So what is Life Coaching Anyways?

Hello Friends!

I am sure many of you have heard of Life/Career/Executive Coaching somewhere along the way. I am also sure many of you are asking yourselves, so what is this Life Coaching thing all about? Could I benefit from it?

Let me ask you this first; have you ever had a coach, music teacher, role model or a teacher growing up that you considered a mentor? What did this person do for you? Did they guide you in your interest? Challenge you? Push you to be your best? Maybe sometimes they even asked things of you that you just didn't believe that you could achieve. All the while the simple fact that they believed in you created a desire in you to be your best and before you knew it you were doing things you never thought possible.

Much like the above scenario, coaching is a partnership between the coach and the client where dreams, desires, and goals are objectively supported and challenged resulting in a positive, forward-moving experience for the client. Coaching provides a confidential judgment free atmosphere to explore your authenticity, restore your integrity, and live a more fulfilling life.

We all have goals we would like to achieve, right?

The beauty in coaching is that you have someone there to cheer you on, support you and challenge you in order to accomplish all your desires. A coach is not there telling you how they think YOU should live YOUR life. The best way I heard it put recently is that a coach is not paving the path for your life they are helping you to remove all the obstacles along the path to the life you desire.

Before you ask your next question, let me explain briefly how this all works.

As a coach I have come to a place in my life where I truly believe that where everyone is at in there lives is the perfect place, that they make the best decisions for them, and that they are simply perfect as they are. I also acknowledge that many of us have goals and dreams that we are striving towards. I believe that you are capable of anything you set out to accomplish. ANYTHING!

As a coach I will promise the following:

I ask the obvious questions. My intention is to understand my clients needs, values and feelings and for them to understand these as well. This helps to ensure you are having all your needs met.

I am honest with my clients and will tell them what I think is going on and will stretch them to do more than they would do on their own. Through powerful questioning many clients will come to those "ah ha" moments creating lasting shifts in their lives.

I will hold my clients accountable to their desires and support them in moving forward with these desires, no matter how scary or impossible it may seem. I will be there for my clients.

My overall intention is for my clients to be acknowledged, truly listened to and empowered to make the changes they desire in their life, changes that will create a more fulfilling life for them.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, have an interest in coaching or know anyone that is interested. I would love to hear how I can help support others in accomplishing their goals!
