What is a Life Coach
In my opinion, I have the perfect job for me. I am a Certified Life Coach through The Life Coach School. I have spent the last few years learning coaching tools, how to use them, how to start a business, and coaching my little heart out. I LOVE coaching. It has changed my life. Now, I have the honor of helping my clients change theirs. Along with general life coaching, I help women connect with themselves, their spouse, and God in their mixed faith marriage.
Many have asked me 1) what is a life coach and 2) how is it different from a counselor or therapist? Great questions. A therapist helps someone when they are functioning below their baseline. They diagnose mental illness, work through trauma, or other problems. The goal with therapy is to go from dysfunction to function. It is often focused on the past.
Coaching on the other hand focuses on the present and the future. A life coach helps a functioning client take it up a notch to the next level and beyond. A life coach is someone who can help you feel better, improve your life, and achieve your goals. Many clients use both a therapist and a Life Coach.
Coaching helps you observe what’s going on in your own brain. When you feel unable to get the results you want or feel frustrated with your life, coaching is the solution. A life coach can help you recognize where you’re stuck and show you exactly what needs to change when you can’t see it yourself. A life coach is like the best friend who will call you out when you’re showing up in a way you don’t want to, give you tough love, and believe in you way before you may be able to believe in yourself. They help you create the exact life you’ve always wanted.
