What Is Life Coach Insurance?
Who Needs Life Coach Liability Insurance?
The short answer is: Yes! All life coaches need general and professional liability insurance. You’ll have peace of mind knowing your business is protected against third-party claims of property damage, injuries, and more.
You can also add Equipment and Supplies Coverage (Inland Marine) to protect the business tools and equipment you use during your sessions. If you store client info online, Cyber Liability coverage can step in to cover costs if hackers steal your customers’ personal data.
What Are the Risks of Being a Life Coach?
Life coach liability insurance is great for risks such as:
- Someone getting injured in your office
- Accidentally damaging furniture or artwork at a venue where you’re speaking or coaching
- Someone claiming you gave poor advice
These are just some of the things that can go wrong.
What Types of Insurance Do Life Coaches Need?
Here’s a brief overview of the type of insurance you need as a life coach:
- General Liability
- Professional Liability (aka Errors and Omissions)
- Products-Completed Operations
- Damage to Rented Premises
- Personal and Advertising Injury
Insurance Canopy offers these coverages as optional add-ons for your policy.
- Cyber Liability (Data Theft Protection)
- Tools and Equipment Coverage (Inland Marine)

What’s Covered in Life Coach Insurance?

General Liability Coverage
Protect yourself from the cost of third-party injury and property damage claims with general liability insurance.
Imagine this: Your client is stressed and starts pacing during a session. They trip on the edge of your desk, resulting in severely bruised toes—and expensive medical bills.
With general liability coverage, your out-of-pocket cost on these claims could be mitigated or even eliminated.

Professional Liability Coverage (aka Errors and Omissions)
Protect yourself from the cost of claims that result from the advice and coaching you give as part of your business operations.
Professional liability coverage can protect you from expensive claims, such as a client who claims you gave them the wrong counsel or damaged their relationship with their spouse, boss, or colleagues.

Products-Completed Operations Coverage
This coverage can protect you when someone isn’t happy with the services you provided to them.
For example, even if you give people great advice, they might come back to you saying your coaching didn’t work for them and decide to sue you for damages.

Cyber Liability Coverage
Cyber crimes, hacking, and data breaches are real—and could happen to your business.
Add Cyber Liability to your policy if you store sensitive client information online, like payment methods, session records, or personal data.

Damage to Premises Rented to You
Also called Fire Legal Liability, it covers accidental damages done to a property you rent. This can be helpful if you’re making changes or doing some construction to accommodate your practice.
After the first seven (7) days of coverage, it may only cover fire damage you accidentally cause to the rented property.

Personal and Advertising Injury
This coverage applies when you’re accused of things like false advertising, invasion of privacy, wrongful entry, libel, or slander.
The policy can respond if you unknowingly make false claims about a competitor and they sue you for slander, or a client sues you, claiming you overcharged or underdelivered vs. your advertised services.

Equipment and Materials Coverage (Inland Marine)
Business equipment can be expensive to replace or repair. Tools and equipment coverage (aka Inland Marine or Business Personal Property) protects your investment in cases of theft or damage.
Imagine this: You met up with a client for coffee and they spilled it on your laptop, which is now DOA. This coverage can help cover the cost of replacement.
Having tools and equipment coverage could help mitigate or even eliminate your out-of-pocket costs to repair or replace it.

Additional Insureds
Additional insureds are third parties (such as landlords, event hosts, or venues) that need liability protection from mistakes or accidents caused by your life coaching business.
You can add additional insureds to your Insurance Canopy life coach insurance anytime by logging in to your dashboard, finding your policy, and adding the individual or business as an additional insured.

Sexual Abuse & Molestation (SAM) Liability Coverage
You see clients during some of their most stressful and emotional moments. When the stakes feel high, even life coaches with strong professional boundaries are vulnerable to clients misunderstanding a conversation about their relationship goals or misinterpreting your support and encouragement.
SAM liability coverage is designed to help pay your defense costs if you’re wrongly accused of sexual harassment or improper conduct.

July 11, 2025I needed a portable policy as a yoga instructor. I found this company in an online search. Called and got details from them, was quite surprised at how affordable... Read More it would be. Then when I was ready to make my purchase, I called again. Was explained to me that everything was done online, I told the lady on the phone I didn't want to make this kind of purchase online with no guidance. She was so helpful and kind and patient! Walked me thru every page of the form and honestly didn't take long at all. Hope I never need to use the policy but nice to know I have it.
