Martish S. James

Founder of Compelling Vision and Creator of the R.I.S.E. Life Coaching Program

Martish James has spent over two decades walking alongside others through some of life’s most difficult—and defining—moments. Her background spans trauma-informed care, addiction recovery support, crisis intervention, and personal development. But beyond her experience, what truly sets Martish apart is the way she shows up—with humility, empathy, and a deep belief that real change begins when we feel safe, heard, and understood. As someone who has personally faced and overcome significant life challenges, Martish brings more than credentials to her coaching—she brings lived experience and lasting insight. She knows what it’s like to carry the weight of everyone else’s needs, to feel stuck in survival mode, and to quietly wonder if things will ever shift. That’s exactly why she created the R.I.S.E. Life Coaching Program. Her approach blends practical tools, honest conversations, and deep compassion. She meets clients where they are—without judgment or pretense—and helps them take the next step forward with clarity and confidence. Because sometimes, the only thing you need to rise is to release what’s been weighing you down... a weight you were never meant to carry. And Martish is here to help you do exactly that.
