What is Life Coaching?

Chaotic modern life leaves little time and space for us to take stock of ourselves. A busy schedule often means that we live day to day life on autopilot, simply allowing life to happen to us. But when life is out of sync with our true values, we end up feeling drained or stuck.  A life coach can help you identify what it is you really want. Life coaching can be particularly helpful during difficult transition periods such as after a bereavement or divorce. It can also help improve other areas of life including relationships, parenting, work-life balance, self-esteem as well as time management and organisation skills. 

Through a process of detailed enquiry, he/she can help you identify your core values and then work collaboratively with you in order to achieve those goals. Your coach will help you to identify any inner blocks or limiting beliefs that may be holding you back as well as providing you with tools to manage them. The next step involves formulating a plan of action in order to integrate that vision into your life path. Throughout, your life coach will be an important source of motivation encouraging you to stay committed to making positive changes and keeping up momentum. Ultimately, life coaching is about closing the gap between reality and dreams so that you can live with greater purpose and fulfilment.
