Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son who enjoys coaching and mentoring others, there are a variety of meaningful and personal gift ideas that can align with his interests and hobbies. Here are a few suggestions to consider:

1. Personalized coaching notebook:
A customized notebook or journal specifically designed for coaching and mentorship can be a thoughtful gift. Consider having his name embossed on the cover or inserting an inspiring quote related to coaching inside. This will not only serve as a functional tool, but also reinforce his passion for helping others achieve their goals.

2. Coaching and mentoring books:
There are plenty of books available on coaching and mentorship that can provide valuable insights and strategies. Look for bestsellers or highly recommended books within the field, such as "The Coaching Habit" by Michael Bungay Stanier or "The Mentor's Guide" by Lois J. Zachary. You can also consider gifting him a subscription to a mentoring or coaching magazine to keep him updated with the latest trends and practices.

3. Personal development workshop or course:
Investing in your son's personal and professional growth, you could sign him up for a coaching or mentoring workshop or an online course. This will allow him to enhance his coaching skills, learn new techniques, and connect with like-minded individuals in his field. Websites like Udemy or Coursera offer a wide range of course options with various price points and specializations.

4. Networking opportunities:
Help him expand his professional network by gifting him a membership to a coaching or mentoring association or a ticket to a coaching conference. These events provide an excellent platform for him to connect with experienced professionals, exchange ideas, and gain insights from industry leaders. Additionally, networking opportunities can potentially lead to mentoring or coaching opportunities for him as well.

5. Coaching tools and resources:
Consider providing your son with coaching tools that can be helpful in his sessions with clients. Examples include coaching cards, coaching assessment tools, or even a subscription to a coaching software platform. By equipping him with these resources, you are not only supporting his coaching endeavors but also demonstrating your understanding and enthusiasm for his passion.

6. Personalized coaching session:
Arrange for a session with a renowned coach or mentor who specializes in your son's area of interest. This personalized coaching experience will allow him to gain valuable insights and guidance from an expert in the field. It could be a one-time session or a series of sessions, depending on your budget and his needs.

Remember, the most important thing is to show your support and appreciation for his passion in coaching and mentoring. By selecting a gift that aligns with his interests, you are not only celebrating his enthusiasm but also encouraging him to continue making a positive impact on the lives of others.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
