Continuing education and self-coaching for life coaches are critical to advancing your skill-set even after you’ve finished life coach school. Self-coaching is a process of being able to evaluate your own life’s strengths and weaknesses, set new intentions and goals, and start seeing progress--all while addressing the challenges that come up along the way.

People have confusion over what life coaching is. How is it different than therapy or counseling? On today’s episode, I’m getting into how to explain life coaching to people, including how I suggest you handle coaching skeptics.

A few highlights:

• Be discerning when talking to people who are committed to being skeptical about life coaching—because no matter how well you explain it, if someone has already made up their mind about “what life coaching is,” they are not likely to shift their opinion. In fact, paradoxically, they may dig in on their skepticism even more.
• One way to explain coaching is to highlight how it is different than therapy, since therapy is a profession more people are familiar with.
• Being confident at explaining what life coaching is will help you not only in personal situations when you meet new people or when family members ask what you do, it will also help you when you meet potential clients who are curious about life coaching.

In this episode, I'm getting into what I and every other successful coach I've met has struggled with, and sharing how to navigate it so that you can see success with your coaching business.
