Sounds great, but what does it mean? Let’s unpack it…
In a world that reinvents itself on a daily basis
Have you ever felt like a whole week has happened and it’s only been one day? We, as individuals and as a collective, are evolving at an exponential rate. Our world is rapidly changing. With the immediate connectivity of technology and social media, what is there (besides our own self-imposed limitations) to hold us back anymore?
we empower students and credentialed coaches
Whether you are a fully credentialed coach, a licensed therapist, someone brand new to coaching, or someone who’s taken a few classes, our curriculum will meet you where you are.
to adapt, integrate, and flourish from the inside out
Our intention is to empower you on your path, to inspire you to embody and realize the resiliency, engaged mindfulness, and connection it takes to live the good life. We believe that true change comes from within, and that global change happens on an individual basis.
for the betterment of all sentient beings.
We’re all in this together, quite literally! When the well-being of others is at the forefront of action and inspiration, the beauty of humanity and its potential is apparent. Coaching is quickly becoming a powerful way to inspire and actualize change. To reference a quote from Ghandi, to help others be the change they wish to see in the world.

Our History
In April 2015 the Mindfulness Coaching School was founded by Ann-Marie McKelvey, LPCC, MCC. She was already teaching and coaching, and knew how much she loved both. Ann-Marie realized the best way for her to live in a world with more kindness, compassion, and respect, that also supported her endeavor to live in an engaged and mindful way, was to teach more. One thing led to another, and the Mindfulness Coaching School came into being…
The school exceeded its five-year plan in just about nine months. Ann-Marie wasn’t alone in wanting to create and live in a more compassionate world. There are humans around the planet seeking the same, who have been coming to the school to co-create and realize that dream. One of them might be you.

What does our logo represent?
This is the Kanji (Japanese character) for the word mindfulness. It combines the ideograms for now (the present moment/that which covers all things) and heart/mind (the pairing of love and wisdom).
In 2016, Ann-Marie and Brittany attended a calligraphy workshop with renowned calligrapher and translator Kazuaki Tanahashi. Inspired by the meaning and beauty of this Kanji, they decided to incorporate it into the Mindfulness Coaching School’s logo.
The strength of heart and mind acting as one in the present moment felt like the perfect inspirational symbol for the mission of the school.
