"This program condensed all of the best tools I’ve come across in coaching and personal growth"
After her software engineering contract ended, Amy seized the opportunity to pursue her decades-long dream of life coaching. The CLC program gave her the confidence and tools to build a coaching practice focused on transforming tech workplace culture with more connection and well-being.
Before the Mindvalley CLC program, I had a software engineering contract that ended. Life coaching was something I’ve wanted to do for literally decades - personal growth has been such a key part of my life and upbringing. It was as if The Universe opened a door and urged me to go through, honoring my purpose and inviting me to step into a career of passion. That’s when Mindvalley’s CLC program found me - it was divine timing!
Before my decade working in software, I was a professional musician. Disheartened by the music industry in the US, and accepting that I had expensive taste in a vast array of sports and hobbies, I chose software. It was creative and it paid the bills, but it lacked heart. The reason I enrolled in this course was to finally give myself the gift of a career with passion and purpose - it turns out the two CAN coexist!
Not only does this program condensed all of the best tools I’ve come across in the coaching and personal growth space, it’s given me a whole new set of tools I didn’t even know existed. Also worth mentioning, is the global community that's on this platform is extraordinary - I feel so connected to such amazing and inspiring people from around the globe!
Here are some of the areas of my life that I’ve seen the biggest change:
Confidence - the deep full body knowing that I have what it takes to be an empowering coach and fierce catalyst for positive change.
Outstanding resources - the support that Ajit, Vishen, and his team created is unmatched, and I feel confident that I can be successful by applying the resources they've given me and leaning on the supportive community they've helped bring together.
Unity - as Coach Jason lovingly put it, we’re all just a bunch of weirdos, and I feel honored to be supported by so many other weirdos with just as beautiful visions for the world. We don’t have to go at this alone when we’ve got each other!
I know this is just the beginning, and I can’t wait to see what unfolds for me as I continue to grow my coaching practice, focusing on transforming the tech sector's workplace culture and encouraging more connection, well-being, creativity, and adventure. I'm feeling all aglow with joy, excitement, and "enthusiasm" and can’t thank Coach Jason, Coach Dorian, Coach Celia, Ajit, Vishen, and the October 2023 cohort enough - now let’s go out there and change the world!!!
