What is Life Coaching?

A Different Approach

You may be wondering, ‘What is life coaching?’ and think it is a watered-down version of therapy. However, life coaching takes a completely different approach to solving problems than traditional therapy and is not a replacement for it. Therapy can help people heal from emotional wounds, but coaching supports people to transition into the life they want. Many people who don’t need therapy have found coaching to be the solution they were looking for.

History of Life Coaching

Life coaching was historically started by counselors who were originally providing therapy to those looking to heal from emotional and mental issues such as addiction, chronic anxiety, depression, trauma, etc. However, they recognized that they were not serving people beyond healing their wounds, and many individuals who wanted to improve their lives didn’t have emotional disorders. This prompted the birth of the life coaching industry. Abandoning their medical background of diagnosing mental and emotional disorders, these pioneering coaches shifted their focus to research-backed strategies to help those who are stuck develop new habits and achieve their goals. Like personal trainers, they began helping people identify their blind spots and provided them with the unique support needed to help them succeed.

Is Life Coaching for Me?

Over the last 30 years, life coaching has proven to be a popular and effective choice for leaders, married couples, and those seeking personal growth. One of the appealing things about coaching is that it doesn’t focus on past failures and identifying old wounds. Instead, coaches uses powerful questions, paradigm shifting insights, and support through accountability to empower their clients to blaze their own paths forward. Coaches don’t take sides in relationship but help people understand each other and explore all their options. While avoiding the notions connected with traditional therapy, coaches can help reframe their clients’ perspectives and use this new outlook to solve their problems. Life coaching may be right for you if you are looking for a structured environment to creatively define your own objectives and grow, free from the judgment of others.
