What Soul Activation Certified Coaches Create for their Clients

1) Overcome Subconscious Programming and Change Our Habits

We often operate on auto-pilot based on the conditions we absorbed as young children when our brains were primarily in a theta-wave state. But this doesn't mean you're stuck in your conditions. You can change. Learn where these automatic behavioral responses come from and how to create new habits. Guide your clients to do the same.

Coaching Tools:

Unfiltering through Questions

Values Identification

2) Release Trapped Emotions and Reconnect to Your Spirit

When we aren't able to handle or express emotions in the moment, our body holds onto them. The dilemma is they often remain inside of us unresolved, easily triggering us to react intensely without us realizing why. Learn to release these emotions in yourself and guide your clients to do so for themselves without having to retrigger the memories that created them.

Coaching Tools:

Emotional Release Process

Tapping / EFT

Anxiety Freedom Technique

3) Get out of Egoic Indecision and Make Soul-Led Decisions

Our egoic mind is designed to analyze, not to decide. So when we use it to try to make a decision, it spins us into a swirl of second-guessing. Learn to guide yourself and your clients into soul-led decisions by getting out of the head, and into intuition's truth so you make decisions aligned with what you really want and who you truly are.

Coaching Tools:

4-Box Technique for Intuitively Deciding

Soulversation (Decision-Focused)

4) Stop Self Sabotage, Release the Inner Judger, and Take Aligned Action

When we aren't doing what we want or keep doing what we wish we'd stop, it's a sign that we're operating from an egoic need. We don't need to shame ourselves for this or feel like we're battling our own inner critique. Instead, learn how our values drive behaviors and how to coach yourself and your clients to fulfill those values with self connection.

Coaching Tools:

Soul Activation Framework

Values Fulfillment Coaching

5) Get Unstuck, Release the Victim, and Connect to Your Purpose

Being stuck is a sign of inner conflict. It can make us lash out at others or collapse inward on ourselves. When escalated, it becomes a Dark Night of the Soul (when we're releasing our old identity and have not yet met our new one). The Certification will teach you to help yourself and your clients tap back into themselves and their purpose.

Coaching Tools:

Parts Integration

Soulversation (Purpose-Focused)

Details on the Curriculum

Foundation: What it Means to be a Coach

  • Coaching is an unregulated industry, which means many coaches have different philosophies about the purpose of coaching and the principles that guide it. In this module, you'll get clear on what soul connected coaching is and the philosophy behind it.

  • We are not simply minds or an accumulation of our thoughts. We are spiritual beings, each with an inner knowing, an eternal soul within. This Certification teaches you to connect to that soul and to help your clients connect to theirs. This module teaches you the principles behind this approach.

  • Coaching is a unique relationship. Learn to bring soul into coaching as you hold space with a spiritually-based approach that allows you to create deep psychological safety so that your clients can be comfortable being vulnerable and open to coaching support.

  • Without role clarity, you and your client can be confused at who does what. Left unchecked, and it can lead to hesitancy, mistrust, and lackluster results. Get clear on your role vs. your clients' role and separate your responsibility in driving transformation from their part in the journey. This will help you coach powerfully without burning out.

  • Coaching and therapy have overlap, but there are times in which therapy is more suited to support your clients' needs. Learn to identify the signs for when to refer your clients to therapy. Get specific resources to help you have this conversation with your client.

Getting Started:

  • Learn techniques to set up energetic boundaries as well as to set yourself up for clean, soul-based coaching. This will allow you to meet your clients without getting attached to results. It will help you stay out of the emotional drag that can come from ungrounded coaching so that you can clearly coach for maximum impact.

  • To help clients get the most from working with you, it helps to give them a sense of structure. Learn how to create structure and set up effective psychological contracts so that you and your client are on the same page about the purpose, intention, and goals of coaching together.

  • The first session sets the stage for your entire coaching relationship. Know how to create a trusting working dynamic right from the get go and how to communicate clearly so your clients feel heard, seen, valued, and supported. This is the precursor to trust and allows for vulnerability.

  • Being a coach requires more than just listening. It also requires being able to set your own perspective and emotional reactivity aside so that you can effectively hold space for your client. Learn to stay centered and what to do if emotions arise within you. Know how to take the "mess" clients bring to sessions and use it to create awareness, insight, and understanding with your client.

How to Coach: Mindset, Values & Ego-Soul Dynamics

  • The Soul Activation Framework is the foundation of soul-connected coaching. We'll introduce it by teaching you how our external reality interacts with our internal reality. We'll cover the role of subconscious filtering, thoughts, feelings, behaviors, values, ego, and soul. Learn how these components interact with each other to create your life and state of being.

  • Effective coaching requires you meet your client where they are at. Learn to use curiosity, empathy, fascination, and discovery to guide your coaching with nonjudgmental direction. This shows you your clients' lens. When you uncover it, you can then help them to see it, too - and to realize it is just a lens and not absolute truth. This awareness create space for change.

  • Understand the 6 fundamental values driving all our behavior at both the ego and soul levels. This will teach you to get to the core of what your clients are experiencing. No surface-level thought coaching here. We go deep to get to the root cause. Which is not thoughts - but values.

  • Now it's time to help our clients change. This means showing them new ways to be and new identities they can embrace if desired. This is not through force or manipulation. It is through unfiltering coaching questions, which you'll learn to do during the Certification.

How to Coach: Emotions & Body Work

  • Learn to use a specific process for helping your clients let go of past emotions. Understand how to adapt the process to full coaching sessions vs. in-the-moment emotional release support. Get a script to guide you through each and to tailor to your own coaching style, niche, and preferences.

  • Use the body to release emotions. Learn somatic practices as well as Tapping / EFT to help your clients let go of what they've been holding onto without retriggering memories.

  • Learn the process of letting go of anxiety and guide your clients to do the same. The Anxiety Freedom Technique can be used to help clients calm down sleep anxiety, release speaking nerves, get out of catastrophizing, and more.

  • Clients often hold back their own self confidence for fear of being rejected, dismissed, or abandoned. Teach your clients the 4-Box Self Confidence Model and they'll see how they can bring grounded humility into their self confidence and use self confidence to create connection, belonging and support.

How to Coach: Soul & Subconscious Work

  • Learn to use a specific process for helping your clients connect to and speak from their soul (that inner wisdom within). Learn to adapt it to full sessions as well as in-the-moment uses to quickly tap into the client's soul as the client desires and is ready. Get a script to guide you through each and to tailor to your own coaching style, niche, and preferences.

  • Learn how to identify when the inner child is speaking vs. the soul. Get guidance on how to create the space for inner child healing as your client feels safe and desires to do so.

  • Use NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) principles to help your client re-align varying internal characters. Help clients create a sense of wholeness when feeling split about themselves and/or what they're wanting. Get a guiding script and process to walk them through integrating the various roles they're playing and to feel at one with themselves - even the shadow side.

How to Coach: Deciding & Taking Action

  • The egoic mind can takeover the decision-making process and make it nearly impossible to decide. Learn the 4-Box Model for Decision-Making, which teaches you to combine intuition with strategic deciding so that you can get clear on what you want and how to help your ego support you along the way.

  • Coach your client's ego to game plan how to fulfill the soul's desires (without triggering the ego into fear-based stagnation). This is how you help your clients create ego-soul alignment so that they can move forward, acting on their intuitive flow and guided by egoic strategy.

Wrapping Up: How to End a Coaching engagement

  • The last session with your client is an opportunity to reflect, debrief, and discuss continuing to work together. Get specific strategies for how to have this conversation in a way that leaves your client set up to continue forward, with or without you.

  • Re-up is when a client chooses to continue working with you in a coaching capacity after the initial coaching package has ended. It is a great opportunity to deepen the transformations, coach on new topics, and help the client continue on their journey. Learn ways to package this re-up as a win-win for you and your client. No sleazy sales. Only soul-led selling that is supportive to you and your client.

Optional Curriculum:

Available to help you, but not required to certify as a Soul Activation Coach

  • Create a coaching package that aligns with your desires and what you're wanting to provide to your clients. Learn to structure it in a way that flows and is based on adult learning theory.

  • A narrow niche is not required, but can be helpful. Through coaching together, clarify the niche you want to work with and how you're uniquely qualified to support them.

  • Learn to write web copy and market your package from a place that is soul-aligned. No fear-based tactics and no flashy, hollow gimmicks.

  • Selling can be about connecting. Learn how to create clients through selling with integrity. This means being authentically you. It takes the focus away from selling and makes it about true transformation, support, and consultation.
