Perhaps based on most of my experience coming from real life as opposed to a classroom, I view and practice "coaching" differently than most. It's also based on what I know I needed when I was struggling to make changes. I can now look back with a clear mind and understand what would have helped me most. And I've spent hundreds of hours as a client of various therapists, counsellors, and coaches.

I approach it in a much more simple and direct way; I believe a life coach to be far closer to a traditional athletic coach as opposed to the jargon filled, confusing “models” that the industry is seemingly embracing. I have no time for bullshit, and neither should you...
