Bio

I’m Coach Darcel Spears and I help mothers of children on the autism spectrum, shift from burnout and overwhelm to inner calm, vitality, and empowered presence.

My journey began long before I ever called myself a coach. As a mother navigating my son’s autism diagnosis, I was thrown into a world of uncertainty, judgment, and exhaustion. I tried to fix everything — to hold it all together — until I finally learned that true healing doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from being more present, grounded, and attuned to the energy within and around us.

That realization became the foundation for my life’s work. Drawing on my background in engineering, graduating from the Institute of Woman-Centered Coaching, Training & Leadership, and my studies in energy sound medicine, reiki, and reconnective healing, I now guide parents to release chronic stress, build peaceful connection with their children, and cultivate environments where both can thrive.

Through my signature program “Burnout to Vitality: Shifting from Chronic Stress to Inner Calm,” I support parents in transforming survival mode into soulful resilience. My workshops — such as “The Power of Pause”  — I invite participants to experience calm through sound, vibration, and breath, helping them reconnect with their natural rhythm and restore balance.

I believe that every parent and every child holds a unique frequency — and when we learn to listen and align with it, we open the door to peace, vitality, and possibility.

Let’s imagine what’s possible when you and your child are both grounded in calm energy.

Your Coach 

Darcel Spears is a coach for moms of children with autism and a mother to a young man on the spectrum. Her 26-year journey from parenting to coaching has led to profound growth—for both her and her son—in ways she never expected. Before becoming a parent, Darcel’s career as an engineer instilled in her a strong focus on goal setting and strategy. However, she soon realized that the “one-size-fits-all” mentality so prevalent in American culture—especially in parenting—was not only limiting but also harmful to both herself and her child. Seeking a new path, she became a graduate of the Institute of Woman-Centered Coaching and deepened her studies in mindfulness, reiki, and energy sound wellness. Through this journey, she discovered the power of self-awareness and inner transformation, allowing her and her son to evolve beyond societal expectations. Now, as Coach Darcel, she moms of children with autism to shift from burnout to inner calm, regain their power and help their autistic child to do the same.
