Enacting Presence Through Archetypal Coaching
International journal of presencing leadership & coaching. June 26, 2026 Alba Carod
Archetypes are reframed as field-mediated phenomena emerging within embodied presencing, not as internal subpersonalities. Drawing on Gunnlaugson's gesture of letting be and recent research on archetypal coaching, the article proposes that archetypes arise as dynamic field intelligences. Through the quality of presence co-enacted in the coaching relationship and the gesture of letting be, archetypes become active collaborators in co-sensing, co-creating, and co-evolving. They support coherent, intentional action grounded in sourced wholeness rather than habitual patterns. The article integrates active imagination, presencing ontology, and coaching practice within the Dynamic Presencing Coaching framework.
