Life Coaching Explained

What is a Life Coach?

Life Coaching involves working with clients who want an objective, non-judgmental partner to help them improve, evolve, and enhance their lives. The coaching process is very collaborative, co-creative and supportive.

We (coach & client) are like partners, our purpose being to focus solely on your interests, challenges, and goals.

Together we work to:
• Identify limiting patterns & beliefs
• Expand awareness
• Investigate false thinking
• Reveal choices
• Broaden perspective
• Learn to take ownership of one’s experiences
• Create a process of accountability

Life coaching can really be an amazing process for those who are truly seeking to change or enhance their lives whether it’s more meaning, less suffering or better relationships they’re seeking.

We usually have the answers we’re seeking hiding somewhere inside of us. Life coaching endeavors to help the client uncover their truths and custom design their solutions.

I am a teaching coach. I like to help my clients learn how to help themselves. It can be fun and it will be enlightening. What you get out of it ultimately depends on your willingness to expand your thinking, shift your perspective and your commitment to your own growth.

Is Life Coaching Like Therapy?

No. COACHING IS NOT THERAPY. Where therapy brings understanding and awareness of the past to a client, coaching starts with where a client is currently at and moves to propel them forward toward their desires.

LIFE COACHES work with clients who want a non-judgmental, detached partner to help them evolve and enhance their lives. Life Coaches help clients develop a sustainable, step-by-step process to get where they want to go, then uphold their choices and make them accountable for following through on them.

THERAPISTS and doctors generally work with unhealthy people to try and bring them back to a state of mental or physical good health. They are healers.

LIFE COACHES work with healthy people and, within the scope of their current abilities, try to help them achieve the highest levels of personal life satisfaction that they desire.

THERAPISTS work with clients who need professional help to work towards healing, recovery, and issue resolution. They are experts in medical and behavioral sciences trained to treat diagnosable conditions.

LIFE COACHES find their clients’ strengths and the areas in need of development and are trained to facilitate the client toward achieving a certain desired outcome.
