Feeling stuck? Spinning your wheels? Deflated and not sure how to move forward?

Here is how a life and business coach can rocket launch you out of the slump so you can be the person you want to be and create the impact you want to make on the world.

As a Professional Certified Coach through the International Coach Federation with six years of coaching people who have all experienced slumps, these are three ways I’ve found coaches help their clients to get unstuck.

Low tolerance for the negative

You might be surprised how many people can get stuck in the negative thought spiral or a negative a loop. A life and business coach stops that cold and gets you focused instead on moving forward. People who vent with their coach may hear this, “Would you like to use this next hour to vent, or would you like to figure out some ways to move forward on this amazing vision you’ve shared with me?” 99 times out of 100, they want to move forward. And sometimes a person just needs to vent, and that’s ok too.

Help you adapt more quickly

When you work with a life and business coach, you have a sounding board, someone to brainstorm with. A good coach will also ensure that you set goals you’ll actually achieve (instead of setting yourself up for accidental failure). Having the accountability of a life and business coach can really accelerate your success. In addition, coaches who have received training from a reputable and accredited organization have a bevy of tools to support you.

You’re not alone

Imagine having someone in your corner. Someone neutral and unattached. They aren’t your clients, your staff members, or your family or friends. It’s a person you will feel comfortable sharing some vulnerabilities.
