You’re here because you care about people, and your conversations matter.
But even the most dedicated leaders, parents, and professionals can feel unsure, stuck, or frustrated when their best advice doesn’t land or their connections feel surface-level.
I’m Abigail Doust, founder of Equipping for Impact, and I help people learn the coaching skills that transform everyday conversations into meaningful, powerful connections.

My journey started with the unexpected intersection of education, pastoral care, and professional coaching. I’ve spent years teaching, directing, leading, and walking with people through real-life complexities. Over time, I saw the same truth again and again:
People don’t need more advice, they need conversations that help them discover their own next steps.
That truth is what launched Equipping for Impact.
My mission is simple and deeply personal:
to equip you with the confidence and competence to navigate authentic conversations that deepen relationships and expand your impact, professionally and personally.
Everything I teach is practical, interactive, and grounded in real coaching experience. My background in communications education helps me make learning accessible; my years in pastoral care and nonprofit coaching help me connect with people in the messy, emotional places; and my professional training as an ACC-level coach, CPLC, and DISC consultant equips me to guide you with clarity.
This blend of teaching, shepherding, and coaching allows me to help:
Professionals who want to lead conversations that create traction, not resistance
Leaders and advisors who want clients to follow through
Parents who want deeper, healthier relationships with their teens and adult children
Teams who want to communicate with more trust and less tension
The biggest transformation my clients experience is this:
They walk away knowing how to communicate in a way that brings clarity, connection, and lasting change without pressure, fixing, or force.
These skills don’t just shift a moment. They reshape relationships.
At Equipping for Impact, everything begins with meaningful work. We believe conversations have the power to change relationships, families, businesses, and communities.
We value authenticity. Growth happens through honest reflection, compassionate curiosity, and real-life practice. It is not about performing or pretending.
We believe excellence matters. You deserve support that is organized, thoughtful, interactive, and practical. Our training is created to be accessible and impactful rather than overwhelming or theoretical.
We value individualization. Every person is created uniquely, learns differently, and grows at their own pace. Effective coaching honors the strengths and experiences each person brings to the table.
