Your Guide

Monika Reed is a Wellness Life Coach based in Monterey, California.

Monika Reed

Monika is more than a life coach — she’s a compassionate guide, intuitive healer, and someone who has walked through profound personal loss and deep emotional pain… and emerged with a purpose: to help others rise from their own life storms and reclaim what’s possible.

The vision for Shores of the Soul was born from Monika’s own healing journey — one marked by severe depression, anxiety, PTSD, and chronic illness caused by years of unrelenting stress. But her greatest heartbreak came with the loss of her son — a grief that shook her to the core and ultimately led her to a deeper level of healing, surrender, and spiritual awakening.

Through her own path of transformation, Monika discovered not just relief, but a calling: to walk alongside others as they move through life’s most difficult transitions — divorce, grief, identity shifts, burnout, and the aching question of “What now?”

She brings her life knowledge, deep empathy, and training in a wide range of healing modalities — including massage therapy, acupressure, reflexology, reiki, neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), the Law of Attraction, and shamanic energy practices. Monika holds a BA in Psychology, is certified as a Life Coach, NLP and Reiki practitioner, and has trained extensively in trauma healing, emotional recovery, and leadership development.

Monika doesn’t just teach transformation — she lives it. She is committed to a healthy, balanced lifestyle that nourishes mind, body, and soul, and she brings that same holistic, heart-led approach to every person she serves.

If you're ready to let go of what’s been weighing you down and step into a lighter, more empowered version of yourself — Monika is here to walk beside you.

Because healing is possible. Peace is possible. And the life you dream of? It’s still within reach.

Monika would love to be your guide and help you discover your new path at the shore of your life.
