Becoming a Life Coach

Like most life coaches I have found that a number of those who visit my Life Coaching Website  are themselves interested in becoming life coaches (or in some cases they already are life coaches!).

There are a number of attractions to being a life coach, including:
  • The enjoyment and personal reward that comes from helping people to do what they want or to overcome problems
  • Being able to take control of our own business and organise your life accordingly
  • Being in a role where you continually learn and develop.
However, despite the numerous life coaching courses out there who make it appear as if training to be a life coach is a simple way to guaranteed personal and financial success there are also some pitfalls to being a life coach, such as:
  • Starting any business is challenging and this applies as much to a life coaching business as to any other
  • Making decisions such as how to market your business and how to develop a website require thought and research
  • It is important to reflect on how to keep appropriate boundaries in your work with clients who may be vulnerable people and how to ensure that you are providing a service which is worthwhile and effective
To help you decide if you want to become a life coach, I run a Be a Life Coach Newsletter which gives you the benefit of my own experience to help you navigate your way through the potential issues involved in becoming a life coach.
