Filipino celebrity life coach, Myke Celis, proudly represented the Philippines at the esteemed 2024 World Coaching Congress in Mumbai, India, where he received recognition as one of the 2024 Global Gurus in Coaching by GlobalGurus.Org.
Celis was distinguished as one of the 2024 Top 100 Most Exemplary Coaching Leaders (Global), standing alongside prominent figures in the international coaching arena. His significant contribution was highlighted during a segment focused on envisioning one’s future self, aligning with this year’s event theme, “Back To The Future.” Notably, Celis was the sole Filipino invited to join an expert panel discussing diversity and inclusivity on a global scale, an advocacy close to his heart.
Reflecting on his experience, Celis expressed profound gratitude for the opportunity to represent the Philippines on a global stage.

Despite the surprise of his achievements, Celis remains committed to his #bestmeever coaching platform and continues to inspire others through his authentic approach. He encourages aspiring global leaders to persevere with genuine joy and integrity, emphasizing the importance of self-belief and continuous learning.
“Just focus on your goals and never let difficult days win. Practice what you do with genuine joy and integrity as you try to learn something new daily. And never doubt yourself because you, much like everyone else, deserve to take up space in this world. You just have to go for it,” he wrote.
As Celis prepares to attend the awarding ceremony in Bali, Indonesia, this September, he looks forward to waving the Philippine flag with immense pride, symbolizing the nation’s presence on the global coaching stage.
