A better question may be what isn't life coaching?

If you have a life, then a life coach can help you live it more effectively.

Everyone can benefit from having a life coach. A life coach can help you reach for more, become more and do more because of the support and unique structure the coaching relationship provides.

Having a life coach is like having your own life cheerleader. A life coach listens and asks you questions that bring you greater clarity over whatever it is you are facing. A life coach offers you perspective and helps you get to the root of an issue, gain insights, and then helps you move forward with greater confidence.

"Then the time came when the risk it took to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom."

Anais Nin

A life coach can guide you towards living your life based on what is most important to YOU, not someone else or society, and create a life strategy that includes everything that you are passionate about and love. A life coach can help you create the vision you need to propel yourself forward and motivate you to keep taking the action steps needed for it to become a reality. A life coach walks or runs beside you, stimulating your progress, igniting you motivation, and maximizing your potential.

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out & screaming 'WOO HOO - What a ride!'"
