A life coach is someone who has been


professionally trained to assist you in
realising your full potential and
achieving your desired outcomes. Life
coaches motivate individuals to set
objectives, hold accountability, and
encourage them to hone their skills.

There are various types of coaching in which life coaches specialize in. The different
types of coaching can be classified broadly in 10 different categories. This article
will discuss many instances in which coaching can be beneficial and even provide
tips on how to determine the type of life coach you want to be.

In order to make it easy for you to discover the type of life coach you aspire to be,
the various specializations have been systematically categorized. Use the handy
filters below to browse through the different categories of coaching.

“I absolutely believe that people, unless coached, never reach their maximum
capabilities.” – Bob Nardelli

So keep reading to unravel more about the different types of coaching. 


What Is A Coach?
A coach is like a mirror that reflects your ambitions and potential. When you
try to achieve something new, you want someone with you on the journey.

Think of a coach as a guide who takes you from where you are now to where
you want to be. It could be a mentor, a teacher, or just a person you share
ideas with.

All that matters is that you get to where you want to be, and that’s exactly
what a coach will do.

It could be a state where they have realised their career goals, a state where
they have a lot of fulfilling relationships, or maybe, it’s a state where they
experience inner tranquillity and feel empowered.

A coach helps you take this vision and manifest it into reality.

Why Should You Become A Coach?


Being a coach is not an easy job, but it’s not impossible either. Imagine
being the person responsible for the other person to achieve their goals and
dreams.

Imagine being a conduit through which someone can attain their targets. The
responsibility is huge and it is not strange for one to get overwhelmed by it.

However, if you are the kind of person who loves to have this kind of
responsibility if you are the type of person who gets satisfaction from giving
themselves over completely to the service and happiness of others if you are
the kind of person who gets a smile on their face when they see the look of
gratitude on your client’s face, then you should definitely become a coach.
