Choosing your spiritual coaching niche is one of the most important decisions we made when starting our business.
Without a clear focus, it’s easy to feel scattered, struggle to attract clients, or dilute our message.
In this post, we’ll guide you through how to discover your niche with clarity, soul alignment, and confidence.
Why You Need a Spiritual Coaching Niche
When we first started coaching, we thought being open to everyone would bring in more clients. But we quickly learned that a clear coaching niche:
-
Positions us as experts
-
Speaks directly to our ideal clients’ pain points
-
Helps us create targeted, transformational offers
-
Increases trust and referrals
Remember: The more specific we are, the more magnetic we become.
Signs You Haven’t Chosen the Right Niche Yet
If you’re experiencing any of the following, your niche might need refining:
-
You struggle to explain what you do in one sentence
-
Your content feels generic or inconsistent
-
You’re attracting unaligned clients—or none at all
-
You’re unsure how to package or price your offer
We’ve been there. Clarifying our niche helped us shift from confusion to consistent clients.
Step 1: Start With Your Spiritual Gifts and Life Experience
Your niche lives at the intersection of your natural gifts, lived experience, and soul mission. Ask yourself:
-
What spiritual tools or practices transformed you?
-
What struggles have you overcome that others are facing now?
-
What do people naturally come to you for advice on?
-
What do you feel called to help others with?
We discovered our niche by revisiting our own awakening journey. What healed us became what we teach.
Step 2: Identify the Type of Clients You Want to Serve
The best niche connects your passion with the people you’re meant to serve. Think about:
-
Who are they? (e.g., empaths, healers, high-achieving women, burned-out professionals)
-
What are they struggling with?
-
What transformation are they craving?
🎯 Niche formula: “I help [specific group] overcome [specific problem] so they can [specific result].”Example: “I help spiritual women heal from people-pleasing so they can live authentically and speak their truth.”
