Hi! I’m Kandi Leigh, the relationship coach with a twist.

I call myself a relationship genie because I help couples and singles easily let go of pain to have the relationships they crave. My clients say it feels like magic.

The best part is that the work doesn’t require hours of re-hashing their wounds over and over again, hoping that eventually the pain will go away if they just give it time or talk about it more. (That’s the definition of insanity.)

So, if you’re wondering if this is “just how it is” or if “this is all there is,” then this is your sign. There’s hope.

I know exactly what it’s like to feel like intimacy and trust are gone. I was in a marriage for 10 years before I admitted we had created unhealthy patterns that were hurting us and our kids. Ultimately, we couldn’t find the help we needed, and the marriage ended.

But, my motto is to be the person I “needed when,” so I have dedicated myself to understanding what creates authentic attraction and trust in relationships. By healing my core relationship wounds and implementing the same tools I want to teach you, I am now in a relationship that is healthy, balanced and loving. And it keeps getting better!

Clients love working with me because my methods are “outside of the box,” and I help them see things from new perspectives. There’s work involved. But we also laugh and have fun along the way. (Read a few of their love notes.)

Why working with me is different:

I’m an intuitive coach and reiki master teacher healer which means I am able to “read” the energy of my clients, transform it, and explain what’s happening to them in ways they can easily understand and relate to so that they can easily create shifts. No two relationships are exactly the same, so the guidance and tools you receive don’t come from a textbook. I am able to see the energy of relationships in a unique way, so I work with the inner guidance system of not only each partner but also of the relationship itself. My methods are definitely not “traditional,” and they work if you follow the guidance.

My and my guy’s fun “meet cute” story:

I love to dance. One night, my friend asked me if I wanted to go dancing. I said yes, but I mentioned that my inner child wanted to play and pretend it was my birthday. I brought along cupcakes, party hats, glow sticks, and a Happy Birthday wine glass. (The servers at the restaurant still remember me as the girl who pretended it was her birthday and gave them cupcakes.) 

The biggest thing I remember about that night was how alive I felt, so in a sense, maybe it was my birthday. (I love birthdays!)

As we waited for the band to start, I noticed a tall, dark-haired guy walk in surrounded by girls. But something inside me (confidence? feistiness? intuition?) said that if he was single and wanted to dance with me, he would. 

The band took a break and music continued playing “dj” style. The dance floor cleared, but I kept dancing by myself, as I often did. And then Whitney Houston’s “I Wanna Dance with Somebody” started playing. Right as the song got to the chorus, Mr. Tall, Dark and Handsome started dancing with me. We were the only two people on the dance floor. The moment felt magnetic, like nothing could have stopped us from dancing together. Four years after that magical night, we’re still dancing together. My favorite is when we dance in the kitchen.
