Our Founder

Frank Macri is the Founder of Thriving Coach Academy. He has trained and mentored thousands of individuals looking to start coaching practices. He is also the host of the Life Coaching Secrets podcast.

When he started his own journey as a coach a decade ago, Frank did not have any business experience or a large online following. He grew up struggling with confidence issues and insecurity about the way his voice sounded. He had no idea how to become more confident until he picked up a book on psychology. At that point, he felt called to pursue a career in mental health.

After graduating from Boston University with a degree in psychology, Frank realized that becoming a therapist would limit him to only treat mental illness. It wasn’t until Frank did research online that he discovered life coaching as a career path.

Soon after, Frank enrolled in a training to become a Certified Professional Coach, and the rest is history. In the process of becoming a coach, Frank overcame all his confidence issues and even found a passion for public speaking. Frank took his life coaching business from zero to $1M, making him one of the most successful coaches in the industry.

At this point, people started to ask Frank how he got into coaching. Driven by his passion for empowering others to transform their lives and careers, Frank poured all his experience, knowledge, and expertise into a comprehensive coach training program that has become the go-to resource for aspiring coaches worldwide.

One of the biggest problems Frank noticed in other coaching schools is that they were teaching outdated and ineffective business strategies. He wanted to create a modern coach training program that prepared coaches to market themselves and build successful businesses.

Thriving Coach Academy has developed into an incredible community of coaches who are making a difference in the world. Frank and his team's goal is to empower our graduates to make a meaningful impact in the lives of their clients while achieving financial success and independence.
