What Is Life Coaching Anyway?

Some people have the mistaken assumption that a life coach is a teacher. This is untrue. There are times however that I take my coaching hat off and put my consulting hat on. In these cases, I'm merely sharing what works regarding issues of the subconscious mind, human psychology or in business strategies. 

Teachers usually work with prepared programs or schedules. Both classroom and online learning use a planned approach and a specific time frame.

However as your life coach, I prepare before our sessions. The approach is more fluid and revolves around the your needs, goals, aspirations and also around your stumbling blocks.

As your life coach, I'm focused on your goals but mostly on guiding and helping you to have those brilliant, "ah-ha" moments. 

What is the life coaching process?

Working together in our life coach relationship is a very special one. You have someone who you can come to in a very confidential way. 

First off, we will start with the breakthrough call. This is where I learn more about your struggle and where you'd like to be in your life, career or business. 

From this conversation, I'm able to provide a prescription. I've coached hundreds of people over the last eight years and have become familiar with many different situations and problems. The good news is, I've perfected a process to create massive results.

What I'm able to do so well for you is see your vision. This works in your favor because you'll be able to see your future more clearly. This gets you excited to start experiencing it.

This is what is so critical in setting and reaching your goals.

Your commitment and your belief is what is needed to begin our coaching relationship. From here, you decide if you want to work together for 3 months, 6 months or a year.

When we start our coaching relationship, I'll provide you with a private link to my Zoom meeting room. This is where we meet for our 60-minute weekly sessions. This is where you'll have those epiphanies and get the strategies you need as well as receive the accountability that helps you to get unstuck. 

I have tools to help you to focus and create the change you desire. This is where we can zero in on the target and create those goals to create change. 

 During our coaching program, you'll have email access to me. This is ideal to ask questions about homework tasks or to fill me in on your progress.
