Hi there! I’m Raele (pronounced “Ra-yell”) and it’s great to connect with you. I’m a twice-certified communication coach, content creator, and the founder of Well With Raele Coaching. I help women build their speaking skills and social confidence, particularly those stuck in the role of the perpetual “nice girl.”
Why I Became a Coach
As a first-generation Armenian American from a blended family, I understand what it’s like to navigate spaces where you feel different, and how that often leads to overperforming just to belong. I became hyper aware of social dynamics early—managing complex family situations, reading rooms to know how to show up, and learning to code-switch across different circles. I thought I was just adapting, but I was actually performing.
I spent years people-pleasing, over-explaining, and shrinking myself to make others comfortable. It wasn’t until I had my own reckoning with the “nice girl” role that I realized how much energy I was wasting trying to belong, overdeliver, and be understood. Breaking free from that pattern changed everything—and it’s exactly what I now help my clients do.
I specialize in the interpersonal moments that can be uncomfortable or catch women off-guard: from boundary-crossing questions and culturally loaded conversations to everyday interactions like accepting a compliment or exiting a conversation. My 4-part approach addresses mindset, what to say, how to say it, and how to handle what comes next, equipping clients with practical tools they can use in the moment to feel grounded and capable in any interaction, without the exhausting performance.
My Work
I work with individuals through 1:1 coaching, lead 6-week group intensives on social confidence and boundary-setting, and facilitate workshops for corporate teams and nonprofits. My community of over 700,000 followers across Instagram and TikTok is where I share relatable scenarios, practical scripts, and communication strategies for women who want to move from performative niceness to genuine confidence. I’ve been featured in TIME, Newsweek, Apartment Therapy, Daily Mail, and more.
Credentials & Background
I obtained my coaching certification from the Coach Training Alliance (CTA) in January 2021 through a comprehensive program that is accredited with the International Coaching Federation, which I am also a proud member of. I received a second coaching certification from 3V Communications in 2025. I’m an alumna of Pace University and live in New Jersey with my husband and two young boys.
