 What is Life Coaching?
Life Coaches help people like you navigate transitions, create a more balanced life, discover your purpose,
and make lifelong improvements. A Life Coach can assist you in developing a balanced life plan for intentional living,
set goals and priorities, make important changes, lower stress, determine your core values and vision for every area of your life: Spiritual, Physical, Relational, Financial, Career. So How Does This Life Coaching Really Work?Coaching is the art of helping people grow and maximize their potential without telling them what to do. In a coaching relationship, you choose what you want to work on, you develop your own life, set your own goals and actions – in other words, you are always in charge. What I bring to the table as a coach is a set of professional skills that help you to identify what you really want in life – what's really important. As a coach, I also provide encouragement, healthy accountability, and support so you can live with more intention and reach the goals you set which results in lasting life change. For example, say you want to simplify your life and bring balance into the various areas of your life. A coach might start by helping you identify the key motive at the heart of your desires. However you answer that question, your heart-level drive will be the motivation that leads to making those changes. A coach can help you think deeply about your aims so you are truly being intentional about where you use your time and energy. And once you’ve got a clear handle on an objective you are passionate about, the coach will help you develop an action plan, overcome obstacles along the way, and keep you moving forward until you are experiencing what you were after. Coaching vs. Other Disciplines  You might ask, how is coaching different than mentoring or counseling? Where mentors give wise advice based on their own experience, coaches help you fully draw out your own insight and ability. You have the answers within and are the best expert on your own life, sometimes they just have to be drawn to the surface. Coaches have mastered the art of believing in people instead of telling them what to do. A counselor’s goal is to move hurting people toward wholeness, coaches help people who are basically whole maximize their lives. Counseling focuses on the past, but coaching focuses on the future.
Over and over, people who work with a great coach find they can reach higher and accomplish more than they ever thought they could on their own. Want to learn more about what coaching can do for you? Click below for more information on what coaching is and how it works: More About Coaching |
