Frequently asked questions about life coaching

JulieLambert Do I need life coaching?

It’s your life and you are in charge. Only you know whether you can benefit from someone’s help. If you have challenges, goals, ambitions or aims in your life that you believe will bring you happiness and you can confidently achieve these goals in an effective way and time, then no, you do not need to use a life coach. If however, you find achieving some of your life goals difficult, or need direction on the best next step to take, then it is worth considering using the help and guidance of a professional mentor/coach.

Does life coaching provide psychological or health counselling?

No, Life coaching is about getting the things in life you have always wanted but have not yet achieved; goals, ambitions, life transitions, planning, happiness, relationships, career, etc. Many life coaches are skilled in areas such as career achievement, living a balanced life, business planning/sales/marketing, achieving wealth, successfully completing education, relationships or many other general life areas. These topics are not typically the domain of a psychologist and are therefore supported by life coaches.

How much will it cost?

I have a slightly different approach to coaching which is why I recommend you take up my option of a free one-off spiritually based answer to any question you may have. I also offer a Three Month Individual Coaching Module. Click here for more details.

Will life coaching be successful for me?

Coaching involves a combined effort from both parties; just in the way the football coach helps and inspires his/her players to higher levels of excellence, so too is the role of the life coach. You still have to do the work, or play the game so to speak, but you are now armed with tools and knowledge to understand why you do certain things and how life can be improved tenfold. If you are prepared to try on some new ideas, you will enjoy and benefit from the coaching process.

What should I expect from the first session?

The first session will clarify the next best steps to take based on your individual Welcome Pack. It is also a chance for you to add any further thoughts or ideas they may have. Is three months coaching enough? Three months is a good time scale to look back on; where positive ideas and concepts can be owned and successfully incorporated. A three month coaching module is available for this purpose. Depending on the client and the issues they wish to discuss, a few more single coaching sessions can be added as required.
