What life coaching isn’t
-Life coaching isn't a quick fix or a one-size-fits-all solution.
-It's not therapy, mentoring, or consulting.
-Life coaching doesn't provide all the answers or magically solve problems. It’s led by you & supported by the coach.
-It's not about someone telling you what to do or taking control of your life. It’s being a mirror to reflect the answers back to you.
-Life coaching isn't just for people who are struggling; it's for anyone looking to make positive changes and achieve their goals.
-It's not about dwelling on the past but rather focusing on the present and future. Through motivation & positivity.
Life coaching is a collaborative process where the client is the expert in their own life, and the coach provides support, guidance, and accountability to help them thrive.
“In a forest of a hundred thousand trees, no two leaves are alike & no two journeys along the same path are alike.”
— Paulo Coelho
