About Brandi L. Smith
MS, PCC, BCC, CTIC
I am a strengths-based, trauma-informed certified coach dedicated to helping individuals navigate life and career transitions with clarity, confidence, and purpose. Every person is unique, and their goals and circumstances steer the coaching process. My approach is rooted in human development, systems thinking, and the belief that change is a process.
I got my start in family life and parent coaching, and through those experiences, I evolved to support people with integrating life and work experiences. With over a decade of coaching experience and formal training since 2017, I bring a deep understanding of personal and professional development to my work.
Certified Coach based in Bloomington, IN
I hold an MS in Applied Health Science with a specialization in Human Development and Family Studies, and I’m a:
✔ Board Certified Career Coach (BCC)
✔ International Coaching Federation Professional Certified Coach (PCC)
✔ Trauma-Informed Certified Coach (TICC)
✔ Certified in Gallup CliftonStrengths and other assessments used in career coaching
What I Do
I coach where life and work meet, helping clients navigate:
✔ Career transitions and leadership growth
✔ Life-work balance and personal development
✔ Self-awareness, confidence, and decision-making
Using a mix of self-inquiry, strategic coaching, and experiential exercises, I help clients find clarity, build confidence, and take meaningful action toward their goals.
Why I Coach
I believe the world changes when people grow.
Coaching isn’t just about problem-solving—it’s about learning to see yourself or a situation in a new way, aligning with what truly matters, and creating a sustainable path forward in life.
When we step into who we are meant to be, we positively impact not just ourselves, but also our families, workplaces, and communities.
