About Life Coaching
Life Coaching is similar to talking to a
friend about your dreams and aspirations,
with the exception that the discussion is
kept confidential, and that there are no
judgements made, you are simply supported.
You can set your goals high and your coach
will help you plan the steps to acheive those
goals, not tell you that your goals are too
high, or your dreams impossible. You can
acheive your dreams with a well laid out
plan and the proper support.
A life coach helps you obtain your goals
by helping you to lay out your plan, and
providing you with support when an obstacle
comes your way. Your coach will help you
overcome obstacles and help you to maintain
your focus in today's complex and busy world.
Your coach will also give you someone to
be accountable to, so when you need that
little extra support, you know who to go
to and get the support you need.
During your appointments your life coach
will help you define what you are looking
for to enhance your life. A typical appointment
is about 45 minutes and will include discussions
about your goals, obstacles, and the support
you need, plus you will be assigned homework
to help you progress toward acheivement.
Appointments are usually conducted through
telephone, email or a combination of the
two and possible other means of communication.
