I started out as a life coach when I was 18 and it wasn’t so great. I had social anxiety, I worked as a janitor just to get by. This is me five years ago struggling to get words out; My life was such a mess, why would anyone pay me to help them? That question made me a prisoner in my own mind, cutting me out from being a successful life coach. Though now I have had almost 9000 hours of coaching and have worked with people all around the world I had to break out of that cage. The biggest hurdle of mine was the belief that; I am too young, why would anyone listen to me? If you are starting out as a life coach you know what I am talking about you have your own version of this. The voice that says; why should people listen to me? who am I to tell them anything? Solve this hurdle and you will be able to figure out the rest of your journey yourself. Most people try to overcome it by faking it. The fake it till you make it approach, talk like an authority, an expert. That’s a trap because it’s fake and your clients can sense that. The way I got started out was; Hey, you know what you should be doing, let me help you do that. Let me hold you accountable for that. This way I was not pretending to be an enlightened human; I was just being honest with a pure desire to help the other person. Allow yourself to be vulnerable because only through cracks, your imperfection, your insecurities, can the light escape. It's not about manipulating them to pay you; It’s about can you solve a problem? Can you pour your heart out and try to help the other person the best you can?
