How To Prepare For A Life Coaching Session

What is life coaching? How can they help you on your life’s journey? Mindset coaching is designed for self-improvement with an accountability element. Seeing a life coach can drastically change the course of your life if you are willing to do the work.

How to prepare for a women’s empowerment life coach session is something that needs some deep thought. When you are investing in yourself, you want to make it count. Showing up to meet your coach with no real plan or goal in mind isn’t going to be a successful session.

I suggest when you prepare for a coaching session, you are as open and honest with yourself as you can be. The coaching relationship depends solely on how you show up. If you come to the session and aren’t really willing to discuss your roadblocks, you won’t get very far.

How to prepare for a life coaching session

Setting A Goal

The purpose of seeking a life coach is for help to reach a goal. It is much like why people seek out personal trainers when they want to lose weight. Sure, you can do it all yourself, but when you find a professional coach, you save time and energy.

I find that most often with clients reaching their goal is a matter of clearing multiple limiting beliefs. It is common not to see what is really in the way of achieving your greatest desires. Through the female empowerment coaching process, the discovery is often yourself that is in the way.

Coming to the session with a written goal in mind is an ideal way to come prepared!

Notebook & Pen

When preparing for your coaching session, it is smart to bring along a pen and paper. It is easy at the moment to forget all that is being uncovered. Having your notebook handy is necessary to record your next action steps and plan for the coming week.

Remember, a life coaching session is not like therapy. A professional coach is here to take you, and your life plans forward. Come ready to map out your dream life!

Questionnaires / Intake Forms

Most likely, your coach will want to make sure you are a good fit to work together, so they may ask you to fill out a questionnaire. Personally, I ask all my clients to be open and honest when completing the questionnaire. I am very serious about my ability to help my clients. Mindset coaching works when the intent for help is made clear in the beginning.

Progress Reporting

After a life coaching session, you will want to note the changes you are implementing and the results you are getting. These small steps may seem like nothing at first, but even coming to see a life coach is a monumental step in changing your life’s direction.

Your progress report is also a time to review with the coach if you feel that your action plan is a good fit for your life. It is not uncommon for you to change your goals even after seeing a life coach for weeks.

I have personal experience going to see someone in hopes to achieve one goal and leaving with an entirely different plan altogether. The magic of the coaching progress can reveal things you weren’t necessarily looking for.
