Finding the proper life coach can transform your personal and professional happiness and progress. But with so many alternatives, how can you pick the correct one? 

Let's discuss some crucial stages to finding your perfect partner.

• Before starting your search for a Qualified Life Coach, consider your goals. Understanding what you want to achieve will help you locate a coach that suits you.

• Once you know your goals, do your homework. Many coaches adhere and follow the ethical code of larger organizations like ANZCAL for instance. Credentials show training and professional devotion but they are not everything. Remember to check their websites, social media, and books. 

• The most important part about finding a coach that is right for you is finding someone with whom you have a genuine connection. The  first consultations are free with most life coaches. Use these to gauge their coaching style and personality. You want to see if you have chemistry and can see yourself working together.

• Trust and compatibility are crucial in chemistry. You will share personal information and work closely with your coach, so you must feel comfortable with them. If something feels off, or the first conversation doesn't flow well, he or she probably isn't the person to guide you further.

• Evaluate their availability and pricing. Paying more doesn't mean they are any better at coaching you, they may simply have a different business model. 

If the figures seem high at first, ask yourself this: what is my happiness/success/personal growth and healing worth to me?  

Picking the right international life coach is absolutely worthwhile. An effective coach can help you literally turn your life around. Please take your time, investigate, and trust your intuition. Your ideal coach is waiting.
