The Embodied Coach EmC I
EmC I closes the gap between where you are and where you want to be. This certification is for you to do work on you and is the starting point for all of our coaches.
Do you feel less vitality or contentment than you want in your life?
Are you looking for more meaningful relationships in your life?
Is the effort you’re putting towards your business not bringing you the clients or financial gains you wanted?
Journey inward to discover your authentic power through embodied self-coaching. Cultivate deep self-awareness to access your natural confidence, fierce self-compassion, and courage as you learn to trust and follow your internal compass.
Embodiment, self awareness and full participation are the way through these challenges.
The keys to your success and fulfillment lie not in practical information, but in your willingness to trust your internal compass as a guide.
We believe you are looking for what lives within;
Confidence, Compassion, and Courage.
The Embodied Coach Pillars
The Embodied Coach Practices
Embodiment
is the experience of physical and emotional sensations felt in the body. We are going to teach you to shift your awareness from the thoughts in your head to the feelings in your body where you will access wisdom, intuition, and strength.
Personal Practices
are consistent and committed efforts to move toward oneself regularly. We must do our personal work to practice what we preach and show up authentically. A Personal Practice is a reminder of our value, our power and our possibility.
Courageous Conversations
are the ones that require preparation, stamina, and recovery. You will land the ability to navigate important conversations by showing up as your best self, sharing with clarity and returning to a hard conversation that didn’t go well.
Personal Responsibility
is the recognition that you are always part of the equation. Your capacity to humbly own your contributions, mistakes and shortcomings allow you to request what you need as well as try on feedback that is crucial to your success in life.
Intentionality
brings awareness, intention, and compassion to everything we do. With our eyes up, we break old patterns of auto-pilot to see the world with fresh eyes at this moment. This allows us to drop our mode of performance and bring our authentic selves to life.
You Don’t Need To Be The Expert
of anyone beyond yourself. Trusting that the person across from you already has the answers they need living within themselves invites you to be available as a co-pilot without trying to control or fix unnecessarily.
Self Compassion
delivers everything we promised ourselves with self-improvement. This practice reminds us to value the person suffering, regardless of the situation. Self improvement can beat us down while compassion moves us forward to a place of peace and ease.
Engagement & Participation
are the cornerstones of a life full of vitality. Embodied coaches know that most people are waiting on the sidelines. A willingness to speak up, show up, and engage vulnerably makes for a connected and empowered life, personally and professionally.
Beginning Again
is the generosity we give ourselves to start over and as many times as we need. We don’t need to get lost wasting time in the details, we just want the permission to begin again. This practice allows a humbleness and momentum as we re-start when we’ve stalled.
A Commitment To Vulnerability
reminds us that without it, there is no connection to ourselves or others. Risking and exposing parts of our humanity are key components to the dissolution of shame and to the experience of thriving. We remember that we can’t be protected and connected.
The Embodied Coach Pathways
We believe in the value of participating in-person and our programming will always reflect that. We also recognize that it is not a possibility for everyone to participate in-person, so we have created an equally powerful option to complete our coaching programs virtually.

We know the power of practice over perfection, of experience over concept, of embodiment over being lost in thought. Great coaches lead from their practices as a way of guiding themselves and the people around them.
Don’t Just Take Our Word For It…
“It gave me the strength to learn what it means to live my best life, to manifest what I want and walk away from what I didn’t. And to do it all with grace and ease.”
“I am now thriving more moments than not.”
“It was terrifying, exhilarating and really hard work. And, in the end, it was the greatest gift I could have given myself.”
“I'm not different, I am more the person I always wanted to be. The roadblocks are going away.”
“It has caused me to see possibilities in so many places that I hadn’t considered.”
