Monica Connolly delivers powerful storytelling, faith-rooted wisdom, trauma-informed insight, and identity-centered coaching to every stage she steps onto.

Meet Monica
For years, Monica lived in survival mode while carrying the weight of caregiving, chronic illness, trauma, emotional eating, and the pressure to stay strong for everyone else. She looked capable on the outside but felt disconnected and overwhelmed on the inside.
Through holistic healing and nervous system restoration, she rebuilt her health, reclaimed her identity, and reconnected with the woman she was created to be. Now 150 pounds lighter, emotionally steady, and aligned with her purpose, she helps faith-centered women who no longer feel like themselves find clarity, resilience, and confidence again.
Monica is a Certified Master Life Coach, Certified Holistic Health Coach, and a Trauma-Informed Coach with advanced training in nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, mindset transformation, and purpose alignment. She is the creator of The THRIVE Blueprint™, her signature identity and purpose restoration framework built on The 7 Pillars of Holistic Health and her 3 C’s of Transformation: Clarity, Confidence, and Consistency.
As the host of the Unshakeable Belief podcast, she guides women through faith-rooted, identity-centered transformation that begins in the body and rises into purpose.
“You were made for more. You were never meant to stay buried beneath the weight you have carried.”
