Soul-based Coaching 

Your Life, Radically Resourced.

Soul-based Coaching offers science-backed, deeply embodied transformation that doesn’t just promise results – it delivers them.

No matter if you’re seeking growth for yourself, your clients or to be the catalyst for change in the world around you, this approach ignites lasting change from the inside out: your unique way of being that resonates from your core, propelling you towards a life of purpose, clarity, and vast potential.

Are you ready to become radically resourced?

Our 17th cohort starts on November 27th!

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. Still, after five years of this being my livelihood, I am so happy, it couldn’t have been more perfect.

Paloma White, Coach

The World is Hungry For Depth, Connection, and Soul-Based Change.

Think of a time when you trusted your intuition so profoundly, that you could feel in your bones what was needed – and you fully trusted that you could…

That makes you unstoppable.

What if you could help clients make the changes that they long for like that?

When you help them with the inner (re)alignment that is required – (re)alignment of blocks, patterns, old programming and the desires to change – and help them access and embody all the resources that their system needs.

You know what happens then. They become unstoppable too.

This is what a Soul-based Coach does for their clients.

Soul-based Coaching

Soul-based Coaching is a proven, innovative approach that integrates ancient wisdom and advanced tools that are backed by neuroscience, as well as 20 years of experience with thousands of our clients & students.

It is an intuitive, systemic and embodied approach that offers what is deeply needed right now by so many clients, equipping YOU to guide them through a deep evolution.

Your clients will create profound change in their lives, careers, and relationships, with a solid foundation to meet the ongoing shifts in our world.

The magic and results of this work have never been more essential.

‘Invoke Your Client’s Magic’ is the one-year Soul-based Coach Certification program created for both experienced coaches, therapists & healers – and for those starting their coaching journey.

This is your invitation to contribute even more to the collective healing and growth of our world.

The most effective method I have 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. I have been assisting others in transformational work for over 30 years and this is the most effective method I have ever experienced.

KamalaDevi, Therapist and Life Coach 

Invoke Your Client’s Magic

With a 95% completion rate among students over the past 8 years, our success with this certification program is simple. The tools and wisdom you will learn in the program not only help your clients, they also keep you engaged and wanting to learn more.

You will get to master the essential and in-depth skills needed to guide your clients through lasting soul-guided transitions, bringing together the rational, the emotional, the intuitive, and the mystery, 

find your way of belonging in a lively coaching community that celebrates diversity and is based on inclusivity, respect, and accountability,

and build an impactful coaching practice your clients will not forget (and will want to tell others about).

The program is thoughtfully designed to meet you where you are in your professional evolution. It supports you to either enrich your existing skill set as a coach or therapist – or to undertake the new path as a professional coach.

This isn’t just for your clients, you will also go on an in-depth personal development journey that surprises even our most experienced and conscious participants.

You become more YOU than ever before.

This absolutely ticks the boxes for me

It ticks the boxes in terms of where I am on the inside, and how I want to connect with others on the outside. Thank you Annemiek and team for this absolutely amazing training. It has given me an opportunity to blend the skills that I’ve learned over 30 years as a social worker with new skills that give another layer of satisfaction for my soul.

What Invoke Your Client’s Magic brings participants:

The rapid pace of change in my life since starting Invoke has been extraordinary..

“Until this course, I always thought I wasn’t ready wasn’t good enough, wasn’t qualified. And all of that stripped away because of the type of approach and skills and tools that we use. And the clients, they are blown away…”

– Liz Goulder

Is this just one more certification? No, this is the big one.

“I now have a solid tool to work with people a tool that I trust… It’s really worth it, the time, the investment. And if everybody could touch it and feel it and experience it. I just think we would be in a much better place.”

– Valérie Marechal

Invoke is so much more than a training..

“When I look back how I related to myself a year ago, it was narrow. Now there is blooming and flourishing, and life has become so much more joyful for me. I think it’s one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life to jump in and stop dreaming about working as a coach and make it a reality.”

– Judith Peters

It was the answer to a deep longing..

“As a clinical psychologist I longed for a way to work 1:1 that felt more holistic and more connected to this feminine way that I work in now. The work has been changing myself, I see real results with clients, even in one session and I’m super grateful for the business model that is part of invoke.”

– Laura Gasparrini

As a Soul-based coach, you can BE

the change you want to see

in the coaching world (and beyond)

With this program, you help shift the constraints of the current coaching paradigm from one of ‘power-over’ and clients placing authority outside of themselves to one of …

EMPOWERMENT,

PRESENCE,

& LASTING INTENTIONAL CHANGE.

By prioritising embodiment, soul connection, and the integration of science and mystery, you consistently guide your clients toward the changes they seek.

  • Undo the ‘power-over’ paradigm and bring a new standard of coaching that prioritises well-being and generates better results.
  • Make presence and Holding Space your unshakeable foundation, setting the stage for inner shifts to unfold naturally for your clients.
  • Embrace embodiment and soul connection as the key drivers of change, learning to trust that lasting results will follow inevitably.
  • Integrate leading-edge neuroscience with the profound wisdom of the Mystery, activating all sources of power in service of your clients.
  • Master the art of evoking Restorative Embodied Self Awareness, the proven pathway to sustainable transformation.
  • Witness the ripple effect of your clients’ soul-led changes, knowing that your work contributes to the healing and evolution of our collective world.
  • Release the need to “do” for your clients. Instead, empower and guide them to create changes that align with their higher purpose.

The missing piece to make my life and work so much easier

I immediately felt this was the missing piece. I truly believe in the strength and knowledge in each of us, if you tap into this great source, magic happens. It brought changes in me as a person and in my work as a coach. It helps me to really listen, to trust the process and it makes my work and life so much easier.

Audrey Claes, Social worker & Coach

The origin of Soul-based Coaching

Soul-based Coaching stands on the shoulders of giants.

“For over twenty years, I have been on a quest of how to support change for clients. Real, lasting change, aligned with their Soul’s integrity.

Many coaching methodologies fail: mainstream and alternative ones. They trample over our clients’ own deep knowing and do not offer sustainable results.

With Clean Language (by David Grove) & Systemic Modelling (by Penny Tompkins & James Lawley), I found a major key to achieving robust, powerful results.

But there was still a missing piece…

Through ongoing auto-immune problems, my Priestess-self became very clear: spirituality is not optional.

And then, everything clicked into place. Soul-based Coaching was born.

No dogma, but an invitation for clients to bring to the table what their heart, soul, body & mind are longing for. And let Shakti, the creative life force that runs through them, take the lead. And we’ve seen deep, lasting, practical changes for 1000s of clients since.

Now is the time.

Do you feel the ground shifting beneath us?

Things around us are changing.

The world is evolving—social dynamics, environmental challenges, and personal awakenings.

It’s time to act. Let’s change lives together!

I’m already living the dream! Invoke gave me the clarity I was looking for. I can offer my clients an amazing package, and I am fully booked.”

Jenny Schoenmann, yoga teacher & coach

Program Overview

Over the course of one year, we deeply dive into the content and skills you need to coach clients confidently, which include the following topics:

Holding Space

  • Deepen into the practice of holding space, the foundation for any change work and continue to strengthen your neurological pathways for simultaneous attuned awareness.
  • Consistently open the field of Embodied Self Awareness for yourself and your clients, the neurobiological pathway to healing and growth.
  • Become comfortable with not knowing and learn to trust the client’s innate wisdom and capacity for healing, unhooking from the expert paradigm, entering a midwifing paradigm instead.
  • Expand your ability to hold space for neurodiversity and work with what is true for individual clients rather than with generic models.
  • Create sacred space for healing and transformation
  • Understand the impact of privilege and social justice in your coaching work.
  • Experience and use the power of presencing and yin healing

Invoking Magic

  • Unlock what neuroscience recognises as the most powerful vessel for change: embodied metaphor, access your client’s deepest knowing and directly activate your client’s innate capacity for healing and change.
  • Master the art of Clean Language and Symbolic Modeling, a versatile skill set that helps you to always know what to do in sessions to support your client’s system into aligned change.
  • Help clients find the fuel for lasting transformation – no more dragging, pushing, or pulling, and stop doing the work for your clients.
  • Enable higher-order change by working with patterns from a systemic lens.
  • Take your clients from ‘talking about’ their experiences to lasting embodied transformation happening in real time during your sessions.
  • Explore and understand trauma-informed coaching practices: understand how trauma can impact clients and how you can safely support healing, knowing what to pay attention to and when to refer to specialized trauma-focused therapists.

    Embedding transformation

    • Understand the nature and power of Soul-based change, a deeply rooted experience that includes and transcends the power of the mind to make change happen. Think of it as change fuelled by ALL that we are as humans.
    • Anchor and embed the transformations that happen for your clients, creating a ripple effect in their lives. This is where they go beyond just insights or new perspectives into actual changed experiences and behaviours that are sustainable over time.
    • Guide your client to directly interact with the field of life force energy to help them manifest their desired outcomes in a tangible, self-directed way.
    • Experience Soul-based Coaching as a client to deepen your own growth
    • And of course you will start to work with clients, taking your skills into the world and being of service in the way that you want to be.

    Business

    • Engage in the flight hours you need to refine your Soul-based Coaching skills and feel confident in your ability to be of value to all your clients and future clients.
    • Receive weekly personal feedback from the trainers on your coaching in the training sessions, and on your practice sessions, to enhance your growth as a coach.
    • Explore the ethics of Soul-based Coaching
    • Start building your coaching practice. Learn to attract and enrol soul-aligned clients
    • Have the opportunity to take the certification exam and become a Certified Soul-based Coach.
    • Understand the practical aspects of building a thriving coaching business
    • Feedback on your client sessions

    After 12 months, you have learned the skills & tools to support soul-based transformation. You can invite the soul-based knowing of your clients in, and ride that wave through to the completion of their desired transformation. And you will spend time integrating and deepening your ability to apply all that you have learned. 

    When you are ready you can take the certification exam. For the exam, you hand in your coaching log, a recorded client session, a reflection report and take a knowledge test about the skills you now master. When you pass the exam, you are a certified Soul-based Coach. To keep your skills up-to-date, we really recommend that you participate yearly in a supervision circle to help you continue to develop.

    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!!

    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!

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is Soul-based Coaching?

    Soul-based Coaching helps clients access their deepest (soul-)knowing, and use their innate capacity to heal and growth to make the changes they long for. It ensures that coaches, don’t interrupt or interfere with this powerful process. Soul-based Coaching is supported by the latests insights in neuroscience (A. Blake, Prof Fogel ao), rooted in Clean Language (developed by David Grove), Symbolic Modelling (developed by Penny Tompkins & James Lawley), Yin & Sat Nam Rasayan healing (Klara Adalena) and presencing.

    Is the Soul-based Coach Certification Program trauma informed?

    Yes, it is, because understanding trauma is important to understand where your responsibility lies, and what the potential for change is for clients within the context of coaching, depending on how the effects of (severe or less severe) trauma plays out in their lives. You will learn what trauma is, how to recognise what is happening for your clients, how to work with this and when to refer with care.

    The core modalities in Soul-based Coaching stem are robust across settings and contexts and originate from the field of trauma therapy.

    Does the program teach an embodied approach to change?

    Soul-based Coaching works through our client’s embodied metaphor. We can say a lot about these metaphors, for example that they have been proven to be essential for lastig changes in behaviour. They hold and give access to deep body & soul wisdom, as well as help access painful memories and experiences stored in our system. But what utterly fascinates us, even after 20 years of doing this work, is that these embodied metaphors also give clients access to their own, innate capacity for healing and change. We get to watch the self-healing abilities in action in every session. So yes, the Soul-based Coaching modality is an embodied approach to lasting change.

    Can I become a professional coach online?

    After offering live-online coach training  for seven years, I can wholeheartedly say: Yes, you can! Of course, using an online platform to connect with each other is different from connecting in a physical room together. But even in Zoom, you can have deeply connective, nourishing and inspiring sessions. Break-out rooms provide ample opportunity to practice in groups of 2 or 3, with us dipping in to observe and offer personal feedback. Together with the opportunities in our course platform and Facebook to connect, you have a multi-facetted learning environment, with a lot of personal feedback and every opportunity to share your questions. And from an energetic perspective: every session, we start by doing a short meditation together. This helps us to ground ourselves in our bodies, and makes the rest of our learning sessions a refreshing experience. People that might think it hard to connect online at first, create deep friendships over time in the course. Yes, you can learn to become a professional coach in this program, even when it is online.

    Does online coaching work?

    From years of experience, both as a coach and being coached, I can only say: Yes. Online coaching offers incredible opportunities for growth, healing and transformation. Especially when we are entering the realm of personal embodied metaphors, as we do in Soul-based Coaching. They offer the portal into soul-based knowing, and they also hold the key for the transformation process to not just involve the mind. We activate the whole body/mind/soul system. We open up a psychoactive landscape for our client, where the transformation is happening in real-time. It means that where the client and you physically are becomes a lot less relevant.

    What if I am trained to be a coach, psychotherapist or other healing professional - will I still get value out of the program?

    This program will offer you a very different way of working with transformation. If you are not a Clean Language Foundation Level Facilitator, it will bring great value to you (and if you are, check with us, because there is a wealth of information and skills we add to the process).

    Because of the specific way we work, having experience as a professional coach or healer will likely open up very interesting areas for self-reflection. Soul-based Coaching has a nice way of reflecting back to us our preferences and pitfalls. It will deepen your understanding of your current practices, as well as open up wide new horizons and possibilities. If you are called, then this is for you. 

    What if I am not a coach, healer or therapist (yet)?

    Then you are in the right place! Taking part in Invoke Your Client’s Magic will offer you all the skills and tools to start doing the work, and help clients live the life they came here for. Join us, and you will not only become a trained coach, but we will also help you start building your business.

    Can I mix and match what I learn in the course with other healing or coaching skills?

    The short answer is: yes, you can. The skills you will learn allow you to easily tap into soul-based knowing. There are many ways to combine this with other ways of working. For example, I blend it with my yin healing sessions, using Soul-based Coaching techniques for the very start and ending of a session.

    When you want to guide soul-based transformation, and use all of the power available, you will probably want to stick to the toolbox and skill-set you learn. This is why I do all my coaching sessions in this way. It just opens possibilities that you otherwise don’t get to. And of course, you can experiment and I am sure out of that even more beauty will emerge: your personal brand of magic.

    How long is the program?

    We start with 10 months of weekly live sessions, including monthly integration time. You will learn the skills and content by diving in deep. After that, you have time to integrate what you have learned further, as we move to bi-weekly live sessions, as you build up your coaching log, working with practice clients.

    If you want, you can join an additional supervision group during this time to get even more personal feedback. And you can share all your experiences and questions in our dedicated online platform.

    When you are ready, you can start the certification process. It is recommended you do this within a year of starting the program. And of course we have breaks for holidays spread out throughout year.

    When is the weekly live training session in my time-zone?

    Weekly live study pod sessions with your dedicated trainer are on:

    • Wednesdays at 7 pm CET (Europe) for 90 min

    • Please check your time zone here to make sure you can join us.

    What if I can't make the weekly live training session?

    Technology willing, all training sessions are recorded and it’s no problem at all to miss a session. That being said, the live sessions are vital to learning to master the skills. Coaching is not something you learn from reading a book, or watching something. You learn this by doing it and receiving quality feedback. So if you can’t ever attend the live sessions, you would get a lot less value out of the program. If you really want to take part, but timing is a big issue, contact me to see if we can work out a personal arrangement.

    What do I need to participate?

    To be able to make the most out of the program, you’ll need:

    • a computer, tablet or laptop with a webcam/camera. A head-set can be useful, to minimise distractions for each other.
    • Watch the weekly course videos and read the corresponding parts of the manual. Whenever possible, attend the weekly calls,
    • Wednesdays at 7 pm CET (please check your time zone here, to make sure you can join us.)
    • Have a 1 hour, weekly practice session with two peers

    The time involved will vary, but count on a minimum of 4 hours a week, and an average of 4 – 8 hours a week.

    How does certification work?

    The certification follows a rigorous process where you show what you have learned to do. It includes an online test for a vital part of the theory, a written reflection on topics provided, a coaching log of sessions done and a recorded session. The assessment is done both within the Academy, and by external assessors, who check our client’s quality by the international Clean Language standards. If a student does not pass certification, there is the opportunity to retake certification after doing the suggested work for development.

    If you want to know why we choose to no longer be ICF accredited, read the reasons for that here. In short: The way the ICF accreditation process is designed does not recognise where change comes from, takes away power that we want our clients to have, and is not successful in quality control. 

    This is why we choose another, time-tested, solid framework of observable behaviour that does honour where change comes from, and leaves clients in their full power. 

    Because it is vitally important for a coach training to have an objective, relevant and skills-based process for certification in place. One that isn’t just decided on and assessed by the insiders of that organisation – that would be like a butcher testing their own meat, as we say in Dutch.

    Sorry for the harsh analogy, but food safety matters – and so does coaching safety.

    Does the program support neurodiverse learning styles?

    Invoke is set up to support a wide variety of learning styles. Our core content is delivered on-demand on video and in our manual (which is available in audio-version too).

    The live sessions are online, in person with captions available on request. Our certification process has a dyslexia friendly track. And the program has regular integration weeks, where you have the spaciousness to let the learning settle.

    We’ve had multiple and very varied neurodiverse participants over the years share how happy they were to feel welcome and catered for, when this was something that was not something they were used to.

    If you want to make sure your learning needs are met, know that we are open to explore with you what that could look like within this powerful container.

    What are the personal requirements to join Invoke?

    The most important one is that you feel a “YES!!!!” in your body. You know if this is for you. If your mind has questions, let’s look at them together in an exploration call. We know this can be a big step to take <3

    Other than that, the most important ones are that you have the time and willingness to dive in. 

    This is a deeply personal journey, and we can promise you that you will be meeting your edges. It will not always be comfortable to learn to be in the ‘not knowing’, but it will be thoroughly nourishing.

    Important to note is that this training encompasses a substantial amount of personal work, both in the role as coach and while being coached by your peers.

    If you are currently not finding yourself in an overall resourceful place mentally or emotionally, and it is hindering your ability to go through life, then this may not be the best time for you to enrol. 

    At the same time, people riding the waves of big transformations in their life’s journey can benefit immensely from the powerful container Invoke offers.

    If you have any questions about whether this is the right time for you, but feel a strong call to join, please contact us for an exploration call

    What is the difference between the Soul-based Coaching program and the VIP packages?

    The program as it is offers you everything you need to become a certified Soul-based Coach and offer life changing transformations to your clients. You learn how to tap into the magic of soul-based wisdom, and guide any transformation to it’s completion. You won’t have to wonder about how to serve a client anymore, because you have the structure and tools in place that always show the way. You can help your clients to fully benefit from the incredible power that their Shakti intelligence brings. Nothing else needed. It will also help you to start building your Soul-based Coaching business.

    The VIP Package adds the possibility to build a very solid footing to stand on. It will offer you the unique chance to be coached by our outstanding trainers or by Annemiek, on a topic or topics related to building your business, building your skills and confidence, or anything that is alive for you personally. It will give you great results and an amazing opportunity to experience the full power of our work together. On top of that, it offers 4 personal supervision sessions, where we look at your client work, and focus on deepening your abilities further to serve your clients. And additionally, you get 4 personal certification check-ins where we look at how your certification process is unfolding, and what needs to happen for you to get to where you want to be: a Certified Soul-based Coach.

    All personal coaching, supervision and certification support sessions must be booked within 12 months of starting the program. If you have the resources for a VIP Package, this is the best way to prepare yourself.

    What Invoke Your Client’s Magic brought others:

    Radically different from when I started

    One of the things I appreciate about this training is how it’s transferred into my regular life. It isn’t just a coaching tool. It’s about how I’m showing up in all aspects of my life. And I just feel radically, radically different from when I started.

    I can show up just the way I am. And share my gifts. I feel free. I feel whole. There’s this inner stillness and an undercurrent of joy of just being alive and not always pointing towards something else. I’m just here.

    And there’s such freedom in not having to have the answers for someone else. And I know that this coaching works… It feels like such a gift to have this work find me.

    Laura Lasater

    I now feel relaxed and refreshed after sessions!

    I have noticed so many changes in myself since I started the program. I really enjoy coaching and guiding people. I often feel relaxed and refreshed after finishing a session – which is an amazing change from how I used to feel after doing therapy sessions!

    – Steph Diepering, therapist

    Magic can happen, at anytime, for everyone

    Participating has given me the opportunity to reconnect with the knowledge and power that reside in me. It has strengthened my intuition and my confidence, by showing me that there is still so much more to learn, always. Finally, it has taught me that, yes, magic can happen, at any time, for anyone. And participating in its unfolding with eyes wide open is the best feeling in the world!

    – Rosanne Sluzias, Coach

    I’m not responsible to fix anyone 

    When you hold space and trust the Soul-based Coaching process then shift just happens. And on a personal level, it’s been massive. It has opened me up to what’s possible. The biggest example was the 10 minutes Annemiek did with me at the end of a session, and then 2 days later I left my job!

    -Maria Jordan

    I always felt I needed to chop off my mystical parts

    I was asking myself what would REALLY REALLY and uncompromisingly be my coaching school of choice Because I was always in education where I felt like I needed to chop off my more mystic parts. That function way outside of our culture’s ‘normal’. Here it’s the opposite. That’s where all the work comes from

    – Claire Idan-sun

    You have no idea how powerful it was.

    Just finished a soul based coaching session. You have no idea how powerful it was. So revealing. I am feeling all humble and calm and grateful and the first thing I wanted to do was to write and say thanks. You gave me something that is so powerful that also made everything so clear for me.

    – Linzi, NLP-Coach

    This is the best decision I’ve made

    I don’t even know where to begin with what I’ve learned. My life has been flipped upside down. A whole new level of living life that I LOVE and that syncs with my values.

    – Lisa Jara, Coach
