• Introduction

  Working with a life coach can empower you to make positive changes in your life. These changes can be in your personal life, fitness level, or professional career. Life coaches don’t typically tell you what to do to make changes. These coaches usually listen to clients and help them see situations from the perspective of an outsider.
  

  
  

  After identifying life areas that clients want change, life coaches hold clients accountable for making those changes. Accountability is achieved by the life coach checking back at scheduled intervals to see what the client has done to make the desired changes. If the client is struggling to make progress when the life coach checks back, the coach typically helps the client work through the issue.

  The amount of help you feel you need can determine if you need a therapist or a life coach. If you’re struggling and feel like you can’t function, consider a therapist. If you’re doing okay overall but think you could do better, a life coach could be a good choice.
