What Is Coaching?
What is Life Coaching?
Life coaching is a personal development and guidance process designed to help individuals identify and achieve their personal and professional goals. Life coaches work with clients to provide support, encouragement, and strategies to overcome challenges, make positive changes, and lead a more fulfilling life. The focus of life coaching is on the present and future, helping clients to clarify their values, define their goals, and take actionable steps to reach them.
Life coaches use various techniques and tools, including questioning, active listening, and goal-setting exercises, to facilitate the self-discovery and growth of their clients. They do not provide therapy or counseling but rather offer a forward-looking, action-oriented approach to personal development.
