What’s the Difference Between Life and Career Coaching?
If I’m honest with you, if we are to do a comprehensive job, I don’t think there IS much difference between life and career coaching.
When people have come to me for life coaching, that has always included their careers.
When people come to me for career coaching, as they have done for 15 years, we always discuss their lives.
Humans are complete systems, and you cannot deal with people’s careers in isolation – tweak the career, and it will massively impact their lives.
When significant things happen in their lives, this will impact their career.
Take the lid off a human in each career coaching session, and what we find is pretty astonishing.

All of it is good and important, and when we have worked through the layers, all of it will lead to a good career choice.
Ignore all the rest of it, and the career choice will be misinformed.
Include all of it; the career choice will be well-informed and accurate. Dismiss any of what is showing up, and the career decision will be off-target.
So, the difference between life and career coaching is simply the intended outcome – set your outcomes and let go of the process in between. We will work with whatever arises so that you can make a good career choice going forward.
