What is Coaching like?

I bring together my influences, training, and experience to guide you through Soul Work—an inner and outer journey of transformation.

Soul Work has two parts.

  1. Inner Work: Transforming from within

    This is where we uncover what’s getting in the way, release stuck energy, and shift un-serving patterns.

    Through this deep inner work, you’ll:
    - Overcome self-sabotage and step into new ways of being
    - Navigate life with more meaning, creativity, and wisdom
    - Reconnect with your True Authentic Self—what some call the “Soul”

    Sessions often feel meditative, cathartic, and expansive—like a deep sigh of relief leading to clarity.

  2. Outer Work: Sharing your gifts

    As Khalil Gibran said, “Work is love made visible.”

    When you connect with your True Self, your work becomes an expression of that love—whether through art, business, or service.

    In these sessions, we focus on:
    - Courageously putting yourself out there
    - Brainstorming, strategy, and aligned action
    - Creating the structure, habits, & systems your work needs to thrive

    These sessions feel enlivening, energizing, and expansive.

The Journey

You have a calling—work that feels deeply aligned with your soul. But maybe you feel stuck in doubt, unclear on your next steps, or unsure how to bring your vision to life. This coaching journey is designed to help you move from hesitation to inspired action, from inner resistance to deep trust.

Trust Your Path. Love Your Work. Create Your Dreams.

This is the heart of our work together. Through deep coaching, you’ll uncover your true path, move beyond self-doubt, and bring your unique gifts into the world with trust and courage.

Step 1: Email Chat

Begin by submitting your coaching interest here. I’ll then follow up to learn more about why you’re seeking coaching. If it seems like a fit, we’ll set up a 30-minute call. No pressure, no commitment—just an open, honest space to discover what’s possible for us.

Step 2: A 3-6 Month Transformational Journey

If we move forward, you’ll embark on a six-month coaching container that includes twelve deep-dive sessions (60-75 min) and ongoing support through text and voice messaging.

Our work unfolds in three phases:

  • Phase 1: Uncover

    We start by bringing awareness to your fears, doubts, hopes, and dreams—the parts of you that say, “Who am I to do this?” “What will my family think?” “What if no one shows up to my thing?” Together, we’ll set a vision for the future and uncover the subconscious patterns that are keeping you stuck.

  • Phase 2: Unfold

    This is where transformation happens. Through deep coaching, old limitations will soften, and new ways of being will take shape. You’ll learn to take action, embrace uncertainty, and step into your full potential with trust and flow. I’ll guide you with a balance of deep presence, fierce compassion, and strategic mentorship.

  • Phase 3: Unleash

    With love and confidence, you’ll create, lead, and express your gifts. Whether launching your offerings, sharing your message, or simply showing up as the fullest version of yourself, this phase is about courageous action. You’ll build momentum, see real shifts in your life, and step fully into your soul’s work.

Step 3: Next Steps

By the end of our time together, you’ll have the confidence and momentum to step fully into your purpose. And if you want continued support, we’ll explore what feels aligned for your next chapter.

What clients say…

Real testimonials from real clients.

“I’m feeling more joy and energy than I’ve felt in a long time.”
Coaching with Lou was the best decision I ever made. I came to Lou at a point I was feeling stuck and full of fear. Lou’s helped me move through the fear. I found bravery I didn’t know I had. I’m feeling more joy and energy than I’ve felt in a long time. I started teaching something new and have been getting terrific feedback. I couldn’t recommend Lou highly enough.


Kate Mischon, Mindfulness Teacher mishcon-mindfulness.com

“Coaching has been so important in my growth and self-development.”
I never thought I’d be the person who needs a coach, but after listening to Lou on Insight Timer I decided to give it a try. Since then, I have done many things I never thought I would do. I have a podcast, I write poetry, and I have learned to allow myself to open up and explore. Lou has helped me move out of my comfort zone and be brave. I am so grateful.


Fungisai Gwanzura Ottemöller, Professor, Doula, & Podcast Host

Coaching has been one of the most liberating experiences of my life. I felt, for the first time, that I could change things and create my reality in the way my Soul is calling forth. Lou helped me take a huge leap from being a dancer and choreographer to setting up a coaching business teaching my method. I recommend this to those committed, knowing change is possible. 

Keren Rosenberg, Dancer & Body House Method Coach

“It’s not hyperbole to say that I am transformed” “It’s not hyperbole to say I am transformed by the experience and insight received from working with Lou. I will continually be understanding all that these three months of coaching brought as time goes on. I will without a doubt be feeling it and living it for the rest of my life.”

“Lou is the real deal.”


‘‘Lou has played a pivotal role in finding my direction, and connection with myself. Lou’s knack of getting to the heart of my needs in each session has become such a valuable part of my journey. He has the gift of clearing the fog of uncertainty. I recommend Lou to anyone who needs to find some direction, find their gifts and even fine tune the ones they already have. Lou is the real deal.”


Carlos Militante, Musician & Sound Healer

“I have more confidence and a renewed sense of meaning and purpose.”


‘‘I was going through my life task driven instead of fully experiencing my feelings, connecting with others and being present.  Through coaching with Lou, I was able to identify the underlying sources for my disconnection and use personal tools Lou helped me develop to bring me back to joy and presence.  I have more confidence and a renewed sense of meaning and purpose.  I highly recommend coaching with Lou, I am grateful for the results.”
