The Self-led Coach

What happens when you integrate IFS with great coaching?

The result transcends transformation.

Until you’ve experienced IFS for yourself, it’s hard to imagine the difference it makes. The goal of the IFS model is Self-leadership. Using IFS, coaches become “Self-led”- they lead their lives and support their clients from who they really are - their true, authentic Selves. And that energy is powerful. It’s called Self-energy and it is contagious. Self-leadership ENERGIZES coaching - it awakens clarity and compassion in the coach because it embraces whatever the client brings -

Their self-sabotage, their procrastination, their resistance, their fears and worries, their anxiety, their challenges, their caution, their self-defeat and discouragment, their confusion, and their distractions.

Whatever the client brings, the Self-led coach has room for it. The Self-led coach embraces the client - actually meets them where they are - and helps them understand themselves in ways that they never had. Does the Self-led coach have superpowers? YES! Because they are coaching from Self.

Designed for Experienced Coaches

This program is built for coaches who:

  • Already have a strong foundation and years of experience

  • Want to integrate IFS into their coaching practice

  • Work with clients who sometimes stay stuck despite good coaching

  • Are ready to elevate their impact and effectiveness

  • Prefer an approach rooted in curiosity, clarity, and compassion

By the end of this program, you’ll have:

  • A fresh perspective on what keeps clients from moving forward

  • Practical tools to work with patterns that block change

  • More confidence in handling the coaching moments that used to feel heavy

  • New ways to see yourself and your clients — with more clarity and compassion

  • An approach that works when traditional coaching isn’t enough

This isn’t about replacing the way you coach — it’s about expanding it. You’ll leave with a deeper sense of mastery and a new set of tools to support your clients where they need it most.

Even Great Coaches Get Stuck With Their Clients Sometimes

You already know how to coach. You’ve honed your craft, built your skills, and helped countless clients make meaningful changes. But every coach - no matter how experienced - hits moments where the work stalls.

Your clients come to you because they want something different in their lives, but sometimes even the best tools and strategies aren’t enough. They get blocked. They circle the same patterns. And despite your best efforts, the breakthroughs don’t happen.

These aren’t failures. They’re signs that something deeper is going on beneath the surface — and that’s where IFS comes in.

When Coaching Hits a Wall

The Internal Family Systems (IFS) model opens a new door when coaching reaches its limits. Instead of trying to push clients past resistance, you learn how to meet what’s underneath it — the protective patterns, unspoken fears, and younger parts of your clients that are quietly driving behavior.

IFS gives you:

  • A new lens for understanding your clients when they feel stuck

  • Practical tools to help loosen patterns that keep them looping

  • A way to help clients access their own untapped resources

  • More ease and clarity in your coaching conversations

When you integrate IFS into your practice, the “hard stuff” starts to feel lighter — for you and for your clients.
