Life coaching is a science-backed method of helping you to change your life in the ways you wish. It supports you in achieving your goals by building your awareness and empowering you to make choices that lead to change. Whether you’re looking to find your direction, improve your relationships, meet your health and fitness goals, increase your wealth, find your creative expression, or make changes to your lifestyle and environment – coaching can help you achieve it.
Life coaching can help with virtually any aspect of someone’s life, from the personal to the professional. Celebrities, athletes, business leaders and people from all walks of life, have all used life coaching to help them reach their own personal goals and attain a greater sense of fulfilment.
What are some examples of topics you could address?
- Defining your vision for your ideal present and future
- Overcoming what’s holding you back from your dreams
- Finding more balance in your work and life
- Meeting your health and fitness goals
- Building better relationships and improving communication
- Discovering your passions and having the courage to pursue them
- Difficult decision making and problem solving
- Managing a career or life transition
- Becoming more assertive
- Planning and goal Setting
- Stress management and self-Care
How does it work?
The way we understand ourselves and our circumstances often feels like objective truth. However, in reality, our ideas are shaped by our experiences and surroundings. Sometimes our beliefs and thoughts can end up holding us back. Coaching helps you challenge and rewrite these limiting beliefs, expanding your view of what you can achieve.
In our sessions, you decide what you’re looking to achieve. My role is to actively listen to both what is being said and what is not being said, while noticing what you are feeling in any given moment. I’ll often reflect these back to you, offering you subtle clues to your own truth that you may not have been fully aware of.
The reflective inquiry approach helps to create a powerful perspective shift. By using your emerging understanding, you can make empowering choices in moving forward.
Is it the same as Therapy?
Both coaching and therapy play a useful role in people’s lives. What distinguishes them is that coaching tends to focus on the present and future, helping you achieve your goals. Talking therapy often has a strong focus on the past to help you overcome traumas, depression and anxiety.
