You Feel Called to Help Others Navigate Life’s Challenges

You’ve seen the weight of grief, stress, and uncertainty—whether in your own life or through those around you. You know how overwhelming it can be, and you want to do more than just offer words of encouragement. You want to provide real guidance, structure, and tools that help others build lasting well-being.


This certification gives you a clear, professional framework to support others in their wellness journey—ethically, effectively, and with confidence.

  • Prefer to mix and match multiple coaching styles rather than follow a proven framework

  • Want a self-paced, independent certification without mentorship or accountability

  • Are looking for a quick certification rather than a deep, structured training experience
