There may be a sudden awareness of a qualitative difference, for instance, water getting hotter and hotter until it becomes steam, or colder and colder until it solidifies into ice. And each molecule has to go through systematic step-by-step changes to make those differences.

March 20, 2019 by Liz Carter

https://spencerinstitute.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/What-is-Life-Coaching_-Who-are-Life-Coaches_.jpgWhat is a Coach?

  • A coach is an individual who has the tools, focus, wisdom, intent, and knowledge to elicit a client’s values, goals, and beliefs and then is able to create a plan of action and strategies for success toward a defined outcome or result.
  • A coach is someone who is able to remain focused on the client’s outcome without becoming attached to it personally and by maintaining the flexibility required to be an exquisite guide.
  • Being an excellent Certified Life Strategies Coach requires knowledge, compassion, personal congruency, awareness of states of being and strategies of thinking and behaving, plus the ability to present multiple perspectives of a situation from a place of calm support.
  • A coach is a model for success in his/her own life and how he/she lives it. For a coaching client relationship to be effective, the coach must be consistent and trustworthy. This can only be achieved by creating rapport and by demonstrating respect and honesty.

Student Success Stories

Becoming a Certified Life Strategies Coach at the Spencer Institute has been a great way for me to grow my coaching business. I really liked that I could work full time while learning life coaching on my own time schedule. Now I have coaching clients, and also attract more psychotherapy clients who choose me because I can offer coaching in addition to psychotherapy.
