Emily Grace
I empower modern leaders to cultivate deep self-awareness, build authentic confidence, and infuse more fulfillment into their lives and work.
As a certified embodiment and integrative wellness coach with over six years of experience, I support ambitious professionals through life’s transitions, using challenges to build emotional resilience and reconnect with their power.
As a therapeutic coach, I provide a safe space for emotional exploration and healing, while guiding you toward actionable steps to achieve your goals. My approach blends embodiment techniques, mindfulness practices, and personal growth strategies to support whole-person transformation. As a therapeutic coach, I combine coaching strategies with trauma-informed, healing-focused techniques to help clients move forward with clarity and resilience.
I’m a speaker, breathwork facilitator, and a published author of Wholeness Within, and share guidance on YouTube to inspire intentional, simple living.
I work with clients through 1-1 customized coaching, online courses, group coaching, corporate workshops, and retreats.
My expertise has been featured in Bustle, Medium, Thrive Global, Authority Magazine, and Thought Catalog.
Passion meets purpose.
I know first-hand what it’s like to be in a career and life that feel suffocating.
Even as my marketing career offered me the opportunity to live abroad in London to work at Google, and New York City to work at a marketing agency, I struggled to navigate corporate politics, healing from workplace trauma, and making work my identity.
Even as I achieved stereotypical ‘success’ and my goals, I felt empty and confused. Maybe you can relate. I had what everyone else would look at and think would be fulfilling, but instead I dreaded going into work.
I yearned for a new life, but I didn’t know what that would look like. The fear of the unknown kept me hanging on to what I knew.
Until in 2016, where my life and subsequently my career, came to a head, after my dad’s unexpected death.
I went through grief, burnout, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and betrayal. It was my true rock bottom, as multiple failed attempts at pursuing my past corporate life, forced me to face the truth and go in a new direction.
Ultimately, I realized that in order to lead and make an impact, you have to have deep self awareness, and the tools for authentic emotional expression and genuine connection. Finding fulfillment starts with feeling whole.
Healing trauma from my upbringing and life’s experiences through embodiment tools like breathwork and somatic experiencing, allowed me to approach my desired new life path, with its inevitable challenges & emotional labor pains, in a much more easeful and healthy way.
Healing
meets
action
Through successfully navigating this experience, and discovering my new path on the other side (coaching and consulting in the mountains of North Carolina), my mission was to help others do the same: to trust & love themselves, process their emotions safely, and step into their next chapters with intention.
Over the years, I’ve developed signature systems to release trapped emotions so the authentic self can emerge and clarity can arise. This includes shedding the masks that were built over time: the people-pleasing, hyper-achiever persona that was just a strategy to get needs met as a child.
I combined this with strategies to rewire the subconscious mind and self-perception on a mind-body-spirit-emotional level, not possible through traditional coaching. I’m passionate about what’s possible with post-traumatic growth, creative expression, spiritual connection, and somatic experiencing. My work is about future-oriented growth while holding space for emotional healing, rather than delving into unresolved trauma or clinical issues.
I also have an extensive training background: I’m certified in embodiment coaching through The School of Embodied Arts, trained in breathwork facilitation through David Elliott and Erin Telford, trained in Positive Psychology through Positive Intelligence, certified in Psychological First Aid through the National Child Traumatic Stress Network, and certified in integrative life coaching through the Integrative Wellness Academy.
Transform your life with therapeutic coaching
When I’m not supporting clients, I love traveling the world, finding new spots in nature to explore with my dachsador pup Diego outside of Asheville, North Carolina, tending to my plants, and learning about personal development tools to share with my clients.
I also love collecting teas, baking vegan treats, and reading at least three books at once.
