What is Coaching?

Coaching is a unique profession with many interesting aspects. Unlike other professions, working with a coach is an investment with an expected return on one's life or a part of one's life. Because clients invest a substantial amount of time and money into the coaching process, and agree to be accountable for action, they immediately demonstrate a commitment to participate and get results. With the help of the coach, a results-oriented professional, people get powerful, measurable, and oftentimes miraculous results that last. 

Why does it work?

These days, people usually look for coaches for two reasons. First, due to the growing awareness of the profession, more and more people in all walks of life are considering working with a coach to try a cutting-edge modality that offers new possibilities for success. The second reason comes from what they know or have heard: coaching works! People are realizing that it just makes good sense to have the assistance of someone who's non-judgmental, a good listener, and capable of thinking outside-the-box to help them make their lives more manageable and enjoyable.

What sets Life Touch Coaching apart from everyone else?

Great question – and an important one. Here are the top five reasons to consider Life Touch Coaching:

1. Certified as Professional Coaches by the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC), Life Touch Coaches are trained in a unique process within the profession of coaching known as Core Energy Coaching. This  deep and transformational process was developed by iPEC's founder and was produced after nearly 20 years of research and development. Adding to already established paradigms from the coaching profession, Core Energy Coaching was created and developed from multiple disciplines and fields such as: consulting, psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, Reiki, mentoring, metaphysics, quantum mechancis, various learning theories, emotional intelligence, leadership development, and from decades of experience in the field and science of spiritual awareness and consciousness.
2. Core Energy Coaching uses the best of these modalities to create a unique client relationship. This relationship is a powerful alliance - a partnership of sorts – to help clients better manage their lives, create greater fulfillment, and identify and live their dreams.
3. Core Energy Coaching focuses on change and accepts that change will always occur. And although change is not necessarily controllable, our impressions of it and reactions to it are. It isn't easy for any of us to deal with our sometimes rapidly changing lives. The coaching relationship with Life Touch Coaching will help you not only manage, but thrive in the face of change.
4. Your Life Touch Coach is also certified as an Energy Leadership Index Assessment Master Practitioner. (Quite a mouthful, isn't it?) Energy Leadership is the process that develops a personally effective style of leadership that positively influences and changes not only yourself, but also those with whom you work and interact, your organization, and even your family and friends. If you don't think of yourself as a leader, you're limited in your thinking, Leading is the way we help move people, including ourselves, into action. The question is not whether or not we're leaders, but how well we lead.
5. Using the Core Energy Coaching process in tandem with Energy Leadership, Life Touch Coaching brings out the absolute best in its clients, be it a person, couple, family, executive, business owner or corporation. This process is done by connecting one's inner purpose and passion with their outer goals and tasks to bring about extraordinary and sustainable results.

Are there professional standards for the Coaching industry?

Absolutely, yes! Within the profession are core competencies, a code of ethics, and an accreditation process put forth by the International Coach Federation, the leading global organization dedicated to advancing the coaching profession.

Further, a coach believes in the dignity and integrity of every human being and is committed to elicing the inherent capability and resources of every individual. A coach pursues, through an interactive process, the development of client-designed strategies and solutions, which move you toward the rapid attainment of your goals. A coach is respectful and protective  the vulnerability of each client, while constructively holding you to a standared of self-responsibility and accountability. The coach maintains an objectivy and competence where he or she claims it and practices in the best interests of the client, the community, and society.
