Cole Baker-Bagwell

I'm Cole Baker-Bagwell, an ICF Certified Life Coach specialized in Mindset Coaching. I have 30+ years experience as a mindfulness practitioner and I hold certifications as a Master Certified Professional Coach and Certified MBSR Workplace Facilitator. I'm actively pursuing my certification in Mindfulness Based Cancer Recovery and a Master Reiki designation from Duke Integrative Health because I believe in the immense power we have to heal ourselves and change our lives from the inside out.

My coaching methodology is grounded in mind-body science, meditation, mindfulness, and somatic practice. I help people understand themselves and their minds, optimize the mind-body connection, and activate the power of the vagus nerve to restore balance to their nervous system. This internal work deepens self-awareness, strengthens clarity and confidence, and improves holistic well-being and overall quality of life.

I coach a wide range of people from artists and government executives to psychologists and tech leaders from firms including Amazon, Cisco, Nvidia, and Red Hat.

Prior to coaching, I spent two decades in enterprise technology working at the intersection of human potential and technology transformation. I held roles in sales, strategy, and leadership, supporting clients such as Apple, Visa, and JP Morgan, served as a trusted advisor to senior leaders, and coached go-to-market teams.

Outside of coaching, I'm a proud Momma, the writer behind two Substack publications: Minds Meet Machines and Of Human Importance, the host of She Grabs The Mic podcast, a speaker, and an active voice on staying human in the AI era.

I offer virtual coaching services across the U.S. and onsite coaching services in Raleigh, N.C.
