The Greenhouse Course
Christian Life CoachTraining and Certification
Get trained to bring transformation to the world!
It's time to step into 'convergence' -
the moment where your calling and season line up with the world's needs.
It's time for you to be equipped, supported, and released.
Coach Laura Malone
If you are ready to start your personal growth journey, learn how to help anyone get transformation, and discover the amazing power of coaching:
​
The Greenhouse is the right place for you!
​
You just need the right elements in order to grow...
​
...and this world desperately needs you and your strengths to reach out to them saying,
Here's my hand,
I will walk with you.
I want you to imagine a person just going through life, doing all the things. Sure, they're getting by, but they are either confused or stuck or overwhelmed, or all of the above.
With no one to support, encourage, or guide them forward into their dreams and hopes,
they are simply surviving-
​
but definitely not thriving.
And they don't know you could help.
​
YET.
Your life experience, skills, stories, compassion, and wisdom
deserve to be shared with a world that needs your help.
If you think you might be called to be a coach and guide others,
you will need a simplified, straightforward path to doing what you're called to do,
meaning you will need your own coach to help you figure it out!
My superpower is POSSIBILITY.
My love language is SOLUTION.
My dreams are made of POWERFUL STORIES.
​
So you're in the right spot!
If you're interested in becoming a coach or growing your business,
Sterling and Stone Mentoring is here to support your dreams and calling.
​
(If you've read this far and you're a man wondering if you can get trained to be an S&S coach, the answer is YES! While the podcast and website content may speak more to women, the course is not gender-specific and I love to equip and empower male coaches as well.)

"The Greenhouse Life Coach Training Course was exactly what I needed to get the clarity of vision and encouragement I needed to start living out what God revealed was my purpose. It got me out of my own head from doing things alone- to participating in a community that cultivated my desire to help people live their best lives. Laura is super approachable; her personality makes you feel like you've known her for years; and she lovingly challenges you to pull the best out of you.
I recommend this course to any and everybody who wants to help any and everybody." ~Torance, Sterling & Stone Life Coach

You can build a fruitful coaching practice
and walk in your calling,
while remaining intimately connected to God.
So you must remain in life-union with Me, for I remain in life-union with you. For as a branch severed from the vine will not bear fruit, so your life will be fruitless unless you live your life intimately joined to Mine.
John 15:4
What they say...
"I have so enjoyed The Greenhouse Course! From the beginning I was captivated by Laura's expertise, thoroughness, and patience to share all her Godly & entrusted wisdom! This course will not only help you in your personal coaching business but also within your personal/family life. " ~ Estela, Women's Business Coach

"I'm grateful to Laura for creating space for me to explore my coaching process. As I learn, grow, and evolve it's been a blessing working with her.

Still have some niggling questions?
Answers to what's on your mind:
​​​​
-
Do I have enough (money, energy, time, courage, knowledge, hutzpah) to do this?
-
You know... maybe you don't yet. We can be honest about it. But what you do have is opportunity and possibility. You do have a choice. And when you accept that, when you make a decision and commit to it, you become more powerful and peaceful in your inner life. And when you commit with your whole YES to what God calls you to, His favor is released and what you don't have on your own shows up in partnership with Him!​​ HE alone is enough, and He is for you.
-
​
-
What is included in this training?
-
​In addition to the 12 modules of online training, you'll have access to downloadable workbooks and coaching tools with each module. *You are also invited by email to connect, get coached, and ask for feedback every other Tuesday with fellow S&S coaches in the course for the six months following your purchase. (Certification is achieved by completing 30 coaching sessions, passing a final assessment, and showing up to as many live calls as possible.)
-
​
-
How and when do I get started?​
-
Upon purchase, you'll receive a link to access your account and course. Inside, you'll have immediate access to the first three modules. The remainder of the 9 modules will 'drip' into your account biweekly from the date of purchase. This means that if you purchase on today, you'll instantly have three modules to learn from and two weeks to get set up and going before module 4 becomes available to you. Every two weeks from there you'll receive access to a new module. You can begin whenever you like, take your time to go through the course, and there's no pressure to finish everything based on the course access timeline. You're busy and I get it! I will, however, encourage you to be 'in motion' so you can leverage the six months of live coaching calls you are invited to!
-
​
-
​Is this for me if I already coach or I have a niche practice?
-
This is for you if you don't feel you were ever taught the foundations of coaching or got the practice and feedback you need to feel confident. It's also for you if you are going from niche to general in your coaching or are feeling you want to bring your clients some of the revelationary tools and strategies I will be teaching you. These foundations can help anyone in any niche if their goals and results have anything to do with being human (wink, wink).
-
​
-
Would anyone actually want me to help them?​
-
You'd be surprised! There are a lot of people out there in this wild world who'd love to have a helping hand and they aren't the people you know (something to accept early on: your friends and family ARE NOT your ideal clients). Your clients are people you likely haven't met yet and ​they will be so happy to have someone like you who is equipped and willing to walk with them.​​
-
​
-
Is it even possible people want me and my crazy, broken, imperfect life to help them?
-
Ummm... YES!!! Dig into your own story to find the golden threads of the calling on your life and learn how to help your clients do the same with amazing results. Embracing faith, walking in your true identity and purpose, and taking imperfect action will be transformative for you.
-
​
-
​Is this training ICF accredited?
-
Nope. This is meant to be a strong foundation for whatever kind of coaching you go on to do with a Christ~centered perspective. ICF is an accreditation org. you pay if you are interested in coaching positions that require an accredited certification to work for them, but you don't need it to start coaching today or to work for yourself. 98% of your clients won't even know to ask about it. I don't believe it affects your ability or calling to coach, though I do value a standard of excellence. What I DO believe in is that you are equipped with excellence and supported in your growth to ensure your confidence and success. And THAT is exactly what The Greenhouse grows. Sterling and Stone's coaches have their own Code of Ethics that our coaches are asked to align with and abide by, as well as continued education pursuits.
-
​
-
What is my time investment?
-
This program is meant to give you a strong foundation so that you can move forward quickly and with confidence in both your coaching practice and your client sessions. That said, if you move through at an action-taking pace, your investment will be around 5 hours a week including live bi-weekly training/coaching calls. This does not include practice coaching sessions that you schedule yourself if you are pursuing certification.
-
​
-
What is my financial investment?
-
The full 6-month training with certification as a Sterling & Stone Coach is only $500. You can also take advantage of payment plans because I want to make this as possible as it can be for you. I know God wants to bless you in what He is calling you to, and I trust Him to provide you with all you need, equipping you for every good thing. Certification is $100 annually or $500 lifetime.
-
​
​
I highly recommend that you first decide you want this, ask God if it's His will for you and your calling, and then make a commitment. Do this BEFORE you consider the money. If this is the right investment for you, trust God to make a way. I've seen Him do it again and again in my life and my clients' lives. Take the desires of your heart to Him and have faith for your Father's provision- this is key in life coaching!
​
​
This is an investment into your transformation and a future that will bring a huge ROI (return on investment), bring you peace and clarity, and help you co-create your story with God as an amazing coach! I have seen God provide again and again for His people when He calls them to something, so don't forget to pray and ask Him for provision to equip you for the good works you're called to. And I am praying with you too, so remember that Romans 4:21 says to be fully persuaded that what God promises... is what He plans to perform!
