About Christina

I’m Christina Douglas, a certified Cosmic Coach and your Personal Life Analyst. As an Intuitive Relationship Coach, I help lead you to listen and trust your own intuition; to feel your inner knowing, recognize your strength, and be confidently courageous to take your next steps. When it comes to your life and relationships, everything you desire and create begins with you. What we allow to continue will do so and the changes we make to follow our own hearts can lead us to some very magical places if we let them.

Why have me as your coach? I’ve personally seen and felt the benefits of having people at my side. It’s invaluable to have someone say it’s ok, that you’re ok and nothing is wrong with you. It’s comforting to have someone alongside as life presents hard challenges as well. There are days when the thoughts in our head become too much and talking to someone can help work things out. Even our fear or insecurities can have us thrown for a loop; making things harder than they have to be. So now, it’s your turn! Let me help you sort through things, find a way forward, and be in your corner cheering you on!

What’s my history? Here are the highlights (bear with me, it’s still a mouthful)! As a kid, I was quiet and did A LOT of observing. Once I got to know you, you got to know me; this is still true today. As a homeschooled Preacher’s daughter and being known as “the good girl”, I found it hard to express myself; especially if it was different than what was expected of me. I traveled the world on a few mission trips and could sense the enormous power I held as an individual and a speaker. I was taught to be a strong independent woman and to help others. I was told I could be a leader and wanted to be but wasn’t sure of what or how. After starting college in my late teens, I had a new friend who I fell for and who happened to be a girl. We began dating which I knew wouldn’t sit well with my family or their plans/expectations for my life. So, what did I do? I hid that part of myself and kept going all through college not fully sharing myself; not even with all my friends. It was a time in my life where I felt burdened and struggled to know what to do. My mental health wavered, emotions were everywhere, and my fear and insecurities held me back. Don’t get me wrong, I can look back and see there were some good things that happened too and life threw me some pretty amazing things; like someone who loved me for me, studying abroad in Germany, and a job right out of college. However, not being fully open about myself and my life felt like a thorn in my flesh that I could ignore for a bit but then would ache or hurt. I was holding onto how things were with my loved ones and people in my life but it took a toll and I couldn’t fully enjoy my life. I couldn’t be me all the time and I lied to save face. The stress of it all had my weight fluctuating and my heart heavy. I let a busy life and what is “normal” dictate what I did instead of following what truly mattered in my heart. After many years of this, I knew something had to change. I tried to change for others (even repenting at the altar and breaking up with my girlfriend) but it didn’t work. Once and for all, I decided to follow my heart. Then, with the cat out of the bag, nothing could go back to being the way it was. My family and community connections were stunned. The aftershock? My world shattered and my soul was crushed in waves over the following years. To no avail, I still tried to still hold on to my old life and make repairs to the damage done. My spiritual connections became nonexistent. I became a person who yearned for inclusion and acceptance. I was drowning in all the pain and hurt. I wanted to distract myself, be numb, and avoid facing things; running away through work (causing burnout) and substances (which took a toll on my health). I looked at myself and didn’t like what I saw. I wanted to find my place again. See me again. What did I do? Throughout my late 20’s and early 30’s, I was on a path of getting to know myself. Worked through healing, following my interests, and making steps toward what I wanted. I’ve had a very supportive wife (2016), therapist (2018), life coaches (2020-2022), and friends that have helped me over the years. I’ve spent more time doing things that hold value to me. Such as, more time in nature; communing with Mother Nature and becoming more grounded/connected. I traveled the US (2019) in an RV with my wife and pup Galaxis for five years; finding joy in the present and experiencing my adventurous side finding her bold wings. I gathered tools and resources that supported me on a daily basis. In 2021, I decided to become a coach myself and began classes to be certified in Cosmic Coaching. Then, I officially launched The Galaxis Coach on March 5, 2022! Even after the launch, it became clear to me later that I still had some releasing to do so I worked on it. I started my sobriety journey on July 5, 2022 and still to this day, have abstained from substances. As I continued being enlightened and following my heart, it led me to horses. I began caring for them (2023) and taking riding lessons (2024). I have found there’s so much to horses and another true form of therapy. They’ve created a peaceful space for me that is conducive to stimulating the depths of confidence and understanding of myself (and others). And what’s in store next? Who really knows but I can tell you that I will follow my heart 100% (and it’s sure to bring out some more of my artistically creative side).

As you can see from the above, the road to today has been long one and full of challenges. If you’re still reading and made it this far, I hope you can see that no matter what, you can take the twists and turns of life and still find your way to happiness; to joy, love, and laughter. Yep, I’ve tried things. Seeing my mistakes turned into lessons learned and my successes giving me such joy and happiness. I found encouragement and know myself on the deepest level ever. I move with my inspiration courageously and let my admiration of others reveal more to me. I learned a lot through listening more. I took responsibility for getting myself out of the depths; to be in the better place I desired and could see myself. I know more of what I don’t want as well as what I want more of. I have more peace and know that whatever comes my way, I can handle it. I’ve worked on being positive, feeling lighter in my spirit, and being brave. I freed myself. I cultivated patience, letting go of control, and learned how to ride the waves of life. Now in this moment, I can honestly say I've never felt more like myself and I truly love who I am. I've discovered we are the keys to unlocking the chains around us and fully blossoming into the gorgeous beings we already are. We can set ourselves free and instead of always fumbling through alone, it most definitely helps to have others along the way. Are you ready to set up a call with me? I am and I’m excited to meet you; to be in your corner coaching and cheering you on! Please know that no matter what, you have everything you need right now to make the life you desire so why wait any longer? Get started!
