A life coach can help empower you to set and achieve goals in many areas of your life whether this be health, relationships, career or helping you to create a life that has more meaning and purpose. You set the agenda for the sessions and a life coach helps you to facilitate the realization of your plans and goals by helping you to break through any barriers or blocks that might be holding you back. Often our fear of failure is our biggest challenge.

The difference between coaching and therapy is that coaching tends to focus more on the present and future. Some types of therapy can concentrate more on the past. As a life coach I help clients identify their goals and any obstacles that are blocking them. Both life coaching and therapy involve guidance and support but life coaching places more emphasis on accountability to enable you to find the path to your goals. Many clients who come for therapy decide to sign up for a course of life coaching once they are in a better frame of mind and able to think more ambitiously about what their future could entail.

There are times throughout a person’s life when they are not where they would like to be or think they should be. Some people have confidence and self-esteem issues that prevent them from fulling their potential. Or they may be unaware of self-sabotaging patterns playing out in areas of their life that prevent them from having what they want. Sometimes a person will hire a life coach to help them navigate some difficult choices, decisions or transitions in their life.

Before setting off on a journey it’s important to know where you want to get from and go to. As a life coach I will help you plan and make that trip so your investment can help you realize your goals. For some people the hardest part can be deciding what they want. Prior to the meeting you will be sent an in-depth form to complete. This will enable you to get clear on what you want to achieve. For your first session I will use the information provided in the form to tailor your session to be the most beneficial for you. We will get really clear on the outcomes you want to achieve, where you are in relation to them and what you need to get to your end destination. Between sessions we will agree on homework assignments or tasks for you to complete. I will encourage you to report back on your progress ahead of your next session so we can tailor the session to what you need. The completion of your homework or tasks is where most of your progress will be made so it is important to really commit to the process of life coaching.

This is a very personal decision based upon what you want to achieve and how much you are willing to commit to the process. It may be more beneficial to meet weekly for one person whilst another client may prefer to book monthly. Some clients prefer a burst of sessions close together rather than waiting several weeks or months before the next. My clients like the fact that I am flexible. I will put your needs and wants at the center of what I do. I offer a range of different life coaching packages via Zoom or Face to Face to suit you and your budget. You can commit to a series of sessions or drop in for a session from time to time. If you are serious about achieving your goals, then make the commitment to yourself that you will give your all to the process.
