Did you know Nathan and I met at Tipu's – at the time, the only all vegetarian restaurant in the entire state of Montana? It had the BEST chai you've ever enjoyed. And sometimes for fun during our shifts we'd try to get as caffeinated as possible.
What "fun"! (Insert not-fun facial expression).
We also had a cool, confident, and funny co-worker named Holly, who eventually moved away, but when she came back to visit she shared with us what she'd been up to. As it turns out she had become a Life Coach.
I forget everything about that conversation – where she got her training, what kind of coaching she was doing etc. – but what I do remember, still to this day, nearly two decades later, is how she described her place of work.
She said:
I sit out on my deck, with my coffee, amongst the trees and the birds, and talk to people.
This stayed with me.
I do believe this scene painted by Holly was a very powerful seed for what Nathan and I would later create: The Center for Emotional Education. For 17 years now we’ve been supporting incredibly successful people who still struggle with emotional overwhelm, anxiety, and/or depression that consistently gets in their way, robs them of satisfaction, and ruins everything.
We help our clients learn how to operate their emotional systems, heal long-standing emotional wounds, and rewire their brains to be better at feelings, so they can enjoy better health, easier wealth, and more satisfying relationships.
And, as it turns out, we also created our own cozy office spaces.
Natalie's office includes a low comfy couch and a brown dog!
Nathan's office includes a very devoted tuxedo cat and a view over mountains to the west.
Our mission at the Center for Emotional Education includes training others to become powerful NeuroEmotional Coaches in their own right, helping their own people to have the success they want and deserve.
And these gorgeous humans are stationed in their very own beautiful, personal, cozy offices all over the planet.
We thought we'd share some of their offices with you, too.
Who knows?
Maybe these snapshots of meaningful work in incredible spaces might just be the seeds that sprout your coaching career.
My cozy corner. - Kate
Here’s my cozy office! A soft mauvey purple rocking/swivel chair with a cozy golden chenille blanket, next to my window where I can hear the birds and watch the changing seasons. A most peaceful spot. – Romy
Here's my cozy year-round office. I like to surround myself with the necessities: earbuds, easy access to information, warm tea, fire, water, lights, easy view of surroundings, scents and textures, anchors and plant friends.
Not pictured: guides and cats that sometimes don't want to be photographed. – Goose
I definitely feel extra lucky to be able to live and work from a sailboat! Pretty fun. I’m including a photo of the cozy little nook where I tend to work most and a picture of me nestled up there.
– Erin
Sitting with some immense gratitude this morning that this can be my office whenever I need it to be. I’ve worked very hard to be able to sit in bed on a chilly Monday morning doing my absolute dream work, NeuroEmotional Coaching. – Shannon
My cozy office :-) – Annique
My office is an oasis of inspiration and calm, I love looking out at the tree and hearing the birds. – Nina
If you're interested in creating your own cozy business and your own cozy office space, you may want to consider becoming a NeuroEmotional Coach.
People need people.
People need you.
We'll be here under our furry animals if you want to ask us some questions about this work!
Much love,
Natalie and Nathan
