Intention. Curiosity. Flow. (ICF): Masterful Coaching Questions That Transform Conversations

Intention. Curiosity. Flow. (ICF)™ is a practical, research-grounded guide for coaches who want their coaching to move beyond technique and into true presence. Written by Sophia Casey, MCC — Founder and CEO of ICLI RISING, an accredited coach training and leadership institute — this book walks through all eight of the 2025 ICF Core Competencies, competency by competency, with the specific coaching questions, reflections, and practice structures that bring each one to life in a real session.
Organized into four clear parts — Foundation, Co-Creating the Relationship, Communicating Effectively, and Cultivating Learning and Growth — the book gives ACC, PCC, and MCC-track coaches a single reference they can return to before every session: how to hold ethical practice, embody a coaching mindset, establish agreements, cultivate trust and safety, maintain presence, listen actively, evoke awareness, and facilitate client growth without taking over the client's thinking.
Inside, you'll find:

  • A quick-reference map of all 2025 ICF Core Competencies, in one place. • Competency-by-competency coaching questions you can use in your very next session.

  • "From the Research" callouts connecting the questions to coaching and reflective-practice theory.

  • A foreword by Dr. Candice Cox, LCSW, therapist, educator, and creator of the KHAOS Mindset.

  • Reflection prompts to help you notice your own default patterns as a coach.

A print-friendly companion to daily coaching practice — keep it on your desk between sessions, in your coach-training program bag, or on the shelf next to your mentor-coaching notes.
