What is a life coach?
A life coach is a professional in the field of personal or professional development who supports his or her clients in the context of a goal or problem occurring in their current situation.
The coach has been trained in coaching school online or face-to-face.
He has a methodology that allows him to help clients to :
- Clarify their values
- Clearly define their goals
- Identify their strengths and weaknesses
- Become aware of psychological blocks
- Create an action plan to achieve their goals
How does life coaching work?
Life coaching can take place either face-to-face or remotely.
For example, if you live in the same city as the coach, you can be coached face-to-face. But if you do not live near the office, you can also take advantage of online coaching. The main advantages of distance coaching are the lower price and the time-saving.
Before starting customized coaching, the coach :
- helps you to define a specific goal and it is according to this goal that the coach will structure the coaching sessions
- can prepare a coaching contract, i.e. a moral commitment that defines the framework of the coaching and the rules of this form of support
During each session, the coach uses active listening to understand what you are feeling and to ask you effective questions that allow you to become aware of what prevents you from making progress in your personal or professional life.
The coach does not provide you with solutions but allows you to become aware of your potential and to make the choices that are best for you.
At the end of each coaching session, you choose to commit to taking actions that are consistent with your goal. This is a double commitment with yourself and with your coach that will reinforce your overall motivation.
During the next session, the coach will help you to value your learning, to focus on your progress, to celebrate your successes, and to overcome possible blocks.
