What is life coaching anyway?
There’s some confusion about what a life coach is and why you’d hire one. We humans benefit from an objective viewpoint, honest feedback, and some accountability. Our friends and family will not serve that purpose. Having a conversation with a coach is very different than any other interaction. If you have a large goal or an area of growth that is triggering your fears or you’re not addressing an underlying problem, a life coach can help.
You can be a highly functional person and seek the help of a coach. They are ready to go for more, and not more stuff, but more connection and fulfillment. And if you think it’s extra, or selfish, think again. There is great benefit to your loved ones when you raise your self-awareness and show up as the loving presence you are. Working with a coach will help you focus on what you do have control over, and leave the rest alone. You’ll learn how your own response to your life circumstances is what’s creating the world you live in.
