Passionate about empowerment

If you want to empower others to achieve their goals and improve their lives, then becoming a certified life coach is a career you will excel at.

Life coaching is not only about giving advice, it’s far more than this. The ability to develop strong and impactful relationships with your clients are essential if you are to help and guide them in achieving their goals.

As a life coach, you will understand your client, their mental stumbling blocks and the changes they’ll need to make to improve their life. Your job is to be the motivator, the mentor and the stable presense that guides them and helps them navigate their path.

A client may come to you unhappy about the direction of their personal life or frustrated by the direction their career is taking, they may not be working to their maximum potential or they may simply be overwhelmed and not know what to do next. This is where you will shine! Being a life coach requires you to develop a wide range of skill and wear many hats so you empower your clients to fulfil their potential.

Tap into their potential

Life coaches provide an extensive range of invaluable services for millions of people worldwide. Clients approach life coaches for various reasons, though don’t always know exactly what they want to achieve.

They know there’s something about their life they’d like to improve, or perhaps something that’s holding them back. The job of the life coach being to help clients pinpoint problems in their lives, identify obstacles standing in their way and empower them to fulfil their objectives. The life coach also plays an important role helping clients establish immediate and long-term objectives in the first place.

Rather than ‘curing’ patients in the traditional sense, life coaches believe every client already has it within themselves to achieve even the most ambitious goals. It’s simply a case of tapping into their hidden potential and eliminating every obstacle barring their progress.

You are starting a business, not a hobby

Starting a coaching business is hard. I know you know this, because if it was easy, you’d have done it already. But seriously, it’s REALLY hard. It’s not for the faint of heart, or for the fly by night. It takes commitment, perserverance and iron will.

Why are we telling you this? Because it’s important to start with your eyes open. It will be the hardest, most tiring, scariest, and most incredible thing you ever do in your life (barring maybe marriage, kids and making your first million of course! :)). But you can do it!

We know the burning question you want answered is: “how much money can I make as a life coach?” and the answer is…. it depends. It depends on your location, your commitment, how much work and effort you put in and how serious you are. The average fees charged range from $75 per hour across Asia and Africa up to $500 per hour across North America, Europe and Australia.

Just ten hours coaching income per week can make a huge difference to your financial freedom!

A selection of the most commonly asked questions

The programme takes a blended learning approach.  You will have weekly pre-recorded video lessons and weekly live classes.

You should set aside about 3 hours per week for study.

As part of the programme we will guide you and advise you on the different routes you can take when starting your coaching business.

No. Once you enroll in the programme you’re committed to us and we are committed to you.

We work with you to ensure that you are confident and competent every step of the way. We are invested in your success – as you are – and therefore have regular sessions to ensure that you’re on-track, able to implement the learning and to answer any questions you may have.

That depends on your market and the country where you live.  There are life coaches who make 6 figure income in the US and UK, coaches who make 3 lacs a month in India and coaches who make 500k shillings a month in Kenya.

No business anywhere is guaranteed to find clients.  Every business both established and new have to focus on business development, if they didn’t there would be no need for sales teams!

However, the life coaching market is new and exciting and is a market that is attracting a lot of attention from potential clients across the world.  People are becoming more focussed on their ambitions, their goals and their mental health in terms of work and life balance, this is where you come in!

Life coaching is the unbrella term for a number of different coaching types.

Life coaches sometimes focus on a particular niche such as Executive Coach, Business Coach, Career Coach or Relationship Coach.

Some life coaches focus on spiritual coaching and confidence coaching.  So essentially anyone with the passion to help others achieve the best version of themselves can be a life coach.

Given the lack of regulation, you can simply put up a website and declare yourself to be a coach without any kind of training or qualification; you may even be a good coach without any training.

But generally we believe that a good training programme is crucial in equipping you with both the confidence to really support your clients and the techniques and tools you need to be effective.

Most importantly though, your clients will want the peace of mind and trust element of you being a fully accredited and certified coach.
