Stop granting your dreams a slow death.

It’s time to rip the band-aid of mediocrity off of your life and flip the bird to whatever is holding you back.

Yes, it is that deep.

“Someday” is an illusion.

As a double certified, liberatory life coach and retreat host, I’m here to help you live a life you love so you have fewer regrets when you die.

Let’s get going! Here’s the ways to work with me.

  • Coaching for Your Inner Bad Ass

    Where have you shrunk your life so that others can accept, digest, or respect it?

    It’s time to let your inner bad ass use her voice. Getting to know her is getting to know your truth on a whole new level.

  • Dead Serious Retreats

    From tech-free, hobbit-like dopamine reset retreats to scary movie sleepovers that help us cope with our own mortality, these retreats are unlike any other.

    You might think I’m joking about the kinds of retreats I host, but I’m Dead Serious.

  • Weird and Wild Workshops

    From “Freaky Finances” to “Get in Bitch, We’re Building Our Dream Lives,” my workshops are never boring and always ready to change your life.

The world is full of things that hold us back and keep us small. Don’t let yourself be one of them.

It’s time to dream up your most juicy and delicious life, in its most dynamic and authentic form.

Working with me, you can expect bold but loving momentum that honors who you are, who you’re becoming, and where you are coming from.

Testimonials

  • "This was my first professional coaching experience. I was in a fragmented place where I struggled to even share what I needed and what my goals were. Cecily had unconditional positive regard and support for my life. She was in the trenches with me to help me and helped me find my way."

    —Maile B., Client 2024-2025

  • "I am at a real flux moment in my life and am unsure where to turn next with my career. Cecily's support in thinking through my priorities, non-negotiables, interests, needs, etc. has brought a lot of things to the surface that are a helpful roadmap for me as I look ahead."

    —2022 Client (Anonymity requested due to job)

Hi! I’m Cecily Engelhart.

I'm a double certified coach, retreat host, your dream life’s hype chick.

If you’re feeling burnt out, bored, or stuck within your current life, I’m here to help you cultivate a life that excites, invigorates, and delights you.

Helping my clients find their most aligned, abundant purpose within the world is my calling.

Since launching my company in 2023, I’ve helped hundreds of clients pull their dream lives closer. That is because I know their dream lives are rich medicine for both themselves and the world around them.

Working for over 20 years across a wide range of sectors gave me an abundant appreciation for how there are all kinds of ways to contribute to the world and all kinds of ways to curate a life you love.

I am a cis gender, able bodied woman of Ihanktonwan Dakota, Oglala Lakota, and European settler descent (including Irish, French, German, and English). I live the rural life on the Ihanktonwan Nation in South Dakota with my family in a 100+ year old house we are slowly (but surely) restoring.

When I'm not coaching or hosting retreats, I can be found immersed in my art, cooking with my family, diggin in the garden, playing games, watching movies, making yet another spreadsheet, swinging in my hammock, or swimming in the Missouri River.

I’m currently in the process of penning my first book and in the early development stages of my Native travel show.
