How does coaching work?
Life Coaching assumes that you are resourceful. It is not advice giving, therapy, or cheerleading. It is designed to help you live with purpose, power, joy and success.
When you hire a life coach you begin a co-creative relationship that is in accordance with your values and goals in mind. In each meeting you chose the focus of conversation. A life coach guides you through discussion, questioning, brainstorming and encouragement. It is imperative that a life coach actively listens and uses insightful and direct questions to help you get clarity and a vision of where you want to go.
Coaching happens either in person or on the phone. Life coach session are 60 minutes in duration and usually end with some “action steps” clarified between coach and client. These steps are helpful to get to the achieved goal. Coaching takes time to see results and most clients need 3 months minimum to see the true benefits gained. However, you will determine how long you want the relationship to continue based on the value you get from coaching.
Who hires a coach?
People who hire a coach understand that making changes is easier with a partner who holds your values and goals in mind. Clients that hire coaches are honest, direct and willing to hear the truth. These individuals are motivated and passionate with a strong focus and willingness to face obstacles.
