Here is everything you need to know about emotional life coaching:
What is an emotional life coach?
An emotional life coach is someone who has empathy and is sensitive to your emotions while they are coaching you. They understand that many individuals may be a bit more sensitive and therefore need more patience and compassion while working with them.
This person has dedicated their life to helping you become your best self while also cultivating certain skills that allow them to support your needs.
They act as a guide by supporting and nurturing your ability to move forward in your life so that you can get what you want and deserve and no longer live a life filled with regrets.
What does an emotional life coach do?
Like any other coach, their main objective is to help you move forward in your life by achieving the desired outcome or result you seek.
During the coaching process, they will ask you intimate and powerful questions that will help illicit a response from you that will bring clarity to your situation. It is during this discovery process in which they identify certain beliefs and thoughts that are holding you back.
While you are working with them, they will provide a powerful form of reflection and insight that will help guide you to your own truth. Once you have gained this clarity, they will then begin the chunking process where actionable steps will be agreed upon that will make it easier for you to accomplish the necessary steps involved to achieving your desired results.
Your coach can help you:
- Discover clarity and get unstuck from a situation that could be troubling you
- Support you in making better decisions that best serve your authentic self
- Inspire you to face and overcome your fears that may be holding you back
- Keep you accountable for certain things you have committed to
- Give you feedback on how you can improve in certain areas of your life
- Explore certain negative beliefs or self talk that may be holding you back
- Motivate you to do your best and not settle for less than what you deserve

Emotional Life Coach Reviews
“The question was presented: “Were the sessions with Carrie a positive and empowering experience?” My response: Absolutely! Unequivocally, Yes!
Instantly, from the first moment, I felt safe and comfortable with Carrie. Having endured some rough and almost depleting experiences recently, the lack of trust of others was an impenetrable wall I had unknowingly and masterfully constructed. The deconstruction of my well-built walls allowed for an enormous amount of Light to break through and illuminate all that was precious and possible. With Carrie’s direction the sessions were both gentle and invigorating. Her guided meditation opened doors, portals actually, that I didn’t even know were closed, or even that they existed. It is with my deep-felt Gratitude that I share my experience and encourage anyone presented with the opportunity to engage in the coaching experience with Carrie to JUMP! in with all of your heart!”
Thank you, Carrie!
I can’t believe the changes I felt in the first few weeks. Swapping out simple things like what flour I was using, and my sugars had such a huge effect on me almost immediately it seemed. In the first week I was down 6 pounds and 4 inches! I just did my 7 week measurements this morning and I’m down 15 3/4 inches!! 9 3/4 of those inches being from my under bust, waist and lower abs. Crazy!
I’m feeling great! And when I’m sticking to the swaps I feel very confident. I can now taste how sweet some of those “treats” really were that I was eating before, and now they taste TOO SWEET to me.
I will admit I have my slip ups, but I’m trying to remember that it’s all about balance! I only have these slip ups when I skip a prep day and then don’t have readily available healthy snacks. I also find if I don’t have a sweet treat on hand, then I am more likely to cave and have an unhealthy treat. I may need to work on my self control I love this program because I don’t feel restricted! There’s some great alternatives to the yummy treats I like, and the meals are so flavourful!
Thank you Cheryl!
If you want to get yourself in better shape, both physically and mentally, Sara’s going to help you do that. Her workout videos and diet tips combined with an amazing, unfaltering attitude are just some of what make this a great resource for anyone looking to improve themselves.
It doesn’t matter if you’re a man or a woman, large or small, short or tall – the information on her page can help everyone become a better, happier, more satisfied version of themselves. If I had to reduce it all to one word, it would be inspiring. If I’m having a bad day, I’ve always been able to find something here that will help me turn the corner and make it better.
Excellent work Sara, keep it up and God bless!
I think David has a beautiful spirit and energy. I enjoy his daily messages and truly wish I was able to train with him. I think he would help me from an emotional and physical standpoint .
