Hi, I’m Kim Griffith

Founder of The WAVE Process, Board-Certified Life and Wellness Coach, with a Master’s Degree in Transpersonal Studies/Psychology.

I have personally experienced the struggles of overcoming emotional triggers and limiting patterns holding me back from success.

Through my own personal journey, I discovered the missing ingredient to success is connection. I realized that triggers can derail teamwork, decision-making, and success, but they can also be the perfect gateway to reconnect within, and with others. This led me to the creation of The WAVE Process®, a scientific blueprint for moving from triggers and disconnection to connection and empowerment. I’ve witnessed this process increase emotional intelligence, motivation, communication, and decision-making, while providing people with the ability to build healthy relationships and experience authentic well-being and success.

Hi, I’m Dr. Meg Hanshaw

PhD. Certified WAVE Coach & Facilitator and Certified Life and Wellness Inventory Coach

During my almost 30 year career of educating, working in corporate wellness and owning a Peak Performance business, I have supported all ages in understanding and living a healthy, empower, purposeful life. Through my expertise in sports psychology I was able to transform several losing sports teams into stellar success stories.

Fascinated by the WAVE Process®  in creating connection and empowerment, I have built the foundational research for a long-term study on the impact of the WAVE Process® in the education system to help teachers and kids learn and thrive at i.b.mee, an innovational educational non profit organization located in Asheville, NC, the central hub of the W.E.L.L. Kids Now® Movement and the Empowerment Education Revolution.

The WAVE Institute is a coaching company dedicated to helping individuals, couples, families and businesses discover how to fully live, love, learn and lead in all areas of life.

The WAVE Institute began as a platform to share the unique and empowering WAVE Process® that founder, Kim Griffith developed in 2012. Today, the Institute offers talks and workshops worldwide to share The WAVE Process and the measurable difference it can make in every aspect of life. The WAVE Institute also offers personal and group coaching to help guide organizations to the next level. 

Hi, I’m Lauren Vosbein

CPCC, ACC, Certified WAVE Coach & Facilitator

The WAVE works. Full stop. It’s beautiful, it’s powerful, and it unwinds years of self-sabotaging patterns we’ve grown to internalize as truth over time. As a certified Co-Active coach trained in Positive Intelligence, I watch the WAVE weave a myriad of knowledge and skill into a compressed funnel of efficiency that breeds not only progress but true transformation. Did I mention it works? Business leaders, entrepreneurs, or anyone with a growth-mindset thrive using WAVE communication, forging new layers of personal discovery and connected leadership they never thought possible. That right there is why I WAVE. Not just to help people succeed but to thrive.

I foster fun containers for clients - you’re in safe hands AND we’re having a good time - to explore and discover. The goal for me is that our conversation is alive. Breathing. That you leave enlarged, deepened, or enlightened with a little more relief or inner knowing than you had going in and that you take away realistic steps towards where it is you really want to go. Because fun fact: you can absolutely get there.

Hi, I’m Molly Bonner

WAVE Certified Coach and Facilitator, Trained in Co-Active Coaching

My dream is to help people connect to their core self, define what they really want, remove the barriers that stop them and be empowered to live the life they really want.

The Wave Process was the missing piece that completed my coach training. It is a efficient tool that enables me to go deeper with clients when they have limiting beliefs that keep them stuck in unwanted patterns. I have witnessed the power of how it works to change their nervous system to create measurable and sustainable change.
