What is Life Coaching?
Life Coaching is an action oriented process that helps you improve the quality of your life both personally and professionally. It helps you learn about yourself in order to reach your highest potential
iPEC’s (Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching) Core Energy Life Coaching process helps you discover your inner purpose and passion and connect that to outer goals and strategies to bring about extraordinary and sustainable results.
What is coaching?
Basically coaching is an opportunity for growth. You can apply coaching to any area of your life. The possibilities are endless.
Relationships:
Develop better communication with your children or spouse.
Deal with an ailing parent.
Repair difficult friendships.
Maintain or develop a productive working relationship with co-workers, employees or a boss.
Life Goals:
Enjoy a smoke free lifestyle.
Be healthy and fit.
Raise your energy level.
Run a marathon.
Open your own business.
Discover your purpose in life.
What coaching is not.
Coaching is not therapy or counseling. Counseling aims to heal mental and psychological issues and often examines PAST events. It usually centers on diagnosing a ‘problem’ that needs to be addressed. Coaching involves no such diagnosis and in fact, coaches only see opportunities, not problems. Coaches shift the focus from “why” to “how.” Coaching is very results oriented, maintaining a focus on the current situation and actively developing plans for the FUTURE.
Counseling focuses on helping people to live functional lives. Coaching focuses on helping functional people live extraordinary lives.
And Now, the Difference Between Coaching and Great Coaching!
As a certified iPEC coach, I practice Holistic Coaching. iPEC coaches recognize that everything is connected, and that making a change in one area without considering the effect of that change in other aspects of life doesn’t give the best chances for success. The Core Energy Coaching process, which challenges you to focus on what you really want, explores the intricate and always changing HOLISTIC perspective of your life.
It is Future-Focused. Counseling and therapy work on healing past issues. The past can’t be ignored – after all, what happened in the past makes you who you are today. iPEC’s Core Energy Coaching Process helps clients “visit” the past in order to identify and remove barriers to taking positive action, something that many individuals accomplish only after years of therapy.
Coaches make clients aware of how the past shapes the present – and helps them to move to the future they desire.
