Perhaps you are feeling that you have skills and insights that are under used in your current role and you yearn for more meaning. 

Maybe you already have a beautiful heart led offering to the world that could be supported by additional skills and experience.

Whatever it is that is calling, there is an answer waiting for you simply to say yes.  Training to be a life coach with the Beautiful You Coaching Academy was a genuine life changing decision for me and one that I have gained so much more from than a qualification.

At almost 40, I had all but convinced myself that it was too late to change the course of my life and that I should simply be grateful for what I had and get on with it.  On the surface, my life looked great - a good job, a loving relationship, comfortable lifestyle and my health.  But somewhere inside, underneath all the surface shine there was a voice that said "you are made for more than this."

​

The voice persisted and I let myself be open to the possibility that there was something more out there for me.  I became curious about the direction my thoughts and feelings were leading me and let fate and fortune have more of a hand in my decisions.  Gently and slowly, my intuition awoke and took the lead. If my brain did not know what I wanted, my heart certainly did!

​

Allowing myself to be open to this intuition also let me be open to signs from the universe that something beautiful was about to unfold.  My corporate 9-5 life was not really who I was on the inside. I had gifts that were being wasted and I had a thirst for knowledge that was beyond books and TV.

​

A beautiful crumb trail began to lay itself out for me.  An Instagram post here, a podcast episode there, a blog post that sang out to my heart in ways I could not quite understand but I knew was important.  All of these little signs and nudges led me step by step to discovering the Beautiful You Coaching Academy (BYCA).  My decision to train with them was certainly heart led and  even though it felt like a big commitment and investment - I knew from the moment my training pack arrived, I had made the right choice, and I have never looked back.  From completing my training, it was a natural and step to complete and gain my accreditation, and from there I am now also proud to be a Beautiful You Coaching Course Affiliate.  Here is why: 

Ethos. The team behind BYCA are heart led with a business ethos that is full of integrity and soul. From the moment I signed up and ongoing now, there is phenomenal support not only in becoming and being a coach, but also in building a business and my own personal development too. Julie and the other trainers do really walk their talk and have been mentors and teachers for me not only in the field of coaching but also exploring Social Justice, Spirituality and have influenced my personal and business development decisions.

​

Quality Course Content. The course content is fully comprehensive and International Coaching Federation (ICF) approved.  I was amazed when the materials arrived shipped from Australia - a manual bursting full of content plus a beautiful workbook to accompany it, and some delightful gifts too!  Each module built on the one before and were presented in an easy to understand way.  There are also regular coaching calls with the trainers to deep dive into the content and the opportunity to ask questions.  The bow on this already generous package was the abundance of bonus interviews, tools, example calls, scripts and templates that I still refer to now in my ongoing practice.

​

Community. I loved that my whole class had a private Facebook group to come together and grow together.  The group is still going now, even though we all graduated last year and I have also enjoyed several meet ups with other BYCA coaches.  This is not just a course - it is a community and I have made incredible, valued friendships from this experience that enriched not only the training experience but my life too. You will also have the opportunity to be matched to a coaching buddy to have someone to be by your side on your training journey to practice and benefit from each others coaching.
