About Me
It started with curiosity. Wondering what really makes people tick and why some people succeed beyond their wildest dreams, while others barely scratch the surface of their full potential. Over the years, teaching music was a wonderful vehicle for this exploration, and I got an amazing sense of accomplishment and fulfillment from championing my students to express themselves fully and authentically, to discover more of themselves than they ever thought possible.
My students’ transformations inspired me and fueled my passions for learning and making a difference.
I began to study successful people and to intentionally apply their principles to my own life and work. And the more I transformed myself, the more I saw the impact I was creating–empowering and uplifting those around me to also show up fully. Having tasted the possibilities, I was hungry for more, so followed my heart into coaching.
My clients include students, professionals, heart-centered entrepreneurs and fellow coaches. I help my clients discover their passions and connect with their authentic voices, so they can express them fully in their life and work. I work with clients to create clear visions for their future that are aligned with their values and purpose, and help them to identify and remove blocks so they can more quickly and easily achieve their goals. I love to connect on a deep level with my clients, to recognize and champion their potential.
I was trained and certified as a life coach through The Coaches Training Institute and received my holistic health coach training and certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. I am also a Certified Passion Test Facilitator.
As your coach, I will encourage you to think and dream big, to ask yourself “what’s possible” and to help you move forward while holding you accountable. I will challenge your negative thinking and limiting beliefs. I will support and encourage you when the going gets tough and celebrate your successes.

When I started working with Julia, I knew exactly what I wanted and made clear my intention. But, fortunately for me, Julia knew what I needed more and patiently supported and guided me to discover this for myself. I can honestly say, that I am a better person today for the time spent with Julia and have a greater clarity on what is needed for me to live my life on my terms and achieve the goals that I have set for myself. Onward and upward!

I am thankful for the beautiful gift Julia Mattern has held for me through coaching to play and explore how to shift and be open to receive multi-dimensional possibilities. A year ago, I was in a scary place. I had given all my power away and was ready to surrender. Little did I know that taking the step to commit to myself through coaching with Julia would transform my life and wellbeing greater than I could have ever imagined!
Along the way, I have been able to find forgiveness for others to heal and free myself from the burden it placed upon me. When it came to forgive myself, it seemed like I was fighting an uphill battle deep within and losing. I had no space living in the past to manifest my reality I wanted and desired now. Coaching enable me to find the strength in clarity I needed to let go of old belief patterns that were no longer serving me. Living in the present moment and loving yourself is definitely where life happens for me!
Now when I get up in the morning, I am excited and curious to explore my life and prosper! I have taken the responsibility to regain my power through coaching and I no longer dread the space I have created. I am blessed to have my coach, Julia. She holds a loving and safe place for me in our sessions to flourish and grow. I highly recommend her coaching services to all who are interested in raising your frequency to a higher vibration to be able to attract and focus on what you want in your life!

Julia is a fantastic coach who treats her clients with empathy and respect. She asks the questions (sometimes challenging!) that get you thinking about things in a different way, seeing links between issues
where previously you thought there were none. Over the last 9 months working with her I have become a better friend, colleague and leader.Coaching is an empowering process and Julia is an engaging and knowledgeable facilitator, a great guide to have on the journey.

Julia and I had the opportunity to meet one another while working toward our Health Coaching Certifications. It was through a conversation that it occurred to me that I wasn't entirely sure what I wanted to do with my new opportunity and how it would fit into my life. As a wife, mom of two and career woman I had decided to pursue my interest in Health Coaching but didn't quite know how to make my interest into a profession or how to juggle all of my "worlds" at one time. Our work together began after our program ended and it was thanks to Julia's coaching that I was able to see how I could make my vision into a reality and that the rest of my life wouldn't suffer as a result. Julia allowed me to express my thoughts, feeling and desires and by talking them through and setting goals I was able to take the leap into balancing a new career, maintaining an existing one and still being the wife and mother I'd always been proud to be. I have now successfully launched my practice and am pleased to help the modern woman learn how to lose weight, eat right and live well by Getting Into Her Skinny Jeans the Healthy Weigh. Julia is a wonderful coach who is encouraging, inspiring and very gifted. She understands that we all need to express our life dreams to create true happiness and health. Anyone who has the opportunity to work with her should consider themselves incredibly fortunate to know her. I can't thank her enough for helping me see that I can make my dreams and aspirations come true.

Julia is an insightful, compassionate spirit who is skillfully guiding me to rediscover my true passions in life, and learn how to live them. Her wisdom and beautiful sense of humor make this process an inviting journey that I look forward to.
Our discussions don’t just focus on ideas, hopes and dreams, but include specific markets that let me know if I am attaining my true passions. I am also learning new ways to approach the roadblocks in life that have kept me from living my dreams.
If you are someone who desires a more fulfilling life, I highly recommend Julia to guide you in finding your own “true north”. She is a rare and precious gift who feeds my soul.

I could not trade my coaching experience for anything. What I took away and accomplished through the process is worth so much to me. I have become the person I have always wanted to be , the person that I always was, but amplified. Now I am living up to my potential, I am doing things I never thought I would or could do. I first came to Julia because I wanted to work on becoming less shy. Over the course of a few months I learned more about myself, ways to tackle problems, and how to succeed at challenges. Life coaching is such a positive experience, you can’t go wrong, you possess all the answers, and what you put into the process is what you get out of it. One of the things that Julia first told me is that in life coaching you don’t get to be wrong and she was right, everything I needed was always there I just had to work on bringing it out. The more effort I put into the homework that week the more confidence I built and the more progress I made. Each week I talked with Julia and each week I had new homework. The homework challenged me to talk with strangers, develop relationships, and do new things that I was nervous about doing. Throughout it all I had fun and learned important things most important of which was that I am confident and capable of doing things that scare me. What I learned through coaching… How to start conversations with strangers and how to keep the conversation going . How to accept compliments and see in myself what others see in me. Who I am, what I value and how to live those values. How to take care of myself and that taking the time to do so isn’t selfish because I can give more to others if I first take care of myself. How to shift my perspectives so that I could look at the same problem or situation in different ways and in ways that helped me complete something challenging or give me a more positive outlook. How valued and loved I am by friends, family, coworkers etc. How being introverted is a part of who I am, how it isn’t a bad thing and it doesn’t have to keep me from also being outgoing. This experience has brought me confidence, the ability to be outgoing, and has taught me how to take care of me, how to make myself happy. As Julia told me “..when you live your values, that’s when life really gets good!”
