The answers to these six frequently asked questions would guide you to find the right fit for you.

First of all, let’s get clear with the definition.

1.) WHAT IS A LIFE TRANSITION COACH?

A Life Transition Coach is a coach who specialises in helping you navigate change and transition in your life. As we are living in the new normal, a world with increased Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity, more and more people are looking for a life transition coach.

2.) WHAT DOES A LIFE TRANSITION COACH DO? 

• Shift the stress and anxiety into creativity and actionable solution plans.

• Identify the inappropriate behavioural patterns that have been sabotaging your personal and professional life, consciously or unconsciously.

• Release the emotional baggage that’s been pulling you back, making ways for more empowering emotions to flow in and push you forward.

• Reprogram the mind with empowering mindset, belief systems, values and rules of life that would bring out your best self.

• Recondition yourself to do the unfamiliar, over and over again until you become the upgraded version of yourself, so you can create a lasting change in your life.

3.) WHEN DO YOU NEED A LIFE TRANSITION COACH?

• You are an executive leader who has worked hard and achieved tremendous success in your carer, but now, you no longer enjoy what you do, it no longer gives you the fulfilment and growth, you want out because you feel like you have a greater calling, you are seeking new meaning in your life. You are afraid of the uncertainty in the path of the unknown and unfamiliar, but you want to Crystallise your vision and Create a purposeful life with more passion, freedom, and happiness.

• You are an independent, smart, goal-getter career woman who experienced a life setback, you lost your marriage recently and you feel like you’ve lost everything.

• You are a professional who feels lost and stuck in a boring job. You want to change your job but you don’t know what to do. You hate having Monday Blues, feeling miserable on the weekdays and living for the weekends. You feel frustrated and it impacts other areas of your life (career, relationship, emotional wellbeing). You want to get paid doing what you love but you don’t know how to transition yourself safely.

• Whether you have lost a loved one, had relationship breakup, career change, moving to a new country, it usually comes with high uncertainty, fear, and anxiety. Some people will resort to shut-down and run away from their challenges because the human mind is wired to have safety, comfort, and certainty. A skilled Life Transition Coach is trained to help you navigate these hurdles, help you co-create the future you want and make it possible.

4.) WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO ENGAGE A LIFE TRANSITION COACH? 

When you say yes to the following questions:

• Are you ready to take control of your life through intensive inner work, to let go of unworthy emotional baggage that’s been pulling you back, and allow your best self to show up?

• Are you willing to commit and not looking for an easy ride?

• Do you want a guide who can create a safe space for you to navigate your fears and uncertainty, so you can turn your fears into freedom, allowing you to move forward with concrete plans, turning the uncertainty into certainty?
