Isabela Mincu is one of the coaches that we found this month and we did a little interview with her. She impressed us with her vast skillset and kindness.

She has always felt a natural pull to help others, even before she realized life coaching would be her path. What started as an interest in psychology grew into a passion for a holistic approach to healing and growth. Over the years, she combined certifications, personal exploration, and even her musical background to create a practice rooted in empathy, wisdom, and transformation.

She also knows the strength it takes to overcome life’s hardest challenges. After experiencing profound loss and searching for her true self, she learned resilience and the power of turning pain into purpose. Her growth has not come from one obstacle, but from many, and each one shaped the depth and authenticity she now brings to her work.

She blends these lessons into a coaching style that is deeply personal and never one size fits all. Using energy practices, mindset tools, sound therapy, and practical strategies, she meets each client exactly where they are. Her work is about COcreating transformation, guiding people from struggle to clarity, and walking with them on their journey of growth. Here is what she said…

Meet Life Coach Isabela Mincu:

Name: Isabela Mincu

Pillar: The Spirit, The Mind, The Body, The Heart

Who is this coach for: Anyone who is seeking a holistic, personalized path to healing, growth, and authentic transformation.

How they can help: By guiding clients through a personalized journey that blends practical strategies, active listening, mindset shifts, and holistic tools from journaling and meditation to sleep routines, energy work and sound therapy, just to name a few.

First of all, how are you and your family doing after these Pandemic times?

My family and I are doing really well!

The pandemic provided an unexpected gift of space and focus.

While many faced hardships, I was fortunate to see it as an opportunity for personal growth.

The restrictions allowed me to refocus and reconnect with myself and my loved ones in ways I hadn’t before.

Working from home boosted my efficiency and, with fewer distractions, I found myself developing deeper connections with both my inner self and my clients.

It gave me the time and space to grow, allowing me to align more closely with my true calling and to pour more into my loved ones and my work.

How did the coronavirus pandemic affect your clients? Did it affect you at all?

For many people, the pandemic was a wake up call.

It challenged their old habits and priorities, pushing them toward self reflection.

When it comes to my clients, I helped them adapt, guiding them to find new ways to connect with themselves amidst the change.

Personally, I didn’t experience disruption in the way others did.

For me, the pandemic became a moment of inner transformation.

With fewer distractions, like commuting, I had the time and space to focus on growing my presence in the digital world.

I embraced it as an opportunity to align more deeply with my calling and to refine my ability to help others.

It was about thriving, not just surviving, in this new setup, and I’ve seen this shift in perspective ripple through to my clients as well.

They’ve learned to see adversity as an opportunity for growth, just as I did.

What are the biggest lessons that you learned in this pandemic?

The pandemic taught me so much about both myself and the world.

I realized that work and connection don’t have to be tied to a specific location, I can thrive anywhere.

More importantly, I discovered that energy transcends physical space.

I learned that I could still connect deeply with others through virtual channels and even saw how telepathic exercises produced even more profound results.

But perhaps the most important lesson was the realization that stillness is a gateway to profound self awareness.

The phrase “be still and know thyself” became my guiding light and mantra during those challenging months, bringing me clarity, peace, and insights I could never have imagined before.

The Origin:

Tell us about you, your career, how you started with your coaching career?

Becoming a life coach has always felt like my natural path, even if I didn’t know back when I was younger that this is what I would end up doing.

I’ve always felt called to help others on their journey and, as time passed, to share the wisdom I’ve gained from my own experiences and lessons learned.

I initially wanted to become a psychologist and went down that path for a while, but soon realized it was limiting me from what I really wanted to do, which was a more holistic approach.

Over the past few years, as my calling became clearer, I’ve taken active steps to formalize that desire, learning about different topics, gaining certifications in various coaching methodologies and energy practices, and putting my musical background to good use.

As time seemed to move faster and I found myself deeply connected to personal growth work, my purpose became even more refined.

In the past year, I realized just how precious time is and that I could offer valuable guidance to those seeking clarity and healing.

I felt an urgency to step into this role even more and offer both my lived wisdom as well as the knowledge I’ve gained through certifications in different (but complementary) fields.

Now, more than ever, I am ready to offer the world a unique blend of personal experience and expertise that can help guide others through their own transformation.

What was your biggest obstacle that you had to overcome in your life that made you who you are today?

This is a tough question because I believe it’s not just one single obstacle that shaped who I am today.

Rather, it’s a series of challenges that built me over time.

But if I have to name one of the biggest obstacles I met, it must be my long search for my inner self, as well as a deeper, true understanding of life’s meaning.

I witnessed those around me struggling with issues that weren’t so different from my own, even if they looked different on the surface.

The real turning point came when I faced profound personal loss at a young age, which forced me to trust in my own strength and resilience.

I had to become my own support system while also being a pillar for my family.

This experience pushed me to heal, find my purpose, and sparked a burning desire to help others through their own struggles, knowing that we all face difficult times in different ways.

The Coaching Style:

How do you innovate with coaching your clients?

I believe innovation comes from being unapologetically me.

I don’t follow a cookie cutter approach.

I draw on a vast range of methodologies, but I never use a one size fits all strategy.

Instead, I meet each client where they are, tuning into their unique needs, desires, and life experiences.

Listening deeply, I adapt proven techniques with a personal touch, crafting tailored guidance that empowers clients to transform their life scripts.

Whether it’s through practical steps or shifting mindsets, I help them move from where they are now (Point A) to where they want to be (Point B).

I believe that my ability to personalize each journey by truly empathizing with each client at a core level is what sets my work apart, as no two clients (or coaching paths) are the same.

What’s unique about your coaching approach?

What makes my approach unique is that it’s deeply personal.

I weave my life lessons into the coaching journey, drawing on my own growth, struggles, and experiences to connect with my clients on a human level.

I believe we are all on different paths, but our struggles are often shared, and that shared experience creates a powerful foundation for healing.

I meet each client where they are, truly listening to their unique needs, desires, and obstacles they face.

I draw on a wide variety of coaching methodologies, adapting them to fit the person in front of me.

My coaching style integrates empathy, authenticity, and practical techniques to help clients heal, grow, evolve, and become the best version of themselves.

I tailor everything, from proven techniques to personal life frameworks, guiding clients to move from where they are to where they want to be.

My ability to combine my life experiences, lessons learned, and coaching tools creates a personalized journey for each individual.

My approach is more about COcreating a transformative experience that is unique to each client rather than following a script.

What benefits do your clients get after working with you?

After working with me, clients experience shifts in many areas of their lives.

Whether it’s achieving personal or business goals, developing healthier relationships, or finding more inner peace, they see tangible transformations.

My approach is deeply empathetic, and because I can relate to many of the struggles my clients face, I can easily expose what they may be avoiding and offer advice grounded in my own experiences.

Truth can be a tough pill to swallow, but after working with me, clients often report feeling more empowered, with a clearer sense of purpose and the tools and mindset they need to move forward confidently.

Whether it’s making progress toward their goals, gaining clarity, or improving their relationships, many also report an increased ability to manifest what they truly want in their lives.

While the benefits are always individual, I consistently see an increase in happiness, confidence, and overall fulfillment.

And it goes both ways, really, I grow alongside them.

With every session, with every one of my interactions, I learn new things every day, and I am grateful for every reflection.

Do you use any specific tools to be efficient with your clients?

Yes, I use a variety of tools that I tailor to each client’s needs.

These include energy work like Reiki and chakra healing, along with sound therapy, hypnosis, and(or) meditation to promote balance and connect clients to their higher consciousness.

I also incorporate techniques such as mindset reframing, deep listening, journaling, and cognitive behavioral methods to help shift thought patterns and improve mental clarity.

Movement, massage, nourishment practices, and sleep routines are also part of my deep dive approach to support overall well being.

These tools often overlap, creating a personalized approach that encourages transformation on every level.

I’m continuously exploring new modalities to expand my toolkit, as I believe in constant growth for both my clients and myself.

The right combination of these practices often leads to profound shifts, and I love seeing the positive changes unfold in my clients’ lives.

The Impact:

If you had a super megaphone that, when you speak into, the whole world will hear your message, what would you say?

Be still and know thyself.

Trust that in stillness, we uncover our true selves.

No matter how challenging life gets, don’t give up on your dreams.

They are the seeds of your soul’s calling, and they hold the power to guide you through the toughest of times.

What is the greatest lesson you have learned in your life?

One of the greatest lessons life has taught me is that true love, whether for yourself or others, begins with healthy boundaries.

It’s not just about saying “I love you” or offering unconditional love, it’s about recognizing when something, or someone, isn’t serving your highest good and being brave enough to let go.

For example, self discipline is a form of self love, like saying “no” to that evening snack when you know it’s not nourishing your body.

Or, for example, distancing yourself from a friend who constantly plays the victim role, even though you love them.

In both cases, you’re showing love in a way that protects your energy and creates space for healthier dynamics.

Self love isn’t just indulgence, it’s the ability to set boundaries that allow us to thrive, not just live life in survival mode.

At its core, self love and unconditional love for others are one and the same.

They both require boundaries, respect, and the courage to prioritize what truly serves you.

This is the foundation of growth and transformation.

Your final thoughts?

HouseofCalme is just emerging.

I finally came to the conclusion that I need to offer my services across borders so others can benefit as well.

Therefore, we are now in the process of building a website as well as a podcast and coming online in the digital space, where I will be sharing some of the work I do, so stay tuned!

In this context, I am deeply grateful for the wonderful opportunity to express myself in this way here and thank you, Dejan, for sharing this space with me on your channel.

I am deeply thankful for anyone who took their time to read these words, and whoever you are, even if we may never meet, I honor you.

I love you, and bright blessings to you on your Path!

Much, much love!
