Every other month, I showcase a business owner making a difference in the wellness field. I hope this gives you a bit of inspiration—I know it keeps me inspired to work hard! Here’s my Q+A with Marcy Kocher of Kocher Coaching Concepts.
Marcy is a certified life and weight loss coach who helps smart but stressed women create a life of passion, purpose and peace. Her focus is on teaching them to rewire their brains to work for them instead of against them.
Why are you passionate about living a healthy lifestyle?
Having a healthy mind and body is the foundation that empowers us to live our best life. I intend to live a long life full of love, loss, joy and pain. I intend to grow and evolve until the day I die. My goal is to look back on my very full life with no regrets and be able to say with confidence—well done!
What motivated you to start your business?
For most of my life, I struggled with emotional overeating, difficult relationships, financial struggles, stress, worry, overwhelm and exhaustion. At the age of forty, I experienced some very difficult circumstances and decided to be done with that part of my life once and for all. I realized that I needed to change from the inside out. I was wowed by the power of coaching in my life.
Today, I have learned healthy strategies and techniques for dealing with difficult situations. I have lost weight and kept it off. I am in an amazing marriage with the man of my dreams, I don’t do stress, worry, overwhelm and exhaustion anymore and my life is more prosperous than ever before. I want to empower and teach everyone to experience the abundance and the peace that I learned to create. If I can do it any one can!
What is unique about the services you offer?
My coaching is radically transformational because we deal with the root cause instead of symptoms. This is not accountability coaching that adds more to your to do list. This is about changing the way you think and feel so that you easily become the woman you know you were meant to be.
I help people grow faster, perform at higher levels, understand themselves more deeply, and live with greater purpose, passion and peace. In the same way that a personal trainer helps a pro athlete maximize performance, I can help you get the most out of life.
Tell us about the clients you work with and the type of transformation they achieve.
My clients know they were meant for more and they are ready for change. They have gained confidence, created more time, freedom, money and love. They have better relationships with themselves and with others all while learning to accomplish their dreams from a place of peace and ease.
What has changed in your life since you started your business?
Since starting my business, I have grown so much personally and professionally. I’ve succeeded and I’ve failed and most importantly, I’ve learned to love myself and have my own back no matter what. Loving myself fiercely has enabled me to love others in a more powerful and authentic way.
What is your favorite way to spend your free time?
One of my favorite things to do is to sit outside with a cup of tea and a good book. It instantly takes me to a place of gratitude as I realize how abundant my life is and I am so thankful for all of it.
