Life and Relationship Coaching

"A process whereby the coach assists the client to improve the quality of his or her life”
-- Dave Ellis, Author, Lecturer & Life Coach

"Personal and professional coaching…how people who seek help with life transitions find a ‘helper’ to partner with them in designing their desired future.”
-- Patrick Williams & Diane S. Menendez, Authors of Becoming a Professional Life Coach: Lessons from the Institute for Life Coach Training

"Much like a personal weight trainer, a life coach is there to support the client’s efforts in achieving the kind of life he or she wants.”
--Chris Gengo

A life coach is someone who will listen fully, without judgment, provide unconditional acceptance, provide a larger vision, inspire creativity, expand possibilities and provide a full commitment to you, the client. Perhaps most importantly, life coaches provide a constant reminder that one’s life is a celebration.

The foundations of coaching go back many centuries. Improving one’s life, what we would today call “personal development”, traces its roots to Greek society. The Greek philosopher, Socrates, summed it up with his famous quote, “The unexamined life is not worth living.”

What Life and Relationship Coaching is NOT:

• NOT therapy or counseling (dealing with past, feelings/emotions based)
• NOT consulting (telling you what to do)
• NOT mentoring (older person passing knowledge/experience to younger person)

Some Questions a Coach Might Ask:

• What areas of your relationship could be upgraded/tweaked?
• What could we work on now that would make the biggest difference in your personal relationships (partner, friend, family)?
• What are you tolerating/putting up with?
• What is stopping you from having the kind of relationship you dream of?
• What do you want MORE of in your life? (make a list)
• What do you want LESS of in your life? (make a list)
• How could you make this goal more specific or measurable?
• What would be the biggest impact from achieving your goal(s)?
• For your life to be perfect, what would have to change?
• What’s one change you could made in your relationships that would give you more peace?
