So, what is a Life Coach and why does a person need one?
A Life Coach is a Co-Active partnering relationship that can help you:
work through life, or career transitions more quickly and easily
make positive change in your life, relationships & work
Move forward with clarity and confidence
Gain more success and balance in your life
What is a Life Coach?
Life Coaching is an integration and evolution of the fields of Counseling, Personal/Spiritual Development and Career/Business Consulting. Becoming a Life Coach has been an evolutionary process and a natural extension of my previous counseling practice, personal career and business experience.
How is Life Coaching different from Counseling? Psychotheraputic Counseling predominately deals with a person’s past, painful events and past trauma while Life Coaching deals with a person’s present an seeks to guide them to a more desired future. Little time is spent in the past except for the occasional brief “visit” as an aide to establishing goals and developing the future.
I have seen where there is a fundamental shift in how and why people are seeking help today. People today are dealing with more “here and now” challenges than ever before. More than ever people want to just take a glance at the past and quickly move forward in their life. They need connection with others in general ( evidenced in how popular social networking sites i.e. Myspace, Facebook,texting and now with Twitter and tweeting) and with people who are skilled at helping them deal with today’s challenges, improve their self image, gain clarity as they are uncovering their intentions and purpose in life, to over come the road blocks in their life that may be keeping them from being able to LIVE them not just dream about them.
So, my first question in my last post was: If you were to fully live your life, what is the first change you would start to make? You don’t know? Have thoughts but not clear on what that would be and how you would make that change? and lastly, do you need a support person….someone to sort that out with, set new goals, be accountable to and encourage you to stay focused as progress?
If you answer yes to any of those questions…you could use a Life Coach! I am not currently taking clients but for any questions you may have or a referral you can reach me by email at: chooseabetterself@gmail.com
