What is a life coach? How can a life coach help me and my family?
In a journal article, Champions of potential: Life coaching for older adults, it states: "Research has indicated that clients who have received coaching attribute many positive outcomes to the coaching relationship, including improved self-awareness, a more balanced life, and healthier relationships."
I am a family life coach. I focus on helping families to succeed.
Coaching techniques include 1. Encouraging self-discovery and direction, 2. questioning, and 3. goal setting. Through discovering the strengths they have, clients can visualize a clearer path to accomplish the goals they set while avoiding challenges that have held them back.
Family coaching follows the same basic concept as all other types of coaching: guiding a person from where they are, to where they want to be. Family life coaches support families in a side-by-side capacity, offering support where needed. Coaches are there to help clients set goals. Family life coaches are like training wheels, supporting the family only when needed to make sure the family moves successfully forward on their own journey.
