What is Life Coaching?

Coaching is the key to unlocking ones full potential on a personal and professional level. Based on a holistic approach, a coaching partnership focuses on and nurtures all facets of one's life to help them attain fulfillment, balance and happiness. A life coach walks along the clients' side.

Coaching is not about giving advice, for the client holds the answers. What coaching does is opens the door and reveals the vision we all carry within us. It is a unique, co-active relationship which concentrates on both the present and future through conversation and in-depth questioning. The agenda is always set by the client and their situation; the coach acts as a source of inspiration, motivation and security.

Distinction: Coaching is NOT Therapy

A distinction must be made between the practice of coaching and therapy. Although there are several similarities and consistencies between the two, coaching is simply NOT therapy. Coaching is about achieving goals and momentum when therapy focuses on healing and creating a safe environment. Coaching is about action and developing one's performance, therapy is about understanding ones progression through life. In short, coaching is about visioning and then creating the future of your dreams; therapy is about analysis and resolution of your past.
