The statistics of Cancer in the U.S. are astounding.  Each year over 1.7 million individuals will be diagnosed with cancer.  1 in every 2 men and 1 in every 3 women will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime.  Because of cancer, these lives are disrupted and turned upside down.

You can be part of transforming their experience.

As the nation’s first Cancer Coach Training Organization, The Cancer Journey Institute is also the only company and program of its type to be accredited by The International Coaching Federation (ICF).  

During this period of upheaval, it is natural for cancer patients, survivors and caregivers to re-evaluate their lives and re-examine their values.  It’s also natural to be wrestling with all the unresolved issues, traumas, and challenges of our lives as cancer amplifies them and brings them to a head.  However, internal support (the mental, emotional, and spiritual) is often less than a second thought as the medical team focuses on the healing of the physical body.  

You can be that missing piece.

As a Certified Cancer Journey Coach, accredited by the ICF, we introduce you to a holistic coaching methodology, which gives you all of the tools you need to apply to your coaching practice.  We teach you how to hold space and to articulate and address their immediate needs while helping them see their desired future.  

By addressing the needs of their spirit, you’ll become both a complement and essential ingredient to their support team.  Our spiritual and soulful methodology grounded in the pursuit of higher love and deeper purpose is both universal and highly applicable to all individuals regardless of their faith or religion.  

Cancer Journey Coaching helps them, even and especially when times get rough. You will help them reach deep within to find a well of strength, clarity and peace as they heal their body, mind, and spirit. Most importantly, you will help them experience their cancer journey as a personal-growth and transformative adventure.

OUR LEARNING MODEL: EXPERIENCE IT, LEARN IT, LIVE IT

Experience the client perspective and grow from the process.

At The Cancer Journey Institute, we don’t coach our clients through any process we have not first experienced ourselves. The course is designed so you experience the coaching process from the client perspective in tandem with learning the methodology, tools and concepts you will practice as a coach.

Learn by experiencing and applying the tools in between class meetings.

Following your first weekend as a Cancer Journey Coach trainee you will be paired with a “Coaching Buddy” so you can practice the tools and concepts introduced each week. All “Buddy Sessions” will be conducted over the phone (or video conference.) With this methodology, you will integrate what you have learned into your life as well as your profession.

Live the tools and concepts as you apply them to your life.

“Living it” will move you beyond integration. You will also expand your perception and accelerate your personal growth. Both are key components of Cancer Journey Coaching. 

DATES

Opening Weekend includes three days of introductory content to welcome you into the Program and gets the group on the same page with coaching language and concepts.  

Following completion of the formal training and certification exams, the Cancer Journey Coach is welcomed into the larger community “The International Association of Cancer Coaches,” which provides advanced trainings, recurring meetings, and opportunities.
