What is Life Coaching?

Life coaching is the process of helping you find the path between where you are now and where you want to be in your life.

It is about setting and achieving goals in many areas of life, including business, health and wellbeing, career, relationships and work-life balance. It can be as broad as wanting to find what will make you happier or as specific as wanting to start a new job.

A life coach uses insightful questioning to help their clients identify the goals they want to achieve, recognize their current circumstances, consider all the options open to them and choose which actions they will take within a defined timeframe.

Life coaching centers around the belief that everyone can achieve their goals through acknowledging and using their own resources, rather than being told what to do.

Coaching can also help people who aren't sure what they want from life – they're only sure about what they don't want. A skilled coach can help a client consider all areas of their life and narrow down what they want to focus on and what might be holding them back from achieving it. They will also help a client to recognize their strengths and how these can assist them with their goal. This knowledge, combined with working out the values that drive the client, can help set positively framed goals that center around achieving something rather than avoiding something.

And it doesn't stop there. Life coaching will provide you with the ongoing tools, techniques and strategies to create change and success that actually lasts.
