About Amy

Amy Pyle is a professional life coach, trained and certified through Martha Beck’s Wayfinder Program.

A seeker from a young age with a persistent curiosity about how we can human better, Amy set out from the Midwest to NYC after college to work as community organizer. She was in pursuit of adventure, finding herself, and helping build a more just world. After nearly two decades in New York, primarily helping others birth new chapters as a book editor and birth doula, and birthing her own two children into the world, Amy said goodbye to the big city hustle and headed to more space and sunshine in LA. 

In 2022, she started her life coach practice, supporting people ready to make shifts at any stage of life. She herself was making major changes at that time: moving coasts, getting divorced, and coming out (again) as queer. This period was a complete reshaping of her personal and professional lives.  The life coaching she was working with during these transformations directed her to strip away roles that no longer fit through tailored mind and body modalities.  Around this time, driving to school pickup, Amy had an epiphany: helping people find and live their truths, just as she was doing in her own life, was her next iteration of soul work. It was time for her doula business to evolve into a life coach practice.

Her own personal reawakenings inspire her practice, which now reaches people going through transformations in many intersecting areas of life. From parenting and creativity to career and love, her coaching helps people usher in new paths rooted in self-love, agency and authenticity.

When not in session, Amy enjoys urban hikes, a corner seat at the cafe, and the exhale of unscheduled time. She lives on the east side of LA with her children and cat.
