Life Coaching Essentials (RALC)

Alexander-the-Great never had a Life Coach but he valued learning so highly, that he used to say he was more indebted to Aristotle for giving him knowledge than to his father Philip for life. In our times, many people often mistake a life coach for a mental health professional, such as a psychiatrist or a therapist. This misconception often leads people to believe they do not need a life coach since they feel as though nothing is wrong with their mental health. However, a life coach is designed to help improve a person’s professional and personal life by working with them to achieve their goals.

WithREAD’s Life Coaching Essentials workshop, participants will discover the meaning of life coaching and how life coaching services can be utilized to achieve their goals.
