What is life coaching?
Life coaching is the process of assisting individuals in navigating the journey from their current situation to their desired outcomes. It involves establishing and accomplishing objectives across various aspects of life, such as business, health, career, relationships, and work-life balance. Goals can range from general aspirations for increased happiness to specific aims like securing a new job. A life coach employs thought-provoking questions to help clients clarify their goals, assess their present circumstances, explore available options, and determine actionable steps within a set timeframe. The foundation of life coaching lies in the belief that everyone has the potential to reach their goals by recognising and utilising their own resources rather than being instructed on what actions to take.
What is the difference between coaching and
counselling?
There are several distinctions between coaching and counseling, but the most significant difference lies in their focus. Counseling, also known as psychotherapy, aims to understand, address, and heal emotional trauma and pain stemming from the past. In contrast, coaching centers on the present and future. Coaches assist individuals in identifying goals, utilizing personal strengths, and taking action. To put it simply, counseling primarily concentrates on your past with many questions oriented around “Why,” whereas coaching is directed towards the future, prompting inquiries like “How” or “What.”
What do I love most about my job?
Being a life coach feels like I am sharing my gift with others. Engaging in meaningful conversations and exploring life alongside my clients is fulfilling, but it’s those enlightening moments, when they look at me and suddenly grasp something they hadn’t noticed before that truly make me LOVE what I do.
What inspired me to start me own business?
I have come to understand that one of my life’s aspirations is to assist others in their journey and help them progress. I genuinely enjoy being around people, and they often feel comfortable sharing with me. After exploring the life coaching path, it became clear to me that this is my calling, my objective—my Matara. I look forward to collaborating with you as we uncover your own Matara and work towards achieving it together.
Why do my clients work with me?
I work with my clients to explore their objectives, goals, and vision for their future lives. Together, we analyse their current situation and identify the best strategies for moving forward. I empower my clients to chart their own paths that will lead them to their desired outcomes.
Are you providing your services online/remote or face to face?
Since I don’t have an office yet, I prefer offering online services. However, if you’re local (Reading, UK) and prefer an in-person meeting, we can arrange to meet at a mutually agreed location.
What is the cost for this service?
I offer both individual coaching sessions packages (start from £100) and interactive workshops, designed to support your personal growth and development.
To begin, I invite you to book an Introductory Session. This complimentary 30-minute session is an opportunity for us to connect and ensure we’re a good fit to work together. During our time, we’ll explore the areas of your life you’d like to focus on and discuss how I can best support you.
