What is Life Coaching?
Life Coaching is a relatively new phenomenon in the United States. The coaching industry, and particularly life coaching, has grown substantially since at least 1998. Coaches can now be found in most areas across the country. Several types of specialty coaches are now available, such as personal, career, business and executive coaches.
The life coaching process can be defined as a high impact, solution focused and result-orientated process in which the coach facilitates the enhancement of life experiences and goal achievement.
Recent studies by the University of Sydney in Australia have provided preliminary empirical evidence that a successful life coaching program can facilitate goal attainment, improve mental health and enhance quality of life.
Top athletes have always worked with coaches to optimize their performance. Life coaches work in a similar way, helping you to set compelling and realistic goals and outcomes,develop the strategies, skillset and behaviors needed to achieve success in your personal and professional life.
Life Coaching is based on a set of core skills and practices designed to help you produce the best results faster and with less stress. Professionally trained coaches help you discover the answers already within you, establish clarity of core values and belief structures and co-creating a plan of action to navigate change or support life changing decisions.
Life Coaching is a self directed process with a clear focus on present situations and focuses on the future.
The main areas a personal life coach focuses on include
- Confidence and Self Esteem
- Career Transition and Development
- Relationships
