My Story

Who Is

Kelsi?

I am a Somatic Life Coach and Yoga Instructor from Seattle, Washington, passionate about supporting teenagers and adults in building a deeper, more trusting relationship with themselves.

My work is rooted in the belief that we all have an inner wisdom within us. Through somatic coaching & movement, poses (Asana), mindfulness, meditation (Dhyana), breathwork (Pranayama) journaling, and self-reflection.

I support people in reconnecting with their bodies, intuition, and overall wellbeing so they can create a life that feels aligned with who they truly are.

My own journey of self-discovery began in 2020, during my senior year of college, after the ending of a five-and-a-half-year relationship. At the time, I felt disconnected from myself, uncertain about my future, and struggled with self–confidence, self-worth, and understanding who I was beyond the expectations and identities the world and I had created for myself.

I was navigating a new season of life where I had to rediscover my independence, my passions, my dreams, and my relationship with myself. Although it was a challenging chapter, it became the beginning of one of the most transformative journeys of my life.

I started taking small steps toward caring for my wellbeing. I found yoga through Yoga with Adriene on YouTube, discovered meditation and self-love practices through Rochelle Fox’s programs, and began exploring journaling, mindfulness, and personal growth. These practices completely shifted the way I experienced myself and the world around me.

Through consistent practice, I began to create a relationship with myself rooted in compassion, awareness, and self-trust. I learned how to connect with my emotions, listen to my intuition, understand my patterns, and begin healing the parts of myself that felt disconnected or unseen.

I discovered that healing is not about becoming someone new—it is about coming back home to yourself.

After graduating from Washington State University with a degree in Psychology and a minor in Human Development, I wasn’t completely sure what career path I wanted to follow. A close friend encouraged me to explore life coaching, and something immediately resonated. Within the same week, I enrolled in a Health and Life Coaching certification program.

Through my coaching education, I continued my own personal growth journey while learning powerful tools to support others. I later completed additional life coaching training focused on beliefs, identity, and deeper self-exploration. These experiences helped me understand how our thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and experiences shape the way we see ourselves and move through the world.

I learned that many of the challenges I experienced—self-doubt, fear of rejection, feeling like I wasn’t enough, and feeling disconnected—were connected to deeper beliefs I carried about myself. Through awareness, compassion, and intentional practices, I was able to begin transforming those patterns.

This personal experience is one of the reasons I am so passionate about coaching. I understand what it feels like to feel disconnected from yourself, and I also know how powerful it can be to rebuild that connection.

Alongside my coaching background, I have practiced yoga for over five years and completed my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training in Thailand. I am also certified in Somatic Developmental Trauma Therapy, allowing me to integrate body-based healing, nervous system awareness, and compassionate self-inquiry into my work.

I create a safe and encouraging space where you can be seen, heard, understood, and empowered.

I am here to be a guide, a source of accountability, and your personal cheerleader as you navigate your own wellness and self-discovery journey.

Through our work together, we may explore:

• Somatic awareness and reconnecting with your body
• Building self-trust and confidence
• Understanding emotions and patterns
• Developing healthy habits

Whether you are an adult seeking deeper connection, clarity, and purpose, or a teenager learning to navigate life with greater confidence and self-awareness, I would love to support you.

Personal growth and self-discovery are ongoing journeys. Each day is an opportunity to learn, grow, reconnect, and take aligned action toward becoming the most authentic version of ourselves.

You have the power to create meaningful change in your life, and it begins with choosing YOURSELF.

I would love to connect with you through a FREE 30-minute intro session where we can get to know each other, explore your goals, and discover if we are a good fit to work together.
