What is a Life Coach
A life coach is a person that works in partnership with an individual to help them reach their potential across all facets of life.
A life coach works with coaching clients to help them make improvements in their lives and move out of their stuck states. A life coach assumes that the client has the knowledge within themselves to make the improvements and the coach works more as a facilitator than as a counselor.
