Charlie Roach, Transformation Coach
1. Who is Charlie Roach?
I’m a Transformation Coach, Change Catalyst, Writer, and Speaker. I work in that unique space where insight and embodiment come together. I help women who know something needs to change but are unsure how to make that shift without completely uprooting their lives. My work is about supporting identity-level transformation—not just surface solutions. It’s about creating real, grounded change that doesn’t have to look perfect to be powerful.
2. What inspired you to step into the work you do today, and what was the turning point that shaped your path?
The short answer is lived experience. There was a long season when, despite what looked like accomplishment and success, I was quietly abandoning myself. I was over-functioning, carrying shame that wasn’t mine, and mistaking self-sacrifice for self-worth. The turning points weren’t always dramatic; some were subtle, but searing. The real shift came when I understood that intellectual insight does not create embodied change. I stopped trying to fix myself and started learning how to sit with the discomfort. That became the foundation for my work and how I now support others in their transformations.
3. How do you describe your work at Epiphany Wellbeing in a way that truly reflects the transformation you help people achieve?
Epiphany Wellbeing exists to help women with identity-level transformation. I’m not here to help them gain surface-level confidence or productivity upgrades. I’m here to support them in moving from over-functioning to self-trust. It’s about guiding women across the bridge between insight and embodiment, where what they know truly becomes how they live.
4. Who are the people you are most passionate about helping, and what are they usually struggling with when they find you?
I work with emotionally intelligent, capable women who seem to have it together on the outside but feel unmoored inside. Many of them were parentified early—becoming the “fixer” or “responsible one” at a young age. They often arrive at a crossroads, whether that’s midlife, burnout, or a career transition, with a deep sense of knowing what needs to change but feeling stuck on how to embody it. They’ve done the courses, read the books, and listened to the podcasts—but still quietly wonder, “What’s wrong with me?” The truth is, nothing is wrong with them. They’re evolving. I’m determined to make their path easier by offering them what I wish had been offered to me years ago.
5. What do you believe is the root cause behind the challenges your clients keep repeating before working with you?
It’s chronic self-abandonment disguised as responsibility. Their identity has been shaped from the outside in. They learned early to be strong, reliable, and composed, but over time that role becomes who they think they are. They’ve outsourced authority, over-functioned, and carried shame that wasn’t theirs. It’s only when someone helps them pause long enough to see this pattern that real change begins. Seeing it is the start of true choice.
6. How is your approach different from traditional therapy, coaching, or wellbeing methods people may have tried before?
My approach integrates systems thinking with deep soul work. Traditional methods often focus on thinking differently. I focus on becoming differently. I combine emotional intelligence, embodiment practices, nervous-system awareness, adult development theory, and strategic structure. My method doesn’t rush insight, bypass discomfort, or sell urgency. It values coherence over performative change. It honors each woman’s perspective, wisdom, and self-insight, allowing the transformation to unfold in a sustainable, grounded way.
