This week on the podcast I am joined by Noelle Cordeaux!
Noelle is a life coach and the co-founder of JRNI. On this episode, we talk about Noelle’s journey becoming a life coach, why she decided to create a life coaching business to train other people, why life coaching is an important part of the wellness industry and how it can help yoga teachers (both personally and professionally), as well as business lessons she’s learned through creating her business!
Enjoy!
Discussed in this episode:
- Noelle’s background and journey to becoming a life coach
- How an experience with depression and relationship struggles led Noelle to applied positive psychology
- Noelle’s learning journey from exploring life coaching, to university degrees, to founding a company
- A brief overview of life coaching and what Noelle and her company JRNI focus their work on
- How does life coaching integrate with health and wellness and what opportunities exist for yoga professionals to incorporate life coaching into their offerings
- Why the disease-focused medical system overlooks and doesn’t support overall well being in the way that more holistic specialties can
- Thinking of therapy as an incredibly valuable service to help on the journey from anguish to a more neutral state and life coaching as a means to support going from a neutral state to flourishing
- How the brain chemical dopamine impacts our daily screen-time
- What are the most important business lessons that Noelle has learned along the way:
- It is easy to think that the only way to work as a coach is to create an online business, but thinking about how you can offer your services in person in your region is a great and often less competitive way to start
- Checking in with gyms, wellness spas, university campus’, wellness clinics, and other health and wellness business to see if they are interested in adding life coaching services for their clients
- The process of growing from an in-person business into an online business
- How do we balance the potential of using online tools for growing our businesses with our own personalities and what is best for us individually when it comes to using social media
- Why the skills that you’ve learned as a yoga teacher could provide a great foundation for the skills needed as a life coach

There are a lot of great tools for building websites like WordPress, Wix, and Squarespace. Then you need a way to email your students. Again there are tools for that like mail chimp and constant contact. But that’s another account to pay for and a password to remember. Then you need a way to schedule and register your students. Again there are tools for that, but it’s another account to create and pay for and another password to remember. Oh wait, how do I integrate my scheduling tool with my website… Arghhhh!
