Life & Career Coaching Services

Here is everything you need to know about how a life and career coach can support you:

What is a life and career coach?

A life and career coach is someone who can support you in not only with finding your dream job and building a career you love, but also help you with creating a lifestyle you enjoy as well.

Because your job takes up so much of your time, it’s important to work with someone who can help you integrate your career with other areas of your life so that you create a holistic lifestyle.

What does a life and career coach do?

The first thing your coach will do is help you determine what success means to you. It is critical that you take the time to get a better understanding of what you want from your life so that you can then fit your career into that.

Once you have determined what success means to you, then your coach will take an assessment to better understand what your skills are and what your interests are.

After they have gotten a better understanding of what it is you can be doing in your life, they will then examine what it is you want to accomplish in other areas of your life such as relationships, health, finances, and so on so that by the end of your sessions, your coach will have a good sense of how you may best approach balancing your career and life goals.

During the coaching process, they will:

Help you gain clarity so that you have a clear vision of what you want to accomplish
Provide you actionable steps you can take to help you move forward
Keep you accountable so that you actually follow through on your action items
Guide you towards finding your passion and purpose in life
Give you honest feedback on areas where you may need to make some adjustments
Ask you high quality questions that will challenge you to think about things in new ways
Motivate you to be more focused and self-disciplined with your time management
Give you the courage and confidence you need to face your fears

Do I need a life and career coach?

All professionals can gain a plethora of benefits from working with a professional who can help guide them towards clarity and action.

Here are some reasons you may want to consider a coach:

If you lack an understanding of how to build your life and career the right way
If your life feels overwhelming and confusing
If you are not sure what you want to do
If you feel stuck and have a hard time making decisions
If you lack confidence to go after what you want in life
If you don’t believe you deserve a higher quality of life

Benefits of a life and career coach

One of the main benefits of working with a professional is that they are going to help you build a holistic strategy to your life. Because your career will encompass half of your waking life, its critical that you take the time to think about what it is you want to do with your life to ensure that your job seamlessly fits your personality and lifestyle.

How to find a life and career coach

It is highly advisable that you take the time to clearly write down your main objective in terms of what it is you want to accomplish with your coach and then also write down what qualities you seek in your mentor. After you have gone through this exercise, you should write down up to five questions you will ask your potential coach during your free consultation.

We recommend talking to at least three experts before making a decision.

Life and career coach reviews

Yesterday’s Workshop which was held at the Island Inn Hotel and hosted by the Career Coach was definitely worth attending. The workshop was very informative and well organized. The table setting exercise was really interesting and tested our attentiveness. I also appreciated the little tips to remembering table placement “F.O.R.K” as well as ways in which we can give signals to the waiting staff through the placement of our utensils after or during a meal.
Aside from the very informative workshop which allowed me to identify areas in which I could use a little more practice, the food was very delicious and well prepared! I would definitely recommend this workshop to others.

Bob Britz is an excellent Career Counselor! I was at a crossroad in my career path and Bob gave me the confidence I needed to explore new avenues of employment. Through assessments and guided conversation he helped me find my strengths and interests. In our sessions he helped me to explore my options and make informed career decisions. Bob is especially gifted in the area of networking and giving hands on tools to obtain job opportunities. His help in rewriting my resume was invaluable. Bob is an excellent fit for anyone on a career journey!

Millicent took the time to critique my resume, and make the necessary changes needed to help it stand out. Her response time was quick, and she provided details of her progress daily. I will definitely use her services again, as well as refer other individuals.

The Business workshop was a great experience. It’s easy to Google all the tips and tricks about etiquette and think you are prepared, but the practical portion of the workshop was very eye-opening and gave a breath of life to the topic. I also enjoyed the interactive activities such as the table setting exercise and pop quiz.From the helpful tips from industry professionals to the delicious meals and pleasant environment prepared by the staff at Island Inn Hotel, the workshop exceeded my expectations and I’m excited to practice the skills I’ve acquired, for any upcoming social or business events. I highly recommend this workshop to all young aspiring professionals!!

Extremely through, great to work with and easy to work with – that’s becoming a harder to harder to find trait with most people and businesses. Kaylee has gone above the call of duty (and outside of her working hours) numerous times for me, and really does get the results that you keep reading about. Very positive person – Highly recommended

My experience with Career Coach was a phenomenal one. The initiative workshop was interactive and exciting with loads of information on how to prepare for the workplace. From the beginning straight through to the end of the program I received one on one coaching that enhanced my skills personally and professionally . Because of the program I am now confident of my career directions and how to achieve my career goals. I would recommend Career Coach to anyone now entering the workforce, seeking a career change or wish to advance their career.

She has helped me and my son with his college resume, essays and has also helped find scholarships geared towards his degree program. Great communication! Answers questions promptly. I would recommend Astrid Career Coach.

When you need to put a critical part of your life in a safe pair of hands, the first thing you’ll do is ask a professional in that industry who they would use in order to gain expertise and inside knowledge. Jane and I worked together as career coaches 15 years ago. Not only was I impressed with Jane’s ability, I also heard countless clients praise Jane as their coach and the results they had achieved with her. In the time since we were colleagues, I have turned to Jane for career coaching when I’ve needed assistance with my career. She is consistently great at what she does, helps you quickly get to the issues that are holding you back, and works with you to put together a roadmap with practical tools to enable you to move forward. And she does it with empathy, motivation, intelligence and kindness. I have recommended Jane to a number of friends and colleagues and I highly recommended her to you.

I am so grateful for Millicent’s help with my resume and cover letter! She was generous enough to lead a resume building workshop for our student and alumni group at the end of February. She told me I was selling myself short and helped me get my materials in order. That night, I went home, made the changes she suggested, and submitted my resume to a few places that I had been waiting for because I was really excited about them. The next day, I wake up to an email for a request for an interview, the fastest turn around I’ve had, and two weeks later was offered the position! This job is a complete shift from my previous job but it’s exactly was I was looking for and I couldn’t have done this without Millicent’s help. From now on, I will always recommend her services to anyone looking for a new job. Millicent gets results! Thank you so much!
