What is Coaching



Coaching is a distinct approach that differs from advice-giving, counselling, or psychotherapy. While sharing some similarities with counselling and therapy, a life coach's primary role is to ask insightful questions that help uncover the underlying obstacles preventing individuals from achieving their dreams. They then assist in setting strategic goals to guide them towards success. Acting as a supportive guide, a life coach provides an objective perspective akin to a trusted friend or mentor while maintaining an appropriate level of professional distance.

One of the key functions of a life coach is to help clients reframe their thinking and adopt an objective and creative mindset, enabling them to effect positive change. Additionally, life coaches serve as accountability partners and cheerleaders, offering unwavering support during the journey and assisting clients in overcoming life's significant challenges.

Coaches possess the unique ability to offer unbiased guidance, aiding clients in making well-informed decisions to improve both their personal and professional lives. They equip individuals with practical tools and strategies that facilitate progress toward their goals while maintaining a professional outlook.

Coaching is a solution-oriented approach centred around building rapport, holding space, and providing guidance. It is a calm and relaxed process founded on the belief that individuals already possess the necessary resources and skills to achieve success and authenticity. By offering direction, guidance, and the appropriate tools, coaches empower individuals to discover their own solutions and make optimal choices in life.

Through coaching, individuals can tap into their inner reservoirs, unlocking their full potential and becoming the best version of themselves.

If you desire personal growth and improvement, enlisting the help of a life coach can be immensely beneficial. Just as athletes, performers, and successful professionals engage coaches to enhance their performance, you, too, can avail yourself of a life coach's assistance. Coaching is accessible and affordable for everyone. Human beings often struggle with cultivating healthy interpersonal relationships, making this an area where a life skills coach can guide you, providing insights, tools, and strategies for self-improvement. Developing strong interpersonal skills, like driving, is a learnable skill that can be honed with practice.

While many people overlook or find it restrictive and confusing, the Bible serves as a guidebook on how to live an authentic and abundant life. Combining its teachings with ancient philosophy, modern techniques, and personal experiences, I utilize these rich sources to coach individuals towards their personal best.
Coaching sessions can be conducted via phone, internet, or in person. To request a fifteen-minute pre-booking session or obtain further information, visit the contact tab.

Cheers!

A Visit to Toronto’s First Black Church: Happy Black History Month

Faith is a huge part of Black culture. On the last Sunday of Black History Month, I took the liberty of visiting Toronto’s first Black church and establishment—First Baptist Church.  It was a true jubilee. Rev. Dr. Wendell Gibbs's message was powerful and deeply moving. He reminded us of our identity in Christ, declaring, “Black history didn’t begin with slavery or emancipation but in the Genesis beginning.” He also spoke of “The anguish of our ancestors… those who died [so we could have] peace… May humanity never again perpetrate such injustice against humanity. [And] we… vow[ed] to uphold this.” The service reached a pivotal moment when the congregation joined the choir in singing: I’m no longer a slave to fear I am a child of God. Founded in 1826 by formerly enslaved people who sought refuge in Canada, First Baptist Church has long stood as a pillar of the Black community. While the original congregation laid its foundation nearly two centuries ago, the current building, complet...

To help navigate these challenges, I've compiled five practical tips that have personally helped me reduce stress and find balance in my daily life. 1.

Tip: Keep a water bottle at your desk and set reminders to drink water throughout the day. 2. Be Kind to Yourself We are often our harshest critics, which can exacerbate stress. During a partic...
