Why hire a life coach?
How many times have you tried to change and failed? You’ve tried every diet, you are stuck in the same yucky job for 20 years. Is your marriage failing, or, maybe, you can’t find LOVE at all?
Most likely your life is mostly awesome, except for that one thing you just can’t seem to change for the better, no matter what you do. You want to move to the next level of your career, but you keep getting passed up for a promotion. You want to write a novel that you been thinking about for years, but every time you sit down to write, something gets in your way – the dog needs to be walked, you clean the kitchen, you do anything but write…
Get the point. No matter what is going on in your, most people can benefit from hiring a life coach.
What Is a Life Coach?
A life coach can help you see where your life is and help you create a plan of where to go and how to get there. When you and your life coach have a good understanding of what you want the possibilities are endless.
A life coach will help you focus on the future and how to help you get to your goals successfully. A life coach can and should help you look to the future and achieving your goals.
What Does a Life Coach Do?
Your life coach will ask you deep and meaningful questions to help you identify what you really want in life. They will help you discover what habits or beliefs are holding you back from achieving your dreams and goals for yourself. Together, you should develop a plan of real, attainable steps to move you closer along your path to your dreams. Your life coach is your accountability partner so check in often!
Listen, most of the time we know exactly what we should be doing to move in the directions of our dreams, but we just can’t seem to turn off all the extras and move forward. Having regular contact a life coach can be the motivation you need to get moving.
A life coaches job is to help you reach for your dreams and goals, not to tell you what to do with your life. They should challenge you to show you what is possible and what you are capable of. They should encourage you to do the things you want to do, but never thought you could. Turn to your life coach for guidance, advice, support, and accountability to live by your truths.
How to find your life coach?
Please don’t assume that the most effective life coaching happens in person. Most times coaching online or over the phone is just as effective than coaching in person. Here are the benefits on online or over the phone life coaching:
- You can find the best coach for you from anywhere on the planet
- You have over 50 times as many coaches to choose from
- You can find a coach who specializes in what that you need
- You may be more willing to open up about yourself when you are not face to face
- You’ll save time by doing your coaching sessions anywhere at home or while traveling
- You don’t have to drive anywhere you meet your coach
If having a face-to-face conversation is important to you remember there is always video chat. But, if you have a strong need for being physically with your coach, choosing one locally, may be the right course of action for you.
Finding the Right Coach for You
Most life coaches offer a free consultation which is very helpful! This gives you a chance to speak to your life coach before paying for sessions. This is a great opportunity for you to ask them questions, and see if you are a good fit together. During this consultation let the coach get to know you and get an understanding of what you want. Ask questions of the life coach to gain an understanding of how they work and if you can work together!
Remember a coach should be non-judgmental, but willing to push you about what is holding you back. They should be able to listen, but willing to ask you questions that will help you move forward. Your life coach should be someone you can open up to, someone you can share personal details with, yet someone who is professional.
In closing hire a life coach you DESERVE it.
Peace out…
