WHAT IS LIFE COACHING

WHAT IS LIFE COACHING?

Life coaching - can be defined as a partnership between a coach and a client,

where the coach - encourages the client to find his/her own solutions, through active listening and powerful questioning.

A coach is professionally trained to facilitate effective coaching conversations using various coaching tools, and methodologies to increase client's self awareness, motivation and achievement of goals that are set by clients.

Coaching provides a confidential, unbiased, and non judgemental space for client to gain deeper understanding, explore fresh perspective and experience mindset shifts.

Life coaching believes that client is naturally creative, resourceful and fully capable.

The coach's job is to:

Facilitate conversations to help client gain more clarity, set realistic and sustainable goals and to elicit solutions and strategies from the client.
Encourage the client to look at situations with various angles to possibly understand different obstacles and resistances between client and their desired goals.
Work together with the client to maximise their personal and professional potential and empower them to work towards self-directed learning and growth to maximize their performance.

Coaching Approach is:

Solution focused
Future oriented
Action driven

COACHING covers various aspects of life including (but not limited to) relationships, parenting, career, executive, leadership, finances, health and spiritual.

Similarly, one such area where coaching can be really beneficial is life transition coaching.

WHAT IS LIFE TRANSITION COACHING?

Through the power of coaching and specific change management tools and techniques, a coach will help you go through the changes in life, more efficiently and smoothly.

Changes in our lives may be by choice or by situation, may be welcomed or unpleasant, may be anticipated or sudden - they can always be challenging. The phrase that change is the only constant in life may be cliched, but this is the truth.

So, if you have been wanting for so long, to set up a new business or quit your job and make a career shift or planning to start a family but somehow have been delaying because something inside you have been holding you back.

Or, if there is a change in your life by circumstances like getting married, becoming a new parent, relocation to a new place or having to look for a new job.

Ofcourse, You can go through these life transitions on your own as well....

...but a coach will help you create a picture of where you are now and where you wish to be and empower you to bridge the gap between the two. So, the life you wish to pursue, will be in sync with your values.

The coach is your accountability partner who helps you:

Stay motivated,
Stay focussed,
See the obstacles,
Find the best possible solutions

So, the whole process of going through a life change can be more positive and a smoother experience for you.

Through coaching, you will not only thrive through current transition in your life but will also be prepared for future challenges and future transitions, by becoming more resilient and gaining the right mindset around transition.
