Frequently asked questions:
- What is a Life Coach? A professional trained to help you reach your goals in life. Similar to a personal trainer who helps a person reach their physical goals, a life coach can help a person reach their personal, relationship, or professional goals. This is done by excavating what is blocking a person from getting where they want to be. The blockage is usually the result of a thought (or multiple thoughts) we believe to be true.
- Art or Science? Strategic art. A life coach uses creative tools to help define your goals and explore what is blocking you from reaching those goals. Identifying thoughts that are limiting beliefs are the core of coaching.
- Is it counseling? No. Counseling helps by looking at the past, especially when emotional distress is involved. Coaching focuses on future goals. Of course, the past is part of everyone's life story, but the main focus is on where you want to go, not where you're been. Should a need for counseling arise, a referral will be made to a licensed counselor .
