Get the Guidance and Skills You Need So You Can Do What You Do Best… Help Your Clients Achieve Their Goals!

PERSONAL GROWTH AND PRACTICAL SKILLS

If you want to help people change – in any capacity – you first must learn how to properly conduct a structured, progressive client session that takes your client from their problem (pain point) to their desired solution (intentional goal).

You’ve likely already tried to implement a healthy eating plan, design a fitness or strength-training program, or use motivational skills to create a mindset shift using the SMART goal-setting method as a guide.

However, you may have discovered that despite all your good intentions and strategies, your clients may not stick to their change plan and keep sabotaging themselves from reaching, or maintaining, their goals. WHY?

Your client might be trying very hard but seem genuinely perplexed why that can’t stick to it, or they may know they’re self-sabotaging but look to you to get unstuck. Or they may make great progress for a few weeks and then suddenly motivation falls away and it all gets too hard… (Why can’t I just do it?!)

It’s frustrating to invest so much time and energy into your clients only to get stuck yourself and not know how to move them beyond their inner barriers to change!

Here is the missing piece that most other training courses in the health, fitness and wellness arena don’t teach: Change happens in the mind. And not your conscious mind…

What you think, feel and do on a consistent daily basis becomes your patterned beliefs… And beliefs direct behaviours.

To create change in your life, you must identify the pattern of thinking that underlies why you’re doing what you’re doing, what you’re getting out of it (a need or secondary gain), and how to meet that need or feeling in a new supportive, and healthy way.

Whether you’re an existing coach, therapist or practitioner OR you have no prior training in working with clients, this course guides you through the foundational set of professional skills and evidence-based tools you NEED to truly help others.

"Words are not enough to express my gratitude for this amazing program! I’ve learned so much about myself in the process especially the areas within myself and my life that need more focus and healing. Some of the exercises brought up feelings I didn’t know I had! It was enlightening and invigorating. I absolutely wouldn’t change a thing and highly, HIGHLY recommend it to anyone considering a career in holistic life coaching. Thank you, Viki and MBF Team! "

BECOME A CONFIDENT COACH AND CHANGE-MAKER

There’s no doubt coaching is fast building traction as a popular career and personal development pathway. Coaching is a blend of various psychological approaches that include self-help, personal growth, behavioural psychology (CBT), neuroplasticity and neuro-linguistic programming (NLP).

Coaching isn’t about goal setting though. It’s about goal achieving. 

Professional coaching provides clarity, confidence and the ability to take what you ‘know’ and turn it into ‘action’. As a confident Coach, you get to help people create change where they simply can’t on their own by increasing their sense of self-efficacy.

As you move through this FOUNDATIONS program, you can immediately start applying these coaching methodologies, communicational skills, behavioural psychology, mindset & habit protocols, and practical assessment tools into your own life, career and relationships.

You will get clear about your own values and goals to deepen your personal growth and competency skills in practice, all while learning how to inspire change and empower others!

Our course is the product of over twenty years of study, research, and personal and professional experience presented in an easily accessible, absorbable and personally integrative way.

You get the information you need to know – without all the fluff – that you can immediately apply into the real world as an effective, empowering and confident Holistic Coach and Behaviour Change specialist. 

There is no other rewarding career quite like the feeling of inspiring and actualising change!

"The course is INCREDIBLE so far and I’m only on module 2! The best part is that I’m learning so much and deepening my knowledge and it is so interesting and fascinating to dive deeper into the holistic views of the being."

    "I have loved the course which has far exceeded my expectations! It doesn’t feel like work at all as it is so interesting and I look forward to each new module along with all the videos. I find Viki great to listen to, very knowledgeable and I am so impressed with her coaching skills. I have always been interested in the mind and how our thoughts affect our behaviour and ultimately the course of our life. This course brings so many of the teachings and information that I have read about in the last 30 years into one platform. The course has reinforced that coaching is what I want to do and I am excited (and nervous) about putting all the useful tools we have been learning into action.
    From a personal growth point of view, it has helped me clarify the areas in my life that need attention. I already knew in a semi-conscious way what needed to change but the course has helped me get crystal clear and be completely honest with myself on what needs attention and the steps I can take to improve them."

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Find the Answer to our Most Frequently Asked questions below…

    Details & Duration

    You can enrol at ANY time and join students from over 30+ different countries around the world! There are always students starting each week so you’ll always have people moving through at a similar pace to you.

    You’ll immediately receive your student login details upon confirmed enrolment, access to our private Facebook group, and all the previous coaching calls, masterclasses and webinars!

    The Holistic Life Coach Practitioner (level one) course is comprised of four theory modules, a competency assessment quiz, a competency workbook for integration + practical coaching sessions. It is designed to be completed within 8 weeks (including all theory, assessment workbook & competency quiz, + practical coaching requirements), however it is a self-paced structured program and that we provide a generous 6 months to complete.

    We focus on one module per week (PDF workbook and teaching webinar) to provide time to absorb the learning, integrate the practices, self-reflect and solidify the knowledge through application.

    We’ve left out unnecessary fluff and jargon so you are focused on learning the latest evidence-based behaviour change tools and strategies to become a fully trained, highly effective and competent holistic life coach practitioner.

    The practical coaching components require a minimum of 10 x 1 hour sessions of practice coaching with written feedback, client session notes, and one audio session submission with your final workbook assessment to demonstrate the core coaching competencies and experiential skills in practice.

    Each module includes in-depth teaching webinars that you can watch or listen to on the go, which are then available as replays inside our stylish online learning platform. While there is no final exam you will complete one carefully designed competency quiz to test your knowledge. 

    We host optional live group sessions to suit all timezones, and educational masterclasses with guest presenters in various professional fields, alongside personal support from the Institute coaches and teachers.

    Upon graduation you’ll receive a professional certificate with your official Certification, which will verify your professional qualification to relevant industry associations and accreditation boards internationally to become insured.

    Complimentary live calls are scheduled in Brisbane, Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) and rotate between morning and evening sessions to accommodate all time zones. Sessions are run fortnightly between February and November. 

    Please note, live calls are optional and NOT part of any core training. They are offered to enhance a connection to community and provide space for group discussions and sharing. Replays are added to our ever-growing Video Training Vaults.

    As someone interested in becoming a ‘Coach’, the word itself may not actually resonate with you. In many countries, coaching is still a relatively new term, so the word ‘Coach’ simply may not align with your niche area, your clientele, your community, or even your energy.

    But no-one says you have to call yourself a ‘coach’ when you’re qualified!

    ⇒ Training modules in PDF format to make studying easy and accessible anywhere, anytime. Modules are available weekly inside our user-friendly student platform.

    ⇒ In-depth teaching webinars for audio-visual learning to complement your written module PDFs and help you dive into the practicalities and strategies of real transformational coaching.

    ⇒ Access to live group training calls and practical coaching experience to build confidence and connect with fellow students.

    ⇒ You’ll also be invited to a 1:1 Zoom call with your Assessor after your competency workbook is assessed, in addition to virtual Admin and group support in our private community. At no stage are you going it alone.

    ⇒ Additional coaching resources, industry interviews, training masterclasses and holistic resources to deepen your awareness and further inspire change.

    • Each student must complete in full, one competency assessment workbook containing a variety of activities, self-enquiry questions, practical tasks and coaching exercises – there are no time-consuming research projects!

    • Each student must conduct a minimum of 10 x 1 hour minimum practical coaching sessions with completed client feedback forms and session notes (provided in your toolkit). Students can conduct coaching sessions with each other for accountability and support, but are also required to coach non-students.

    • Each student must submit one audio coaching session with their final workbook for practical skills feedback and core competency assessment.

    • Students are encouraged to attend as many live group coaching calls as possible to benefit from insightful observation and practical coaching instruction in a safe, supportive learning environment.

    We assess your competency based on demonstrated self-insight, self-reflection and written assessments, plus practical feedback, coaching observation, experience and core skills demonstration.

    You attain the core coaching competencies through a combination of in-depth theoretical training, practical experience and audio demonstration as you progress and complete the course with our mentoring to guide you.

    On successful completion you will receive a beautifully designed certificate to verify your accomplishment for professional recognition.

    Support & Assessment

    Absolutely! Our awesome team of passionate mentor coaches are here to help you succeed. However big or small the question, we’re here to give you the information and guidance you need, when you need it. We are all qualified industry professionals.

    You bet there is – we love questions and we’re here to help you learn! As online study can often feel overwhelming or isolating, we are consciously active and involved with our students so they know there’s help available whenever they need it. As long as you reach out when you need to, we will be here to support you as much as you need. There is oodles of support in our active private Facebook group too!

    No! Modules are made available in the platform every 7 days beginning the date you enrolled, thereby honouring our weekly schedule and ensuring students take their time to absorb, apply and integrate their insights and learning without rush. You are not expected to keep up with the weekly schedule as some modules are an invitation to stay awhile and allow for healing.

    We don’t want to overwhelm anyone so the module tasks are designed to help you feel like you’re also growing and stretching while you’re doing the work that you’ll expect your clients to do. We always focus on small steps, consistently.

    Your module tasks are much more practical than research based, so don’t worry about having to spend hours and hours reading and referencing! We’re more about the ‘doing and being’ so you can apply what you’re learning into ‘real life’.

    Competency-based certification courses with practical elements require demonstration of understanding and self-application within a specified learning window. If learning is not consistent, knowledge and skills will be diminished or lost and the student may struggle to effectively demonstrate skills to meet competency.

    It’s similar to how certain professions require continuing education every 1-2 years to stay relevant and knowledgeable within their field of practice. As coaching does not require CPD, the learning and application window must be contained for the best opportunity to retain information, utilise practical skills, and grow in confidence consistently.

    YES! In fact you’ll be trainee coaching clients from week four of the course and gaining direct practical experience with clients! You are encouraged to action your new skills and knowledge straight into sessions to grow your confidence and skills in practice – even before you feel ‘ready’!

    Practitioners have the knowledge on how to move the client forward in their modality of specialization and generally have existing protocols and methods (exercises, assessments) that specifically take their clients through a process to a resolution, constantly adjusting and personalizing along the way.
     
    A Coach works on the premise that the client already has the answers (client-centred), so they help awaken that information through effective communication skills, direct questioning, cultivating self-insight and the use of various exercises to address core beliefs and habitual behaviours. Coaches co-create action steps and assist the client to move beyond their current experience into an empowered and conscious life (solution-focused).
     
    There are many different types of Coaches, each with their own focused niche, who act as a sounding board, objective guide and facilitator of new thoughts, beliefs and behaviours for clients wanting to make change in their lives.
     
    So, although these ‘titles’ are similar, it depends on the setting, approach, method and objective.

    Yes! You will gain instant access to these invaluable resources:
