Back to Brilliance

The stress you can handle. It's the exhaustion that gets you down.

If I know you, you’ve spent years (if not decades) striving to be at the top of your game in all areas of your life.

Most people marvel at just how much you’re always able to get done, but for your it's always felt natural to push yourself to the limit. Once you set your sights on a goal, you'll stop at nothing until it's accomplished.

But lately your energy and passion has been eclipsed by exhaustion.

You feel constantly tired, regardless of how much you're able to sleep.
Even minor inconveniences leave you feeling irritable and snappy.
Your usual mental clarity has been replaced by an inability to focus.
You look around at your life, seeing success on the surface, but feeling utterly drained underneath.

When was the last time you felt truly excited about your life?

You would love for things to be different, BUT . . .

You don't have time for "one more thing": Worried about time commitment? My tailored coaching fits seamlessly into your schedule, offering flexible sessions that adapt to your busy life. As a result of working with me my clients always end up with MORE time that they can use for doing the things that they love.
You've tried to fix this on your own and nothing works: The majority of my clients come to me feeling exactly the same way. My approach ensures that you'll have a structured plan and personalized guidance that will ensure your progress. You'll feel empowered to be your own expert, but rest assured my experience as an award-winning coach will give you the perspective you've been missing.
It's hard for you to open up, especially since you've been burned before: I completely get it. Trust takes time to build. In my coaching sessions, you'll find a warm, accepting environment where you can be yourself without pressure. My style is gentle and supportive, ensuring you feel secure as we navigate this journey together.
You can't afford it: I recognize the concern. But consider this investment as a way to prevent greater costs down the road from unmanaged stress. Your health is priceless, and this is a step towards preserving it. Additionally, we can explore flexible payment options to ensure this investment aligns comfortably with your financial situation.

What we'll cover

Every 1:1 coaching program is tailored to your needs, but here are some areas that my clients love to spend time on:

Mind-body connection. Learn how to connect with the present moment: your body, your breath, where you are in the here and now. Our bodies are sending us messages all the time, but most of us are too busy (or distracted) to listen. Imagine what would change if you knew how to check in with your body's signals and be receptive to what they have to say.

Nourishment. When you stop eating to fit into a certain size and start eating out of love for your body and respect for your hormones, your whole relationship with food will change. Let's get you eating the foods that help to stabilise your moods and keep your energy strong throughout the day.

Rituals. Life can be a lot sometimes and there are times when everything comes at you all at once. Having rituals in place will give you security in troubling times and make sure that you're looking after yourself no matter what. Let's figure out which practices will best be suited to your lifestyle so that you can feel grounded and calm no matter what.

Boundaries. Giving everything we have to other people means we don't leave anything for ourselves. As a result of working with me, you'll feel secure in your worth and ready to look out for your own needs, wants, and desires.

Self-compassion. How much longer will you go without giving yourself a break? It's time to put your inner critic in the corner and give the spotlight over to radical self-love and self-acceptance. It's time to let go of those impossible standards and replace them with inner peace.

Self-leadership. Let’s turn the volume up on those intuitive hunches and help you make choices that light up your soul. You’ve been doing what makes sense for long enough. Now’s the perfect time to break the rules and go after what feels good.

Surrender. Who you were is not who you’re now meant to be. On some days this can feel liberating and other days terrifying, but you can free up so much energy when you decide to let it all go. What do you need to release so you can be the most vibrant, unapologetic version of yourself? Together we’ll find out!

Working with Jolinda has been one of the greatest, most clarifying endeavors of my life. Not only does she allow me to reframe my mindset about work, she provides real insights I would not have known how to make about myself, my own way of thinking and my self worth.

She provides a safe haven to discuss and a new perspective in which to view all my fears and worries. She gives truly constructive feedback and instruction on how to manage overwhelming feelings and make them discernible and manageable.

We all should be so lucky to work with a teacher as gifted as Jolinda. I count myself lucky every day!

Stacy London, USA

The changes I experienced transcended my relationship with my work, into my relationship with others more broadly and with myself.

The sessions on self-compassion and boundaries, in particular, were really pivotal in helping me to understand and incorporate new ways of relating. These have allowed me to look after my own needs without guilt or the need to explain to others, which in turn has attracted more of the kind of support and understanding that I need (at work and in my personal life).

I still reflect on what it means to have self-compassion and boundaries on a daily basis as I learn to let go of older, unhealthy patterns. These lessons have really stayed with me.

"'I'd never worked with a health coach before and wasn't sure if talking about health and how I nourish myself on every level would feel prescriptive or if I'd feel resistant.

Jolinda's approach is warm and welcoming and the process is grounded and supportive so that any hesitation melted away as soon as we began. I left our first session feeling really seen and calm.

Her support is both powerful and practical. The changes I’m making are tailored to me and done in a way that is not only manageable but joyful. I feel like I’m getting back my spark and vitality again and I have the tools to make everything possible."

FAQs

What makes this program different?

This program is the culmination of my experience as a Certified Holistic Health Coach, an award-winning Certified Life Coach, and a Priestess. You would be hard pressed to find a coaching program that addresses your needs specifically from all three angles: body, mind, and spirit. You could do three separate programs with three different coaches, each specializing in a different area, or you could work with me over the course of six months and experience the lasting change that you've been waiting for.

Do you guarantee results?

I guarantee that you will not finish this program the same person that you started it. I am excellent at helping my clients achieve their deepest, heart-centered goals in a relatively short amount of time. Many clients have come to me after working with other coaches and therapists in the past, and are surprised at how much headway we're able to make in just one session.

I don't identify as a woman, but would like help with everything you mention here. Will I be a good fit?

Yes! What matters most to me is your interest in exploring the issues described above. If you're reading this and you have (or once had) a menstrual cycle, but don't identify as a woman, I'm here for you.

What is your professional background?

I am a Certified Holistic Health Coach (Institute of Integrative Nutrition, 2013), a Certified Life Coach (Beautiful You Coaching Academy, 2017), and a Certified Menopause Coaching Specialist (Girls Gone Strong, 2024). I also hold a Master of Science in Education (Pace University, 2006) and a Bachelor of Arts (Columbia University, 2004). Before starting my business, I was a teacher in schools in New York City, Detroit, and Barcelona, Spain where I currently live.

How do you accept payments?

All payments can be made via PayPal using your PayPal account or any major credit card. I also accept bank transfers via TransferWise.

Will this program be personalized for my needs?

As much as I love protocols, I guarantee that your entire 1:1 program will be customized to suit your individual needs. If there is something that you've been holding onto for a while that you want to give your full attention to, please let me know during the discovery call and I will confirm that it's in alignment with my areas of expertise.

Do you work with clients worldwide?

Yes! Absolutely. I've worked with clients from Sydney to Sacramento. If you don't see a convenient time to book in my calendar, you can send me an email at jolinda@jolindajohnson.com and I will personally look for an alternative.

Are all sessions conducted with Jolinda?

Yes, absolutely! When you sign up for a coaching series you are guaranteed time with Jolinda exclusively.

How long is each session?

Each session is 90 minutes total. In the first ten minutes we practice a grounding meditation exercise, check in with how you're feeling, and set our intention for the session. The next 60 minutes is devoted to exploring the topic of the day as I ask you powerful questions related to your experience so that you can make discoveries and come up with your own answers. We then set action steps in the next 15 minutes that are related to your goals and the issues that we have just discussed. Finally, the last 5 minutes is used to pull an oracle card for reflection and share the biggest takeaway from our time together.

How often do we meet?

We meet every two weeks for 90 minutes, for a total of 12 sessions.

What happens when I click "APPLY NOW"?

You'll be redirected to my calendar to schedule in a 30-minute discovery session. This is a complimentary session to see if coaching with me is the right fit for you. If we both agree that Back to Brilliance is the right decision, we'll proceed from there with future scheduling and payment.
