Life Coaching by definition is the partnership between myself (a trained Coach) and you (The client) in the undertaking of a thought-provoking and creative process that aims foremost to assist in inspiring you to maximize your personal potential.
The process is fundamentally designed to facilitate the creation of your personal goals, then develop and carry out a plan for achieving them. At its core though, life coaching is about empowering you to discover the potential that already exists within you. Then flowing with the momentum that comes with that.
Unlike seeing a therapist for example, who commonly focuses on problems and the healing or coping of emotional issues from the past. Life coaching, of course, acknowledges your past story thus far, but is a more forward thinking and solution-focused process. As your life coach I aim to assist you in connecting with yourself, getting creative and then to start achieving. The process is definitely one of curiosity, creativity and encouragement for you to self-reflect, gain new insights, become more self-aware, grow in confidence and take action! One of the most key aspects of coaching to note is that rather than myself providing you with my advice, I aim to empower you to think creatively and source your own solutions and that is what really makes the personal breakthroughs meaningful and sustainable.
Why Online Coaching?
We live in a constantly evolving world, especially regarding technology, and within the coaching sphere this is no different. The traditional face to face or in-person methods of coaching have been made to expand a little over time by the emergence of remote or online coaching. As a coach, I believe as we look to the future, it appears to be a more all-round convenient solution for both coaches and clients alike.
3 fundamental advantages of online coaching:
Flexibility:
Clients are able to have their coaching sessions from anywhere in the world, doing away with any limiting geographical barriers. Whether from the comfort of home, during office hours or during travels. The flexibility that online coaching provides has become an important factor for client’s, allowing them to be consistent and stay committed to their journey without interruption.
All-round saving:
With financial budget’s being as tight as they are for many today, this is arguably one of the biggest benefits the online space provides. The travel costs to-and-from a physical practice are eliminated for clients in addition to the time it can take out of one’s day to attend a session. From a coaches’ point of view, the running costs are also severely lower and therefore the coaching rates are too, it’s really a win-win in that way.
Post-Pandemic Relevance:
There has been an increasing importance of remote coaching in the post-pandemic context via Zoom. Whether we have embraced it yet or still warming up to it, new personal and work norms post 2020 are now embracing a more virtual option to an experience. Life coaching is no different, this new direction stands out as a an effective way to consistently meet any evolving needs clients may have, especially in times where there may be surrounding uncertainties within society.
