become a life coach

Now I have completed Landmark Education Curriculum for living, which is a powerful practical coaching course. No theory – it’s all coaching in action. I chose it over the Coach U Advanced course and am so glad I did. Landmark Education has helped me define what sort of coach I want to be and now clients are flowing to me.

I got a part-time job at Starbucks so that I had a paycheck and health insurance while I build up my practice. That has been a wonderful experience and has booted me through my ‘reverse culture shock’ from returning to America after living thirty years in London.

I will now divide my time between Florida and Mexico, eventually living full-time at my beautiful pink house in San Miguel de Allende.

Looking back, it has taken me a decade to get to this point. Life is long, so don’t be impatient. Remember, you are always right where you’re meant to be. Yay! Life is great and I’m a great Life Coach. I always knew it was so.

Taken a weekend course which I enjoyed, feel that I must get the right training and have been researching coaching companys. Going to talk to some coaches, try and visit somenoe who works in same field I want to embark on. I have to sort out some funding and then I’m going for this goal so that I can help others challenge their own lives!

I’ve been wanting to figure out what I’d like to do for some time now. I did want to be a counselor, but I think Life Coach is more the direction I want to go into. I want to be able to help people create manageable goals and then help them conquer them! :-D

I’ve been searching all these years, looking for the purpose of my existence. Along the way, I’ve met many different people in many walks of life. I’ve opened many different fields and wasn’t able to pick one thing to focus on…that is, until I looked up life coach. I feel that I’ve finally found what I’ve been looking for all these years. Everything just feels like it’s falling into the right places and so I’m am heading towards this path now!

I’ve researched a bit on how to get started, is school and being accredited really that necessary? I’ve been doing it for free with my friends for a few years already and I’ve continuously research on building up my own self by going to seminars, books, and any type of learning opportunities.

Please feel free to give me any suggestions on how I can grow my seed more effectively.

Thank Q in advance!

Reflect therapy…
LIFE!! (you need Life experience more than anything in this line of work!!)Experienced Life coach and Therapist.
I have few basic Qualifications such as :”Counseling cert” and “Everyday Physcology cert”,but mainly use my “LIFE” experiences to help Clients. people are more interested and feel “Comfortable” if they know you can understand and “relate to” where they are and have been in their lives, rather than all the Certificates and Qualifications you have…They want a trustworthy, Non Judgmental understanding person, but someone who can also be firm and tell them like/how you see it so that they can start to make good choices and changes.
I have been working as a “Life coach since 1996, and absolutely love it! I felt this is what I was “called to do” I enjoy what I do as it is very rewarding knowing you have helped people and changed lives!
my business is called “Reflect Therapy” – taken from the work “Reflection”
as we all know we need to REFLECT on ourselves and do the work within US before we can look at others, as everything starts with YOU!
I am based in Mt Wellington, Auckland NZ, I run a Mobile therapy Van, which has my office built in the back so I can go to the customer rather them try to come to me when needed. I work evenings only.
I found that people think of their Issues more at nights and are more relaxed than the daytime, as this is when there minds are more focused on work or other things. I work in all fields, Inner child therapy, Relationships, Mental Health, Addictions, and more…Most Life-Related Issues/Concerns.I’am Christian based, but open to all.
Any info or questions you may have, please feel free to ask! I’am a busy person, so may not be able to answer all questions asked, but will do my best! GOOD LUCK to all who have the desire to do what I’am doing! Its fun, Rewarding and you wont regret it! Take care,
Annmarie

REFLECT REDIRECT REBUILD

- take co-active fundamentals course at CTI
- practice coaching sessions
- take another coaching course
- build coaching network
- save up for certification
- start a coaching-related blog
- develop products and pricing structure
- build coaching client base
- launch coaching website and business
- market coaching business

This is not only my passion, but my purpose! How do I get out of the “working for the man” and start working for myself? Where do I start? Do I need to be certified? There are so many online courses out there…I found a great local (Healing Arts) school, but I need to manifest $2K for tuition.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Also, looking for a mentor that is a Life Coach looking to take someone under their wing. I live in the Phoenix, AZ area.
Thank You!

Decided that maybe this isn’t as important as I thought it was. I’ve decided on a career change. :)

do it

I have decided that life coaching is the perfect career path for me but now I can’t decide on the best training option I should choose. I would like to become accredited as soon as possible and I would like to not have to spend my entire kids college fund to get accredited. Any suggestions?????
