerful! Dreams provide drive, direction, and purpose. They can even be life-changing.
Healthy IU realizes pursing your dreams can sometimes be daunting, especially when life is happening all around you. It takes an enormous amount of courage to not only dream, but to take action and pursue your dreams. The Dream BIG! program is designed to assist IU staff and faculty with realizing and attaining their dreams through individual and group coaching support.
The Dream BIG! 6-month coaching program is tailored for Indiana University staff and faculty who want ongoing support and accountability while pursuing personal or professional dreams. The program emphasizes structured support, community, and practical tools to help participants stay focused and resilient.
Key features include:
"No one ever asked me what I want, I was always the giver as a mother, daughter, wife, friend, employee, etc. My dream coach has a wonderful way of asking me open ended questions that engages me to think and express what is important to me that I not have fully recognized about myself. And I realized it is only from that place of truth, that I can create anything if it is reflective of my values."
“I would not have signed up for graduate school without the Dream BIG! program to inspire me.”
