Life Coaching
What is a Life Coach?
A life coach helps you accomplish your goals, make new changes, and live your dreams. A life coach helps you get from where you are in your life now, to where you want to go. A life coach is a source of motivation and inspiration that gives you the push you need to reach your full potential.
They help you get out of your head and start taking action in the areas of your life that you wish to change. They guide you through the process by asking questions that help you evaluate and decide which steps to take in order to reach your goal or make an important change. They can help you pinpoint the blocks or obstacles that are making you feel “stuck” and help you move through them. A life coach plays the important roles of motivator, strategist and accountability partner. They help you reach your goal in the most efficient, effective and rewarding way possible.
You may be searching for validation and approval before you truly feel justified in taking that big first step towards following your dreams or reaching your goals. The advice and feedback from family and friends can be helpful but it isn’t professional, and rarely is it unbiased. A life coach is someone who is separate from your personal life and can truly look at your ideas and goals objectively, and therefore they are much more capable of giving you the right validation that you need to get started on making your big move.
One of the best things that life coaches do is equip you with methods and tactics that will help you make the right decisions for yourself and your future. They walk you through these processes and eventually you will start developing that problem-solving mindset that they are working on with you. This mindset will start to work its way into your every day life and change how you make decisions on a daily basis because it simply makes sense.
Don’t cling to a
mistake just
because you spent
a lot of time
making it.
Who Hires a Life Coach?
Simply put, the people who hire life coaches are people that want more. They are people that desire growth in their personal or professional lives (possibly both), and they want that growth to come faster or easier. Almost everyone has personal goals they want to meet and often, they just need the push that comes with the wisdom and encouragement from a life coach.
People who hire a life coach tend to be people that want the following:
- To achieve their goals and be successful
- To find happiness
- To find their life purpose
- To do what they love
- To decide on or change their career
- To be more confident
- To find love or improve their relationships
- To discover the motivation to get into shape
People hire a life coach for almost anything they want to improve upon in their lives.
Is a Life Coach a Therapist?
No, a life coach doesn’t treat issues like depression, anxiety, or mental illnesses. A life coach will focus on looking toward your future, rather than dealing primarily with your past. While they may offer you suggestions, new ideas or action steps, they are not advice-givers. Instead, they listen to you and ask you the right questions to help you find your path, your truth, and your answers. Then they help you to align your life with who you are and what you want. It’s really important to realize that when you sign up for life coaching, you will not be getting a therapist.
Is Life Coaching Worth the Cost?
What’s your life worth to you? If someone could help you make a very significant change in your life, how much would you pay for that? How much is it worth to you to be relieved of feeling unfulfilled, unhappy, and lost? What’s attaining your dreams worth to you?
If there is a gap between where you are now and where you want to be, then there is room for life coaching. Why struggle on your own when you can get what you want out of life in a fraction of the time with the structure, support, and tools of a skilled life coach?
Life is too short to be trapped in an unhappy situation. If you are ready to work your way out and up to the life you desire and deserve, let me help you determine your destination, stay on course, handle the stormy situations life throws your way, and eventually end up where you want to be.
