We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Coach Kode a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Coach Kode, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Let’s start with the story of your mission. What should we know?
I learned not to control my emotions. I learned to become an alcoholic because I didn’t deal with my emotions properly. I felt unloved, abandon, rejected, mistreated, judged and I thought that the world was full of people who don’t care and I care. I cared so much about everyone else’s feelings and thoughts that I forgot about me.
Although, I have been in Education for over 20 years and social work for over 10 years, I wasn’t able to guide people to their Higher Self like I wanted to because of regulations and constant supervision from the field of education and social work. Also, I wasn’t disciplined and I hadn’t had a shift in enlightenment or ascension at the time.
I understand people fears, traumas, anxieties, doubts and confusion of who they are. I help people see their true selves through various Zen Life packages that I offer. My mission is to make your Zen Life a way of living!
Kevin, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
I am Kode which means legend and that name represents the Higher Self. My given name is Kevin and that represent my lower aspect of myself. No right or wrong in either one of those name or the attributes that come with the name, we are dealing with duality here at the present time.
I have been an educator, school administrator and social worker for over twenty years. I discovered life coaching in 2012 and became certified and continued to work in the education and social services industries. It was time to move on and I decide to create my own life coaching business over three years ago and I’ve been going since.
I became an alcoholic at the age of 14 and it was because of learned behaviors. I was depress at times and yet I knew something was special about me but I lacked love around me. I had to find the love within myself and thats what I help clients with. They learn how to love themselves. We must acknowledge and get over traumas in order to forgive ourselves and others. I help the clients cultivate a plan that will hold them accountable and consistent with the work of connecting to their Higher Selves. I understand that this earth is a mirror and we are reflections of one another. If you don’t believe me, how come you can see me in your eyes if you were looking directly in my eyes? Thats what makes this work so fulfilling because I understand who I am and what I am supposed to do down here in this last experience of mines. I am an old soul and I’m just passing through helping those along my journey. When I ascended in consciousness, my whole life made total sense.
I’m proud that I have no fear and I trust myself in this business. I don’t compete because that comes with suffering. I am about results and I have worked with over 100 people in the past three years and I am having a blast! I am doing exactly what I want to do. This work comes from the heart because I would do this for free.
What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?
I cannot love anyone or anything more than myself. I understand my story before birth that I did not want to return to Earth. I know I had already made my decision but I try to renege because I knew there was little to know love down here. So, I was born with the umbilical cord wrapped around my neck and feet first. My appendix also ruptured when I was two years old. And through my life I was looking for love and I had to realize, I AM LOVE. I am the all.
Any advice for growing your clientele? What’s been most effective for you?
Being authentic and a genuine person is my strategy for growing clientele. I am not selling no one anything. I can’t save anyone. I am here to show people on how to save themselves. I am online and will be opening up an office soon or a wellness center. I continue to grow spiritually and I know in person would be empowering.
