We were lucky to catch up with Alesha Trimble recently and have shared our conversation below.

Alesha , thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today We’d love to hear about how you went about setting up your own practice and if you have any advice for professionals who might be considering starting their own?

The idea of starting my divorce coaching practice emerged from my own personal experiences. I was a child of divorce and after going through a divorce, I realized how isolating and overwhelming the process can be. Despite feeling lost, I found solace in understanding my emotions and learning to navigate the complexities of this life transition.

Driven by my own journey, I decided to turn my passion for helping others into a profession. I obtained certifications in coaching, ensuring that I could provide clients with the tools they needed to heal and rebuild their lives. I wanted to create a safe and non-judgmental space where individuals could express their feelings, gain clarity, and rediscover their strength.

With a vision in mind, I launched my practice, focusing on empowering individuals to embrace their journey, reframe their narratives, and set achievable goals. I developed programs tailored to various stages of the divorce process, integrating mindset coaching, emotional support, and practical strategies.

As I embarked on this journey, I found immense fulfillment in witnessing my clients grow, heal, and thrive. Each success story reinforced my belief in the importance of supportive coaching during such a life-altering transition.

Today, my divorce coaching practice continues to evolve as I strive to empower more individuals to navigate their unique journeys, reclaim their lives, and foster resilience. I am grateful to turn my passion into a purpose, helping others find hope and strength in the aftermath of divorce.

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

I’m the owner and founder of Wellness Collective Coaching, a divorce and wellness coaching practice.

Through coaching, I guide individuals through the emotional and practical aspects of the divorce process.

Emotional Support: I provide a safe space for clients to express their feelings, fears, and anxieties regarding the divorce by offering empathy and validation, helping clients navigate the emotional turmoil that often accompanies the end of a relationship.

Clarity and Decision-Making: Divorce can involve many confusing decisions. I help clients clarify their goals, values, and priorities, empowering them to make informed choices about their future.

Goal Setting: We work together, setting realistic and achievable goals for their post-divorce life. This may include personal, financial, or career-oriented goals, encouraging a focus on rebuilding and moving forward.

Coping Strategies: I equip clients with practical tools and coping strategies to manage stress, anxiety, and feelings of overwhelm. This may include mindfulness techniques, journaling, or self-care practices.

Support for Co-Parents: For clients with children, I offer guidance on co-parenting strategies, helping to facilitate healthy communication and collaboration between ex-partners to prioritize the children’s well-being.

My primary goal with each client is to encourage personal growth and resilience, helping to rebuild their lives, regain self-confidence, and cultivate a positive mindset as they transition into a new chapter.
I serve as a supportive ally, helping clients navigate one of life’s most challenging transitions while promoting healing, growth, and empowerment.

My work is personal, having been a child of divorce and going through my own divorce three years ago. I’m most proud to see clients begin to move forward and look positively at their new life.

I see clients both in-person at my office in Frisco and virtually.

Putting training and knowledge aside, what else do you think really matters in terms of succeeding in your field?

Experience is necessary. I wouldn’t wish divorce on anyone but to truly coach someone through the process effectively, you have to have lived it. The emotions are complex and it’s a long road that requires strength and patience.

How about pivoting – can you share the story of a time you’ve had to pivot?

I initially got my certification in wellness coaching. Wellness coaching is a holistic approach to overall wellbeing. Having worked in the fitness industry for years, my original plan was to coach individuals more focused on physical and mental health. As I attracted divorce clients, I knew this was where I needed to focus. I felt so passionate about navigating the journey of divorce and I loved seeing clients get to the other side excited and ready to move forward.
