ABOUT COACH KING

I'm Dr. Rodney King,founder of Coaching Philsophia. I am a certified  philosophical counselor (APPA), accredited Fellow Coach (IAPC&M) and scholar dedicated to helping people rediscover their natural capacity for flourishing. My approach to Philosophical Coaching could be described as 'Natural Wisdom.' A unique approach that combines timeless human wisdom and lived philosophy with contemporary understanding, guiding clients toward clarity, purpose, and authentic living.

​

With over two decades of experience spanning academia, martial arts instruction, and transformative coaching, I've developed a methodology that bridges wisdom traditions with modern challenges. My doctoral research in mindful-embodied leadership, combined with extensive work in nature-based therapy and the science of human flourishing, has shown me that our greatest resource lies in reconnecting with our fundamental human capacities.

​

As such my approach 'Natural Wisdom' emerged from a simple observation: our ancestors navigated life's complexities without modern self-help tools, accessing instead an intuitive understanding of how to live well. Today, I help clients rediscover this innate wisdom while developing four essential pillars of human flourishing: calmness, presence, focus and resilience.

Why Work With Me

​

Life isn't about avoiding challenges, it's about meeting them with natural wisdom and authentic purpose.

 

My coaching offers:

​

• A systematic approach to accessing your innate wisdom and capabilities

• Integration of a lived philosophical approach that is both practical, with actionable strategies

• Evidence-based methods for developing lasting resilience and well-being

• Clear pathways to translate insights into meaningful life changes

​

I'm committed to helping you create a life that resonates with your deepest truth, one where clarity replaces confusion, purpose supersedes uncertainty, and authentic living becomes natural rather than aspirational.

 

When I'm not coaching, I remain actively engaged in researching, writing and teaching about philosophy as a lived experience. My mission is to help others rediscover their fundamental capacity for flourishing in our chaotic modern world.
