Where THE WALK has been held

One day. {{ placeCount }} rooms.

On 10 October 2026, World Mental Health Day, coaches trained by TimeCoach Academy held THE WALK in these cities at the same time. Each room walked the same twenty photographs and sat in its own circle. The next edition is {{ nextDateLong }}.

Every walk is held by a trained coach. Nothing is sold in the room, at any walk, ever.

What THE WALK is

THE WALK is a walk through photographs and questions, held in many cities at once, closed by a circle with a trained coach.

You enter a quiet exhibition alone. You move through the photographs, each paired with one open question, in silence. Then you sit in a small circle led by a trained coach and reflect together. At one shared moment, every circle holds the same minute of silence.

Why art and coaching, together

Art opens people in a way words alone cannot. Coaching helps them walk through the door it opens.

An open, non-literal photograph slips past our usual defenses. It lets something surface that a direct question never could, quietly and on the viewer's own terms.

A trained coach then turns that private opening into a conversation: asking rather than telling, and keeping the circle safe. No therapy and no lecture. Careful reflection, with other people.

What you walk through · 20 photographs, 20 questions

The walk, in four movements.

These are the twenty questions you meet, one beneath each photograph, as you move alone and in silence. The coach explains nothing. They protect the quiet and let the pictures do the work.

Every month

The tenth.

THE WALK is also a monthly practice. On the tenth of every month, at 18:30 local time, cities open a room, hang ten images, and sit in a circle. It is the same practice at a scale one volunteer can carry: ninety minutes, one host, one room.

Once a year the tenth falls in October, on World Mental Health Day. That is THE WALK Day: twenty images instead of ten, every city on the same date, and one shared minute of silence that circles the planet.

The theme is the same in every city, in every language, in the same month. Each month draws its images and questions from one movement of Unfinished Within. In October, the whole work is walked at once.

The Global Day · one shared day, worldwide

One day. Many clocks.

Because the world spans many time zones, one day means a shared 24-hour window. Each site opens in its own daylight, and one shared minute of silence joins them, so a participant in one country knows that at that moment people elsewhere are sitting with the same questions.

TimeCoach AcademyWho's behind it · under TimeCoach Academy

A worldwide team, delivering as one.

THE WALK runs under TimeCoach Academy, an ICF-accredited coach training school, and was founded and is curated by Iman Abrishamchi.

Iman is an ICF Master Certified Coach and PCC Credentialing Assessor, with the ICF mentor-coaching specialisation at all three credential levels and an EMCC European Individual Accreditation. He holds a DBA and an MBA and has worked with leaders and coaches in Spain, Iran, Kuwait, Qatar, China, Kenya, Canada and Poland over fifteen-plus years. He founded TimeCoach Academy and the Institute for Human and Artificial Work, and advises organisations on people and culture. His TEDx talk is called “Time Management Is Life Management”.

Every coach commits to the same facilitation, safety and documentation, and adapts language, space and pace to their own community. That is what turns many separate events into one programme.

  • — Protect the silence; never interpret the images.
  • — Facilitate, never lecture; hold non-directive space.
  • — Consent first; psychological safety always.
  • — Document the day to one shared global standard.

The Work

A single global body of work.

Twenty photographs make up Unfinished Within, the work at the centre of every walk. Shown here: six of them. Documentary photography from each city joins the portfolio after the first walks.

Why this matters now

Three movements, meeting for the first time.
