We don't have that any more, particularly in Australia, where we're an immigrant society, a splintered society. It has been said that life coaching takes you from being the passenger in your life to being the driver. The journey, in the case of Results Life Coaching, is a 12-week program where client and coach are bound by a commitment contract, which is centred around three goals. These are established and mutually agreed upon in the first session. A lot of energy gets put into the system and sometimes I use the metaphor of pushing the railway engine.
Coaches are the ultimate ally.
Their attention is unwavering, their gale relentless. And once you've set the goals, there's no going back. The relationship between a client and a coach is a highly specific one, and the key, according to professionals, is about maintaining focus amid the chaos. It's exciting to say the least. In any given week, a Life coach could be helping a 45 year-old woman get her driver's licence, engage in some lateral thinking with a merchant banker, or help a young client trace her birth father.
