About AHI Canada Life
AHI Canada Life is an Edmonton-based practice for newcomers and families who want clarity, confidence, and practical momentum in Canada.
Why this exists
Starting over can bring isolation, second-guessing, cultural pressure, career uncertainty, and family stress. Coaching gives people a calm place to sort through the next decision and build habits that hold up in real life.
Our way of working
In a big ocean, the problems can feel too large to change all at once. But one careful action can still matter deeply to the person in front of us.
That is how we approach coaching. We may not solve every pressure around starting over in Canada in one day, but we can help one person breathe, make a clear decision, and move forward with steadier ground under them.
Official Canadian context
These figures show why newcomer support needs both system awareness and individual attention.
| Official figure | What it shows | Why life coaching matters |
|---|---|---|
| 38% vs 60%of university-educated recent immigrants worked in degree-level jobs in 2016, compared with young Canadian-born workers with at least a bachelor's degreeStatistics Canada | When skilled newcomers are underused, the issue is not ability. It is credential translation, Canadian experience, networks, and the confidence hit that can come from starting below one's training. | Life coaching helps clients rebuild direction in the bridge stage: naming transferable skills, separating temporary work from personal worth, and keeping confidence alive while they move toward aligned work. |
| 61%of adult permanent residents admitted in 2015 had not used IRCC-funded settlement services by April 2017IRCC evaluation | IRCC noted some non-users may have been unaware of services, unable to access them because of barriers such as transportation or survival jobs, or faced limited local offerings. | Life coaching can fill part of that awareness gap by giving families a practical, non-clinical place to ask questions, sort priorities, and choose the next step. |
| 1 in 50Canadian children and youth aged 1 to 17 were diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder in 2019; 78.1% attending school had special education needsPublic Health Agency of Canada | Work-life balance becomes harder when families are managing paid work, settlement, school advocacy, caregiving, and special-needs planning at the same time. | Life coaching can help families notice overload early, divide responsibilities, prepare for school or service conversations, and protect routines before pressure turns into crisis. |

Our principles
Costs are shown upfront in Canadian dollars so you can decide without pressure or surprises.
If one session is enough, we will say so. If coaching is not the right fit, we will say that too.
We offer tools, questions, and structure. You stay in charge of your choices.
Leave with a plan, script, routine, or next step for your situation.
Starting over is emotional and practical at the same time. We make room for both.
Life coaching stays separate from regulated immigration advice and representation.
