MPL celebrates quantum sciences on the Day of Light

Experiments, quantum physics and curious minds: Together with the #DeutschesMuseumNürnberg, we celebrated the #DayOfLight and #IYQ2025 at Erlangen’s Hugenottenplatz and our institute.
 
A big thank you goes out to everyone who made the day possible – and of course to all those who visited us. Your curiosity and enthusiasm truly made the day special!

It's International Day of Light (#DayOfLight) so this quote seemed appropriate for #QuoteOfTheDay:
"There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it." (Edith Wharton)

How does this quote relate to how you think about your coaching?
What sort of things do you observe when a client has recognised their own light?
Have you ever experienced the impact of being a "mirror" that reflects light to others? How did it feel?
