Coach-idence
1:1 Somatic mentoring for coaches & healers to build confidence, decisiveness & sustainability into their practices
Dear Healer, we need you.
You are a light in a world that is so dark for so many so much of the time.
We can’t have you burning out. Not only because it’s not fair to you and you deserve better, but also because your work is so very needed.
But, being a young industry, coaching doesn’t have much institutional training or protection to help you set up your practice to avoid burnout or the destructive effects of vicarious trauma.
And if you have no way to release the pain you hold for others… Well, that is an impossibly heavy burden to carry.
How Not To Lose Yourself To The Work
Luckily, there are tools to protect you from absorbing your clients’ trauma. There are ways to protect your energy. There are ways to stay centered and grounded in your truth - even if you’re an empath exposed to the pains & desires of so many others.
There are simple, body-based tools that you can incorporate in between sessions in under a minute. I’m here to teach them to you.
And when you feel like you’ve lost the thread of connection to yourself and can’t tell where you end and your clients begin… I’m here to help you find your way back to yourself.
And if you feel like it’s too much and you’re being pulled in too many directions, I’m here to support you in making the decision that is right for you, even if others don’t understand.
What’s Coach-idence Coaching?
-
Support for Coaches from a Coach
Our work is so very needed. We can’t have you so exhausted and run down that you quit your life’s work before you have the opportunity to help all the people you want to help.
That’s why it’s so important to me to equip coaches and healers with the somatic & mindfulness tools that prevent burnout and vicarious trauma.
During our time together, you’ll learn micro-practices that you can do in under a minute or two that empower you to:
🌸 Release your clients’ trauma from your body so you don’t have to carry it home with you
🌸 Recognize & honor your boundaries
🌸 Take exquisite care of yourself no matter how busy you get
🌸 Respond rather than react at work and in your personal life -
🌸Coaches
🌸 Massage Therapists
🌸 Bodyworkers
🌸 Energy Healers
I want everyone whose mission it is to bring healing and solace to the world to also receive healing & solace for themselves.

Hi, I’m Lauren 🌸
Hi, I’m Lauren- but my nickname is the “Body Lorax.” Like Dr. Seuss’s Lorax speaks for the trees, I speak for the bodies.
Because, unfortunately, in this fast-paced, Capitalist, numbed-out society, most of us have been trained from birth to disconnect from our body’s innate wisdom. I’m here to bring you and your body back together into loving alignment.
I bring my decades in the mental health field, 10+ years as a board-certified dance/movement therapist, my 20+ years as a dancer & performer, 7+ years as a coach, and my lived experience as someone who has struggled with disordered eating to our work together.
I want you to know you don’t have to punish or deprive your body in order to do your best work as a coach or healer. Actually, it’s the opposite. I’m here to help you discover the path back to yourself in the way that is the most aligned, authentic, and pleasurable for you.
You Deserve Coach-idence!
When we work together 1:1, I tailor your experience to you.
In fact, you get to dictate what we focus on each session. And if you don’t know what you want- we’ll focus on getting connected to your desires!
You won’t just be following a one-size-fits-all curriculum: each session is customized to your needs, addressing your struggles, and getting what you want out of the session.
There are two ways you can work with me 1:1 to build your coach-idence.

Client Love

“I'm so grateful for this information and for Lauren's expertise! This has helped me understand the mechanisms of burnout better so I can spot warnings before they're a big problem. And I'm learning vocabulary and techniques that are helping me better define my movement coaching work! Finally, the movement practices are delightfully structured. Even when I'm in overwhelm mode, it's easy to bust out a Brain Dance and get my body feeling more like myself again. Thank you, Lauren!"

FYI
-
The focus of Coach-idence Somatic Mentoring is to help you develop personal coping skills. We’ll work together to identify and advocate boundaries that will protect your personal well-being while you do your important work.
As we strengthen your connection to your body and yourself, it will become much easier for you to identify the clients, scope of work, and career moves that are in alignment with your goals, values, & desires.
However, client acquisition, marketing strategies, pricing, etc. are things better sorted through with a business coach or consultant.
-
Disordered eating behaviors are a common maladaptive coping mechanism for healers struggling with vicarious trauma and burnout. This is definitely something I can help you address.
However, please note that my goal is to help you build a loving relationship with your body without having to change your body.
While I am happy to help you process your feelings about diet, fitness for weight loss, & medical interventions- these are not my personal approaches to healing.
-
Please note that Coach-idence is not an appropriate treatment for emergencies, acute mental health crises, or severe eating disorders.
