How does it work?

Life coaching comes in many shapes and forms, face-to-face, over the phone or online. Your coach will guide you through a step-by-step process. Once you know the exact outcome you are committed to achieving, and why it is so important for you to be successful with this you can start creating a map to get there. Your life coach will serve as your sparring partner, motivator, strategist and accountability partner. Their goal is to help you reach your goal in the most efficient, effective and rewarding way possible.

What exactly does a Life Coach Do?

Help you find your Passion and turn that into your Life

We all have passions and things that are incredibly important to us in life. But often what we do most days and what we are really passionate about are two very different things. Many of us got into careers that we thought would be great because we saw other people be happy with them. A Life Coach will help you identify your passions and core values and help you work out strategies to make your life about them, spend more time on what is really important to you.

Help you Achieve your Goals

Setting achievable goals can be challenging when you’re trying to make a change and get started on something new. A life coach is great at helping you interpret your dreams and ideas, and organize them into tangible goals. You may have an idea of what you want but not quite sure how to get there. Or you may have had a solid goal but realized that it wasn’t really what you wanted or is more difficult to achieve then you thought. Often people have too many ideas and goals and need support structuring them to tick them off, one after the other. This is where a life coach comes in and helps you reevaluate those ideas and goals in order to turn them into “smart goals” that encourage real life change and forward motion.

Give you perspective

A life coach helps you to move your life forward and to find fulfillment, success, well-being and happiness. They can help you to pinpoint the blocks or obstacles that are making you feel “stuck” and help you to move through them. You might want to have a different perspective of a situation you are facing before making a decision, such as finding a new career, or looking to start a new relationship.

Teach You How to Make the Right Decisions for Yourself

Life Coaching will equip you with insights, methods and strategies that will help you make the right decisions for yourself and your future. You will be doing a lot of self-reflection exercises and build your inner compass that knows exactly what is right for you. Eventually your decision making process will be a lot faster and focused on long-term gains. This mindset will start to work its way into your everyday life and change how you make decisions on a daily basis because it simply makes sense.

What Does a Life Coach Not Do?

Coaches usually don’t tell you what to do. They try to help you find what feels right for you by helping you reveal the answers to yourself through discussion, suggestions, reflection and mental empowerment.

They are not a Therapist. A life coach will focus mostly on moving toward your future, rather than dealing primarily with your past. Life coaches can help you deal with mental blocks and situations where you are holding yourself back but many past issues are beyond their realm of expertise and need to be addressed by a therapist.

Who works with a Life Coach?

People hire a life coach because:

They want more.
They want to grow.
They want it easier.

It’s as simple as that. Life coaches help a client get all three. Quickly.

Entrepreneurs, executives, business leaders, actors, musicians, creative people, managers, small business owners, start-ups, professionals and home-makers all reach their goals with the help of a life coach. If there is a gap between where you are now and where you want to be, there is room for life coaching. Not only will your life coach help you close the gap, your life coach will help you break through your limited beliefs and challenge you to think bigger.

Just as Olympic athletes wouldn’t think of training without the added insight, objective perspective and enthusiastic support of an athletic coach, many of today’s most successful business leaders, professionals, executives, entrepreneurs and CEOs use the services of a life coach to take their lives, careers, or businesses to the next level.
