Life Coaching Services for individuals

Why make use of a life coach?

life coaching goals
  • What do you do when you need help with improving your self-esteem, obtaining more self-confidence, wanting to make career changes, or improving your day-to-day life?
  • You may be struggling to find your purpose in life.
  • It is here where the life coach comes in. We are used to the term coach when we refer to a sports coach like rugby, tennis or any other sport. Just like a good sports coach will keep the athlete focused on their goals, provide feedback, challenge and encourage them when they may feel frustrated and not make enough progress, a good life coach (life purpose coach) will help you set goals, stay focused and motivated in order to gain insights and make progress towards achieving your life-goals in less time than you could on your own.

What is life coach?

  • Life Coaching is a one-on-one process between the Coach and the client, often referred to as the coachee. The coaching process is a collaborative process that is facilitated by a well-trained and professional coach. Coaching is a type of wellness process that helps people to make progress in their lives in order to attain their life goals and to become a better version of themselves.
  • A Life coach helps their clients to make the necessary behaviour changes in order to attain these life goals. Typical goals may include just about anything, like gaining more self-confidence, weight loss, career changes, better relationships, and many more. People from every possible age, background, and occupation get coaching, but they all have one thing in common; a desire to achieve something more in their personal or professional life.
  • Whatever your goals, a professional life coach gives you motivation, accountability and support, keeping you focused and taking action from week to week.

Life Coaching - FAQ

Life coaching is aimed explicitly at individuals who want to achieve more from their lives by accepting the present and they do not let the past dictate their future. Life coaching helps people improve their relationships, careers, and day-to-day lives to attain work-life balance and greater fulfilment.

Individual coaching is a holistic approach that facilitates personal development, transformation, performance and harmony for managers, employees, and independent individuals.

No Coaching is not counselling. When working with a coach, you may deal with certain unresolved issues. Still, it is essential to understand that coaches can't treat mood disorders, anxiety disorders, addiction, or other mental health conditions. When experiencing symptoms of conditions such as depression or anxiety, it is best to consult your doctor or therapist or counsellor to discuss treatment options and counselling. Therapists and other mental health professionals focus on healing, treating mental health conditions, and helping people work through trauma and other past issues.

Life coaching is a growing field that aims to help individuals achieve their goals, find clarity, and improve their overall well-being.

When it comes to life coaching, the duration of the coaching process can vary depending on several factors. Each individual's journey is unique, and therefore the time it takes to achieve desired results may differ. However, there are some key points to consider when discussing the duration of life coaching.

Firstly, it is important to note that life coaching is not a quick fix or a one-time session. It is a process that requires commitment and dedication from both the coach and the client. Generally, life coaching engagements can range from a few weeks to several months, depending on the goals and complexity of the challenges being addressed.

Factors that may influence the timeline of life coaching include the level of clarity and awareness the client already has about their goals, their willingness to take action and implement changes, their availability for sessions, and their commitment to doing the necessary work outside of sessions.

It is important for clients to understand that sustainable change takes time and effort. Life coaching is not about providing immediate solutions but rather empowering individuals to make lasting changes in their lives.

Ultimately, the duration of life coaching will be determined through open communication between the coach and client, as they work together towards achieving desired outcomes and personal growth.
