What Is a Life Coach?
/Debunking the Myths
Let’s start with what a life coach is not.
An ego masseuse
A licensed counselor or therapist
Your Aunt Martha who just peppers you with questions every Thanksgiving
A guru with all the answers
Here’s what a life coach is.
Someone to help you reach your goals
A good listener
A thoughtful question asker
A motivator and someone to hold you accountable
A coach is meant to help you get from point A to point B. A coach will listen to you, ask you powerful questions and help you determine the right course of action. Your coaching sessions are a launching point to help you get the work done that needs to be done.
A relationship with a coach can be ongoing or it can be for a short period of time. The best way to determine if coaching is right for you is to sign up for a free initial coaching call. It’s just 20 minutes long and will give you a better idea of what it would be like to hire a coach.
