Guthrie Sayen,
PhD, PCC
My soul’s purpose is to bring
healing and awakening
to those who share my calling.
My trainings transform the seeker and the healer so they can access their deepest gifts and follow their soul’s purpose. To help others transform, we must ourselves transform. We must embrace our wounds, and we must learn to access our true nature, which is whole, wise, loving, and good. (Read more about Healing and Awakening)

My latest venture
I created The Institute for Healing and Awakening to evolve global wellbeing by training coaches and other practitioners in facilitating transformation at the deepest levels. We take the participants in our programs on a personal journey of healing and awakening, so they may then help others heal their wounds and awaken fully the radiant joy of being alive.
Trainings offered by the institute include Coaching with Spirit, a foundational coach training, and Coaching IFS (Internal Family Systems), a series of advanced trainings.

How I found the
Bridge to the Divine
In search of my purpose, I followed many paths that had been blazed by others. They seemed promising at first but ultimately led to disappointment. Finally, I left the known trails and entered the dark wood where there was no apparent path and began feeling my way, guided from within.
Podcast, Interview, Keynote, Meditation
I am available for speaking engagements, customized group workshops, and any opportunities where I can spread the light of love.

How to Make Transformations Last
In this in-depth interview with Dmitry Dumik, I share my personal journey into coaching and discovering my soul’s purpose. We discuss how clients have been my greatest teachers, what makes for effective coaching, and Internal Family Systems as a path to healing and awakening. We also explore balancing masculine and feminine energy, choosing the right coach, and practical steps to take on your journey of transformation.
Coaching and IFS were made for each other
The gifted coach trainer Yannick Jacob interviews me for the Animas Centre for Coaching, based in London. For 80 minutes, we discuss how coaches can use IFS safely to support their clients in healing and awakening. Yannick also asks me about my soul’s purpose and approach to spirituality in coaching.
Guided Meditation: Four States of Nondual Realization
I led this meditation for the IFS Nondual Community. I take us on a journey through four different states of nonduality: spaciousness, fullness, stillness, and clarity. You can choose to stay in any one of those states, or you can taste all four. If one state appeals to you, practice sinking into and savoring that one. It could be any one of the four, or you could experiment at different times with each of the four. The meditation begins at 15:00 and ends at 30:30.
The Awakened Coach: Moving into Wellbeing to Facilitate Wellbeing
I delivered a keynote address at the 2nd Annual Transformative Coaching Summit, sponsored by Animas Centre for Coaching, based in the United Kingdom. My theme was spiritual awakening. To become and remain a master coach, you must be fully engaged in an ongoing program of personal healing and awakening. The meta-agenda of all coaching is fundamental wellbeing, or waking up to your true nature, that is, to your divinity. I suggest ways in which you can support your soul’s journey.
