Here is everything you need to know about integrative life coaching:
What is an Integrative life coach?
An integrative life coach is someone who not only helps you identify and achieve your goals, but they are someone who generally uses other modalities such as counseling or healing to address many other areas of your life so that they can support you in transforming your whole being.
What does an Integrative life coach do?
Your coach is going to examine every aspect of your entire life including your emotions, beliefs, nutrition, thoughts, and daily habits to gain insight on all aspects of how you live your life. Through this assessment they are able to ascertain certain things about you that will allow them to dissect and understand why you may be following a specific type of behavioral pattern that may not be serving you.
Through the coaching process, they will:
- Provide you a safe place to examine your thoughts, beliefs, and actions
- Address any old wounds or traumatic experiences that may be causing you pain
- Help you discover who you are and what you want from life
- Inspire you to overcome certain fears that may be holding you back
- Give you feedback on how you can make certain improvements to move your life forward
- Motivate you towards taking massive action so you can breakthrough plateaus
- Help you boost your self-esteem and build more confidence
- Provide you insights and new perspectives on issues that may have been holding you back
- Support you in making dramatic change in all areas of your life

- Lack confidence or are suffering from low self-esteem
- Having a hard time with your health or have a poor body image
- Not experiencing the type of joy or happiness in your life you know you deserve
- Lost and confused and are not sure what to do with your life
- Having a difficult time making decisions and feel stuck

How to find an Integrative life coach

Integrative Life Coach Reviews
Sara is awesome. She offers you great information and has a heart to help you on your journey to getting healthy and feeling good. Thanks so much Sara for all your help. I can’t wait to start using all the information you gave me tonight.
Candice is smart, authentic, powerful & magical. I first met her at a support group for those with chronic illness and she was our host. I was so grateful she had put something like that together back then and grateful to connect! Shortly after I was chosen at random to be one of her * practice* clients. It was not only an empowering experience that built my confidence and hope, but literally assisted me to energetically change the world around me and my life by helping to strengthen my own innate gifts, talents and inner healer. Candice is not for the * so-so’s*or the * maybes* of wanting a change, this woman offers serious catalysts so be ready and willing!!
Thank you Jacqui for a fantastic coaching session! When I first met Jacqui, her calm energy instantly put me at ease. I appreciated her flexibility to coach me on what was calling my heart most and keep the questions coming for deeper insight. As a fellow coach myself, I appreciated most her ability to serve and explore my unique truth, and not what she thought I should do. The way you hold space, prod further, and provide support to be me is so genuine. Thank you!
As I nutritionist myself I believe in the power of nutrition and lifestyle for optimal health. Holistic Health and Wellness with Lynne Wadsworth has helped me in areas beyond my own training as Lynne uses her own experiences and her experience working with others to really own this area of expertise. I even refer my own clients to her at times especially when it comes to migraine management. I highly recommend Lynne for her professionalism, her empathy and of course her knowledge.
Danielle is the best!! She is so inspiring and motivating! I absolutely love watching her workout videos and hearing all the great info she provides on her live feeds. You can tell that she genuinely loves what she does and really cares about everyone. Keep up the awesome work you’re doing!!!
My cousin introduced Candice and I almost two years ago due to our similar experiences with Lyme Disease. I was drawn to her positivity, her knowledge of Lyme, Chronic Illness, and advocating for yourself while healing. As time passed, she became not only a mentor to me, but a true and dear friend. When she started talking about launching Embody Wellness Coaching, I knew I had to partake. Candice is not only an extremely knowledgeable and caring individual, but she is driven by a deep desire to teach those of us who want to learn the skills she has acquired over her years of managing her chronic illness.
To be honest, this was my first experience with a coaching program, and it blew me away. The depth of knowledge, the practical application, and her gentle but firm leadership has been beyond amazing. I have learned so many things throughout the months of her course. I have learned what and how to eat for my body (and I thought I had that already figured out!). I have learned how to harness the language of abundance and change my language to promote and increase my health and well-being. I have learned how to be angry, disappointed, and frustrated with my experience with chronic illness without being dragged down into the depths of depression and resentment. I have learned so much more than I can even begin to write about, and as I continue to review the materials and lessons repeatedly, I will continue to pick up and apply nuances of these lessons to my life. My learning and application of the knowledge she has given me has only just begun, and I eagerly look forward to continuing to grow and learn and heal.
