What does a life coach do?

So you’re searching around for someone who can help you pinpoint your purpose, but then you come across the term life coach. You may be wondering what the heck is a life coach and exactly does a life coach do? 

Well, to bring you up to speed, a life coach is someone who can act as a mentor or guide to help you find joy and live life with intention and purpose.

Here is why a life coach may be exactly what you’re looking for to help you undergo a life transformation and how a life strategist may be the best solution out there to help you in your pathway to purpose.

What exactly does a coach do?

Help you get clear on your goals. Life coaches can help you connect where you have been to where you are wanting to go even —-if you’re not sure where that is yet.  They can help you out a plan in place and create actionable steps to help you make your goals more attainable.

Help you quiet the negative Nancy’s. No one wants to hear this, but sometimes you can be your own worst critic. Sometimes it’s not always the other people who don’t believe in you. Sometimes it’s you who hasn’t believed in you enough. Sometimes when you’re in a fog, a life strategist can help you see if there is a negative Nancy in you who needs to be silenced so you can step into living out life boldly, confidently, and in your fullness and abundance. 

Help you stand in your own light. From our early lives we have constantly been told what we need to do or how we need to be. We learned from our parents that we have to ask for permission to do what really want to do and only after we’ve done our work. We’re taught by society that if we fail to meet specific expectations in regards to love and career by a certain age we’re a failure or “a late bloomer”. There comes a point in our lives where we have to let go of what everyone else is telling us to do and how to be. A life strategist can help you pull back the layers so you can step away from anyone else’s shadow and learn to stand in our own light so you can find fulfillment in life.

Help you break the habit of self-sabotage. If you aren’t careful, you can start something one day and end up in a rhythm repeating the same action several days, months, or even years down the line. Not because you particularly want to keep repeating the action. But because it’s that easy to form a habit. What type of habits are you creating? Are you forming a habit of self-sabotage? Are you constantly telling yourself about why you can’t, about what this can’t work, or about how you aren’t good enough because of x, y, or z? As long as you continue in this habit, you will see that outcome resulting in your life. Sometimes it’s best if you can find someone who you can talk things out with who can help you interrupt the old habit and create a new and positive mental attitude. That’s where a life strategist comes in to hold you accountable and so your new habits can match the highest vision that you hold for yourself in your dreams.
