Kelly Lynch CPCC, CNTC, PCC

Coach, teacher, mentor, and visionary, Kelly is a powerful guide for the radical times in which we live, where we are all being called to dream a new story.

Kelly’s childhood was spent outdoors exploring the natural world around her, sensing its inherent rhythms and patterns. She discovered that these patterns could inform us about ourselves, which put her on the path to helping others uncover their own nature, genius, and purpose.

A student of mythology, anthropology, and positive psychology, Kelly combines an artist’s eye with the scientist’s mind to illuminate the magic and mysteries of what it means to be human and to create. Weaving a rich blend of art, imagery, myth, and archetypes, along with ancient wisdom teachings, she leads clients on an exhilarating journey to unlock hidden gifts and talents. Kelly has designed and developed modern applications of the ancient science that help her clients learn the language of the right brain to heal and transform old habits. With Kelly, clients move beyond the spells, traps, and quagmires of the overthinking mind onto the path of consciousness, or as the ancients called it, the path with heart. Kelly’s clients share stories of leaps in perception leading to a sense of newness, creativity, flow, and productivity.

An expert in the science of emotion, Kelly has facilitated numerous keynote sessions across North America, connecting the dots between the healing power of music, mind, emotions, and the brain. One of her passions is creative leadership exploration that examines the brain in nature. This includes designing and building experiential, nature-based programs and retreats across Canada and the United States. In addition, Kelly volunteers as a coach with the United Nations Development Plan.

Kelly has a private practice in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, where she lives with her son Kasra and their Portuguese water dog Georgia-Rey.
