This Isn’t Just A Coach Training Program — It’s A Life Changing Experience

I knew when I signed up for this course that I was wanting to help others. What I didn't fully realize at the outset was that I was also committing to growth within myself.  This program has given me the structure, tools and science to bring about positive change in the lives of others.  It has also brought about positive change in my own life and thinking, as I applied what I learned in my own life.  Each week, another layer is added onto the foundation of the science and field of coaching. This program also provides a community in which you learn, providing support, understanding, and encouragement.  I am so grateful for the Lumia community, both within the cohort and in the alumni group. I am so grateful to our teachers and to John and Noelle for creating this space.  I am so grateful that I said 'yes' and for this opportunity in my life.

Lumia Coaching was worth far more than what I paid for. It is truly an investment in yourself first and a future business second. The best thing about this particular course is that when you complete it, you are ready to open up shop. They have given you all the tools you need to start a thriving practice. The level of support from your fellow cohorts is astonishing and the interior support from Lumia is phenomenal. They truly want you to have the best experience and are committed to helping you build a foundation for a lasting practice and personal growth. Lumia is a company that is always adjusting, listening to feedback, and putting your education first. In a sea of quick courses and weekend certifications that are available on the Internet, Lumia Coaching stands high above and puts you in the best position for future success.

Ever since the moment I started with Lumia, I knew that this was the space where I would feel constantly supported in my growth to becoming a life coach. I wanted Lumia to help better equip me with evidence-based strategies, and I can definitely say my toolbox is packed! Each coach has a different personality in their teaching style and in their passion for their craft. It was so refreshing to be in a group with individuals who think and care for others just as much as you do.

When I found Lumia, I was a crossroads in life's journey. I was in the technology industry for over 15 years and I was downsized from a major company. I was a software analyst and I realized that the rat race was starting to wear on me. So, I wanted to find another path. I decided to search for my purpose and I found Lumia. The experience has been transformative and enlightening. I hope to make this my life's purpose and I'm glad I made the decision to become a life coach. I am not [yet] exactly where I want to be right now, but I feel that I'm on the right track.

I left my executive corporate HR Leadership role in 2021. I decided to launch what had been my "side gig" of coaching and consulting as a full time endeavor. I chose Lumia because of the people. From John Kim and Noelle Cordeaux (who lead with authenticity), to each and every one of the people I have met, everyone is there to support your growth. I went from no coaching engagements to reengaging with former clients, getting referrals and attracting new clients since joining Lumia.

Despite having experience working in the mental health field and being well versed in a clinical therapeutic practice, Lumia provided the missing pieces of the puzzle. While my clinical therapeutic background provided me with the tools to help people heal, being a catalyst has supplemented my tool box to help people grow.  On a personal level, having gone through the course as provided me with an opportunity to learn a better way to love, live and perceive the world.
