Life Coaching 101: From goals to achievements
In today's fast-paced and demanding world, we might find ourselves lost and uncertain about what we actually want to do with our life. We lack the knowing what makes us truly happy. It is common to find ourselves yearning for guidance, clarity, and a sense of purpose. These kinds of thoughts are the first signs that life coaching is something that is for you!
Life coaching is a powerful tool that empowers individuals to discover their true potential, set and achieve meaningful goals, and overcome obstacles that may be holding them back.
Let’s explore a bit of the world of life coaching, addressing common questions and shedding light on how it can help you.
What is life coaching?
Life coaching focuses on various aspects of life, including career, relationships, personal growth, and overall well-being. Through thought-provoking conversations, goal-setting, and strategies, life coaching helps individuals gain clarity, develop self-awareness, and take inspired action toward their desired outcomes.
How does life coaching work?
My life coaching sessions take place on a one-on-one basis, either in person or online. My mission as a life coach is to create a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can freely express themselves. By actively listening and asking questions, I guide the client to explore their values, beliefs, and motivations. Together, we identify goals, create action plans, and work toward sustainable change. The duration of life coaching can range from a few weeks to several months or even ongoing to support continuous growth.
What can be the outcome of life coaching?
Life coaching offers a range of benefits:
- increased clarity and self-awareness;
- improved goal-setting and achievement;
- growing confidence and self-esteem;
- greater work-life balance;
- better communication skills;
- effective stress management;
- improved decision-making skills;
- navigating life challenges.
How much does life coaching cost?
The cost of life coaching varies depending on the coach's experience and the duration of the coaching program. It's important to consider the value and potential long-term benefits when evaluating the investment in life coaching. Some coaches offer hourly rates and others offer package options like a 10-time offer. My coaching price you can find HERE or CONTACT ME for the 3-month package(12 appointments) for 999€.
What is the difference between a life coach and a therapist?
While life coaches and therapists both assist individuals in achieving personal growth, there are differences between the two. While life coaching is working mainly with the present and future, then therapy dives deeper into past experiences. Life coaching is action-oriented and results-driven whereas therapy often involves exploring emotions and traumas.
As both a life coach and therapist, I believe that putting these two practices together can help my clients achieve their desired goals more consciously and quicker. That’s why I weave these different techniques together when I see the necessity for it. I strongly believe that to make lasting changes we first need to look at our past and what is holding us back from not getting what we want and doing what we desire.
What can the life coach help me with?
Life coaching is highly effective in addressing specific goals and challenges. Whether it's career paths and advancement, relationship issues, time management, or personal growth, a life coach can provide guidance, accountability, and practical strategies tailored to individual needs.
What techniques do life coaches use?
Life coaches use several effective techniques to help the client to achieve their desired goals:
- goal-setting and action planning;
- visualization and affirmation exercises;
- journaling and self-reflection;
- accountability check-ins and progress tracking;
- communication skills development;
- cognitive reframing and mindset shifts;
- positive psychology interventions;
- time management and prioritization strategies.
