“I have been assisting others in transformational work for over 30 years and this is the most effective method I have ever experienced. The beauty and ease of accessing the client’s inner wisdom and facilitating that unfolding, is like riding the edge of a wave. There is a deep honouring and integrity to this process that is so powerful and useful in every area of my life.” 

– Kamala, Therapist and Life Coach

I loved everything about my training

The content and presentation were excellent. Professional AND playful. Deep and comprehensive. I have learned so much of what it means to accompany someone in finding their own soul-knowing. It is always there. And whatever it is, it is just right. Learning to trust that and letting that be enough – that’s quite a wild ride actually! If we trust the starting point, we might be surprised about where we end up. That’s the magic

Meet Annemiek van Helsdingen, founder of the Academy

“Years ago, I was a high-level corporate coach and coach trainer. In the process after I burned out, I felt my life essence dissolved like sand running through my fingers. Knowing that in the eyes of the world I was an undisputed failure, I realised that we needed a very different approach to help people heal and become all that they are.

I am overjoyed with what has happened since: In our community, we have Soul-based Coaches and Coaches-in-training in over 25 countries. Their lives have changed deeply, they feel fully at home in who they are AND have comprehensive coaching skills. And many, many happy clients.

Together we keep building the world that we want to live in, including everyone using zero waste detergent, equal pay worldwide, no more wars, discrimination and exclusion, a liveable planet for us all and empty squished energy drinks in the bins where they belong. Because if not us – then who?”

The Certification training far exceeded my expectations.

I wanted coaching skills and started to look at the ICF trainings. And then I found Invoke and I knew this was it. The robustness of the method, the quality of the materials, the personal touch from the trainers, the community, the way it challenges me to let go of my inner perfectionist and step into not knowing. Even after five years, I am so happy, it couldn’t have been more perfect.

Deep change and healing can also happen online

I wanted the same magic that happens when I work with a woman physically, to happen online. And now, it totally does! I can create a professional safe space and intimacy online. I do not have to be in the same room with people. To have the option to do either… wow, that provides me with so much freedom and new exciting opportunities! So thank you, I’m so grateful!!

“Soul-based Coaching helps us access the inner wisdom we possess and activates the health and wholeness we yearn for. As a culture, we look to people in positions of authority to tell us what we need and how to get it instead of accessing and trusting our own inner knowing. We each have our own unique path, gifts and wisdom. No one can make the journey for us. Soul-based coaching helps us step more fully into our own lives and become more confident and free.”
