Telephone life coaching is a chance to pause, take a step back and re-assess your goals and priorities.
This can be useful if you’re feeling overwhelmed, indecisive or unsure about what you want from your future. If you’re feeling unsatisfied or lacking in purpose or direction, life coaching is a chance to work out what you could do differently, and how to do it.
Finding time to reflect on these issues is often the biggest barrier for people who feel something needs to change. Life coaching can give you that physical time and mental space to think clearly and the impetus to take action.
