What does Coaching mean?

Coaching/coaches help us accelerate change and boost performance in different areas of our lives. It helps a person change what may need changing and helps them to move into the direction they want to go. Coaching supports a person in moving from where (and who) they are to where (and who) they want to be. They do this by building self-awareness, empowering the person and their choices, which in turn leads to change. They may also assist in helping you find your ‘why’, your motivation, your reason-for-being and your purpose when we think we don’t have one and then teach you how to hold onto this and live for this.

What is the purpose of online coaching?
Coaching focuses on the ‘here and now’ rather than on the past or future. It will help you to be the best version of yourself while unlocking your full potential. Coaches help us identify our goals and develop an actionable plan to achieve them to improve our day-to-day life. Coaching will assist you by helping you to learn rather than teaching you. They will help you identify the obstacles holding you back, and then come up with strategies for overcoming each obstacle. A coach helps a person to learn how to do these things on their own by developing a personal skill set.
What problems do online life coaches solve?
Coaching helps us to know ourselves better, and what we want out of life. Once we have this, we can set goals and actionable steps to get there. Through this, they also help us to build confidence in ourselves and what we do. Coaches can help us find balance in our lives and teach us how to live within and stay within this balance. A major part of having a life coach is that they help us to stay accountable. This way we are far more likely to achieve the life we want.
