Amy Rodquist, MA
Hello & Welcome
I'm Amy Rodquist, a certified holistic health coach, wellness strategist, and former international aid worker. I help people live, lead, and flourish from the center. My passion is supporting those who do good in the world to also be well in the world.
Coaching with me is a meeting of skill and soul, grounded in neuroscience and somatic wisdom and shaped by compassionate, honest conversation. Clients have described me as a lightning bolt of clarity and a listener beneath the words.
In our work together, you strengthen your ability to regulate your nervous system and respond to change, especially during midlife and menopause, when sleep, energy, and identity are shifting.
This is coaching as both science and sanctuary, a partnership that helps you trust your own wisdom and move forward with steadiness, joy, and capacity.
How I Coach
Most people arrive expecting advice. What they discover instead is a space to ask the kind of questions that open new doors to deeper clarity, courage, and a calm knowing beneath the noise.
Together, we explore what matters most, expand what’s possible, and create practical pathways where you’ve felt stuck.
My work blends evidence-based tools with the art of deep presence, drawing from:
-
Internal Family Systems (IFS) Coaching
-
Mindful Self-Compassion
-
Habit Formation & Design
-
Somatic Experiencing
-
Neuroscience and well-being research
-
Personalized rituals and practices that bring more meaning to everyday life
My Training
My work is rooted in both science and soul. I hold a Master’s degree in Holistic Health Education from St. Catherine University, where I learned to see well-being through a truly whole-person lens. I am a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach with advanced training in menopause support, and an Aromatherapist through the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy.
Since 2010, I’ve coached more than 750 clients across the U.S. and abroad. I've partnered with leaders in higher education, NGOs & nonprofit sectors.
Whether one-on-one, facilitating events, or training with groups, I bring a blend of academic rigor and curiosity to help people reconnect with their wisdom, vitality, and purpose.
Specialty Areas
My work goes beyond surface-level wellness tips. Together, we’ll listen for the deeper wisdom shaping your choices and design practical, centered steps forward.
I specialize in:
-
Supporting bodies through the hormonal transitions of perimenopause and menopause with evidence-based tools for sleep, mood, energy, and metabolic health.
-
Creating sustainable habits that help the nervous system settle, allowing calm, focus, and ease to emerge.
-
Clarifying your core values and designing ways to live them at work and in life.
-
Transforming your sleep through research-based tools that help you rest deeply and wake restored.
-
Learning self-coaching practices to move through moments of self-criticism, procrastination, and overwhelm with compassion and clarity.
-
Strengthening boundaries that protect your time, energy, and sense of purpose.
This is coaching as both science and soul work - - where growth feels grounded and change feels like coming home to yourself.
In Hindu mythology, there is the concept of the third eye which represents perception beyond ordinary sight. My conversations with Amy lead me to the opening of my third eye. Amy's patient listening and constant compassion has allowed me greater understanding of myself and those around me in examining recurring themes of love, meaning, chaos, loss, and life.
