Jacqueline Hurst is a renowned thought leader and educator in the field of personal development and self-mastery. Since founding The Life Class in 2014, she has dedicated herself to helping individuals understand their own minds, develop emotional intelligence, and make conscious decisions that transform their lives.
I found The Life Class to be genuinely impactful both inspiring and, at times, truly transformative. What stood out to me was how practical and focused it is; rather than spending time on theory, the course quickly gets into the real, meaningful work.
I looked forward to our weekly sessions they struck the perfect balance between honesty, challenge, and support. At times they pushed me well outside my comfort zone, but always in a way that felt safe and constructive.
I joined the course wanting to invest in my own personal development, and it came at exactly the right time in my life. The tools I’ve gained are simple yet incredibly effective in helping me better manage my thinking and approach situations with greater clarity and intention.
This has had a noticeable impact not only on my personal relationships with my friends and familyu2014but also in my professional life, particularly in how I engage with colleagues and lead my team.
If you’re looking for a course that is honest, thought-provoking, and delivered in a supportive environmentu2014one that challenges you while equipping you with practical tools for growthu2014The Life Class is absolutely worth it.

I really wanted to learn more about Life Coaching as I wanted to be a Life Coach and so I decided to join The Life Class. I loved it from Day One. I was learning again which I never thought heading to 50 I would be doing, I was calmer, happier and in control of my life again. The one thing that will stick with me is as I went through the course, how clever it was and how it naturally unravelled each week, making more and more sense as we gained more and more information. So in the end it all made complete sense. Jacqueline had taught and trained us to really figure this out for ourselves and carefully provided the props to get us there. I am in awe of her and she will always be an inspiration for me. I am now a certified Life Coach and I feel great. I would whole heartedly give my backing to anyone who is considering The Life Class. I now have all the right tools to stride forward and help others to do the same. I can’t Thank Jacqueline and The Life Class enough.

I recently completed the life class with Jacqueline, and I am so pleased that I did it. The course was challenging in unexpected ways, but I felt supported throughout the experience and I am excited to be launching this new part of my business. Thank you so much Jacqueline.

It’s hard to put into words, but something really changed for me during this course. I feel more grounded, more aware and much more positive about my life.
This course completely changed how I understand my own mind. I feel calmer, clearer and far more in control of how I respond to things in my life. It’s been a real shift.
It gave me clarity I didn’t even realise I was missing. Everything feels simpler, calmer and far more intentional now.
The Life Class honestly changed my life. I learnt tools that helped me navigate my way through the challenges I have encountered in everyday life, helped me understand myself a lot better and helped me in every area of life from career to relationships. Not only that, but I have fallen in love with coaching and I’ve experienced how amazing it is not only to help other people, but understand how coaching other people can help you coach yourself more efficiently. I’ve also been able to work, study and practice around my busy work schedule which has been fantastic. In short – it’s amazing!

It’s rare to find something that actually changes how you experience your day-to-day life. This did.
I didn’t realise how much my thinking was holding me back until I did this course. The tools are simple but incredibly effective. I use them every day.
Working with Jacqueline as my teacher was both a pleasure and an extremely valuable experience.
The live coaching calls were particularly impactful: being taught while coaching allowed me to immediately apply the tools and receive real-time, practical feedback. Jacqueline is highly attentive, deeply engaged, and provides very insightful guidance.
The materials, especially the audio recordings of her own coaching sessions, were also a great source of learning.
This training has strengthened both my coaching practice and my personal development. I highly recommend her program.

I did such a lot of research into online Life Coaching courses before I settled on The Life Class with Jacqueline Hurst. I chose the course because it was a lot more in-depth than some of the others, and the direct communication with Jacqueline and other course students allowed me to ask as many questions as I needed to. I really enjoyed the weekly calls and the practice sessions with other students, which helped to develop our hands-on skills a lot quicker than if we were just following and completing modules. The tests were thorough and the feedback from Jacqueline was fantastic. Since completing the course I have implemented my learnings into my HR role and I am really confident to help those around me. This is an amazing course and I would highly recommend it if you want to become a Life Coach or simply just to learn a tonne of things about yourself.

What I loved most was how practical it is. This isn’t just theoryu2014you actually learn how to shift your thinking in real life.
I came into this feeling overwhelmed and stuck, and I’ve come out feeling lighter, more confident and more in control. It’s been a really powerful experience.
Training as a life coach through The Life Class has been completely life changing. What I learnt from The Life Class now forms the foundation of my own coaching practice and the work I do with my clients every day. I’m incredibly grateful to be able to pass on what I’ve learnt and support my clients in changing their lives by changing the way they think and what they believe is possible for them.

There’s a quiet confidence I have now that I didn’t have before. I understand my mind in a way that’s changed everything.
The Foundation Course gave me something I hadn’t found anywhere elseu2014clarity. I feel like I finally understand why I think the way I do, and how to change it.
This wasn’t just a course, it was a shift. The way I think, respond and move through life feels completely different.
I feel more in control of myself than I ever have. Not in a forced wayu2014just a natural understanding of how to think differently.
Learn to understand your thoughts and patterns. Build the skills to coach others or yourself towards lasting change.
Coaching is an unregulated industry. There is no legal governing body, no official licensing system, and no requirement to be “accredited” in order to practise.
Organisations such as the AC and ICF are independent, voluntary bodies—not regulatory authorities. Their frameworks are based on generic, standardised training models, not necessarily real-world effectiveness.
At The Life Class, we have chosen not to follow that route.
The Certified Life Coach Course is built on over 20 years of hands-on experience, working with thousands of clients globally and delivering real, measurable results. It teaches you how the mind actually works—and how to apply that understanding with clarity and precision.
Many accreditation-based courses run for 9–12 months or more, with a heavy focus on ticking boxes and logging hours. Length does not equal depth, and time spent does not create skill. These models prioritise structure over substance.
Our approach is different. The training is focused, immersive, and designed to develop real capability—quickly and effectively. You are not learning theory for the sake of certification. You are learning how to think, how behaviour works, and how to apply it in a way that creates real change.
The Life Class is an independent school with its own proven methodology. It is not affiliated with external coaching organisations—because it doesn’t need to be. The results, the experience, and the standard of training speak for themselves.
There is no legal requirement to be “accredited” in order to obtain insurance – despite what some training providers claim.
Coaching is an unregulated industry, and professional insurance is widely available without being accredited by a specific organisation. Insurers assess risk based on the nature of your work, not which training provider you have studied with.
Many coaches operate fully insured through standard professional indemnity and public liability policies, without any affiliation to external accrediting bodies. As with any profession, it is the responsibility of the individual to ensure they have the appropriate cover in place for how they choose to practise.
Many larger training providers rely on long, drawn-out programmes, months of study, fixed frameworks, generic exercises and ongoing payment models. While this may suit some, it doesn’t always lead to real understanding or practical ability.
At The Life Class, the approach is different.
The training is personal, immersive, direct, and built to develop real confidence and capability – without unnecessary length or complexity. It’s based on over 20 years of hands-on experience, working with thousands of clients globally, and refined into a clear, proven methodology.
This isn’t about time spent.
It’s about what you learn and how well you can apply it.
