Once trainees have completed their coach training certification, new coaches can:

• Sign up for our Blue Lotus monthly membership to receive ongoing training and mentorship as well as practice opportunities with coaching and teaching workshops. The alumni membership acts as a board of coaches to lean on for support, guidance, and accountability in perfecting their overall practice and method.
• Sign up for our Mentorship 12-week Workshop run by Elaine Whitt and other senior coaches (coming Fall 2024). 
• Integrate the training into their personal and professional lives to improve themselves, their communication, relational, supporter, and executive skills, and their ability to set up an ethical and successful practice as a coach. 
• Offer to do more for their current employer, or apply for new roles and get a promotion. Coaches apply to work at new jobs and find any number of ways to elevate their careers with their new knowledge, skills, and abilities. 
• Apply to coach with Being True To You and/or other companies who hire contract coaches. We have different pods of different coaches.
• Apply to work directly with retreats or clinics to either offer their integration coaching, or to work on-site as admin, supporters, sitters, and many will even move into or further develop their role as an administrator or facilitator.
• Start their own business offering a service and/or product to a target audience in need of something they can help with. There are many steps to starting one’s own business, we offer the Becoming a Coach Business Training, a 12-week course that can begin right after certification. 

Our coach training is for all types of professional helpers and coaches working with many different audiences. You will always have the option to choose your clientele and you can position yourself to work with client demographics and circumstances that you are most specialized in. You will not have to work with any particular clientele that you do not want to or that you do not feel called or equipped to support.

In the training we talk about how the nature of addiction affects all of humanity. Everyone has attachments, habits, obsessions, control patterns, and tendencies to outsource their problems and solutions to the external world. This phenomenon does not stop at substance addiction.
It touches the lives of everyone. So whether you are working with addicts directly or not, your clients will have addictions and all kinds of attachments they need to face and let go of to reach their goals. You can’t wholeheartedly coach someone without acknowledging this phenomenon.

Our training will help you look at this condition in a different light so that it comes out of the shadow and you are able to help people through a deeper, more complete transformation. 

• Our coach training stands independent of any other institution or program. We have built our program from the bottom up, listening to what people need and don’t need, and learning through trial and error, and working with over 10,000 clients. This training does not come from the University, it does not come from textbooks, or other third parties, it does not come from scientific research, it comes from direct experience.
• We are not beholden to any organization, but we do honor and respect our regional and federal laws as well as our conscience and moral compass. No licensing board or legislature is controlling what coaches can talk about or how much coaches can help people, despite some institutions aiming to control the field of coaching. We are accountable to ourselves and responsible to the public, but not connected to any coaching federations. That is not necessary to coach people or make a living coaching people. 
• We do not intend to unite with these overarching coaching companies that initially started in the ’90s or so. Their history was built on financial planning, goal setting, and personal development and has branched into many sectors. Our transformational coaching program is very different, more holistic, and multidimensional, and cannot be compared to ordinary life coaching. We are setting a whole new standard and level for “transformational and integration” coaches not just for coaching but for helping professionals at large.
