The CHANGE Coach Model™ is an evidence-informed, practitioner-focused approach to coaching. It brings together current research in psychology, human behavior, change, and flourishing, and translates it into practical tools that can be used in real conversations with real people.

When we say the CHANGE Model™ is evidence-based, we mean it is grounded in credible research and designed for everyday application. It equips coaches, leaders, and helping professionals to support lasting change in individuals, teams, and organizations through a clear, compassionate, and practical coaching lens.

Is the CHANGE Coach Accelerator™ Program

A GOOD FIT FOR ME?

Having trained and certified thousands of people from dozens of countries, across industries, backgrounds, professions, and life experiences; we have seen what helps people create meaningful change in the lives of others.

At Certified Flourishing Coaching™, we know that transformational coaching skills are not only for professional coaches. They are for leaders, managers, HR professionals, helping professionals, employment coaches, tradespeople, faith leaders, and anyone who works with people regularly.

You may be wondering what it takes to become someone who can lead more meaningful conversations, support growth, and help others move forward with clarity and confidence.

Here is what we have noticed makes a truly impactful CHANGE Coach:

A GOOD LISTENER

One of the greatest myths about coaching is that the coach does most of the talking. In reality, meaningful coaching begins with listening.

Often, the greatest impact comes from being fully present, listening with intention, and helping someone see what they may not yet see for themselves.

Optimistic

Impactful leaders are able to see possibility, even when someone else feels stuck.

They meet people with empathy and respect for where they are today, while also helping them look beyond limiting beliefs, challenges, and old patterns.

Growth Mindset

Great coaches & leaders are reflective, intuitive, and committed to their own growth. They do not need to have every answer, they stay curious, keep learning, and help others develop a mindset that sees growth, possibility, and forward movement.

Educated

Your life and work experience have already given you valuable insight into people, challenges, and growth.

When you combine that experience with the evidence-based tools of the CHANGE COACH™ method, you gain a practical framework to guide meaningful conversations and help others move forward with clarity and confidence.
