One of biggest fears of many aspiring to become a holistic life coach is “can I help someone if I’m still trying to help myself?”.
The answer is YES. Life experience, an open mind, and a love of personal growth is the BEST prerequisite for becoming a holistic life coach! You don’t need to have it all figured out to share your own insights, lessons learned and the practical tools that helped you pave a way forward or get unstuck.
You only need to be on the path to personal growth and have a desire to help support others with a proven framework, skilled communication, and the tools to facilitate mindset and behaviour change. You don’t need to possess all the answers or be a guru!
A lot of people wish their lives, career or relationships were different. They might even know what they need to change. But knowing this doesn’t make change actually happen – you likely already know this from plenty of trial and error yourself!
But imagine, with the correct training, knowing how to get clear on what you want your life, career and relationships to be like instead and designing a strategic plan with purpose, excitement and accountability that creates daily actions to take you from where you are to where you want to be?! You’d feel more capable and ready – and with practice – ultimately more confident in your abilities to truly help people.
A holistic life coach helps their clients achieve greater heights in their personal or professional lives where they have not been able, or don’t know how, to achieve on their own.
There’s no doubt coaching is fast building traction as a popular career or personal development pathway. It’s rated as the second fastest growth industry in the world (2016, Forbes).
Coaching is a blend of various psychological approaches that include self-help, personal growth, counselling and neuro-linguistic programming (NLP). Holistic coaching includes a wider lens of all life aspects and facets: mind, body, emotions, spirit.
Coaching isn’t about goal setting though. It’s about goal achieving.
Professional coaching gives you clarity, confidence and the ability to take what you ‘know’ and turn it into action. Imagine providing that hope, passion and fulfillment for others! To know HOW to help them create change in their lives!
