It is often situated in the context of analyzing oppressive systemic forcesusing the cyclic process of critical reflection, critical motivation, and critical action. Critical reflection is defined as the process of individuals analyzing their reality andsocial inequities (e.g., economic, racial/ethnic, and gender inequities) that constrain well-beingand human agency.

In particular, the agencyframework posits that professional capital (such as that can be developed in a group coachingsetting) can broaden an individual's awareness of possible actions to reach their goals [13].Consequently, a group coaching model was implemented to equip EIFs with the necessary toolsto lead educational change at their HSI. Coaching, often misinterpreted as other forms ofprofessional development such as mentoring or consultation, is a unique practice that avoidsadvice-giving strategies and encourages a client to seek solutions within themselves [14], [15].This coaching model was designed to encourage reflective practice, broaden their community(thereby
