What is a Life Coach?
A life coach supports people in making changes both internally and externally to live more fulfilled and happier lives. It is a person who helps you identify your goals along with the current obstacles that you are facing, consciously and unconsciously that are limiting you. It is someone that will help you develop a plan of action to achieve your desired goals. World-class athletes, CEOs, entrepreneurs, business leaders, executives and all kinds of professionals use life coaches to gain insight, perspective and support to achieve their goals.
So, exactly what is a life coach? A life coach is a professionally trained individual who can help you unleash your full potential to achieve your desired outcomes.
Aren’t you tired? It’s exhausting searching for peace, love and success, isn’t it? After decades of my own therapy, coaching, self-help workshops, meditation, research, reading and countless other personal development efforts in seeking after truth, I observed that what keeps us stuck away from love and peace in our lives is not any kind of failure on our part, but our tendency to avoid uncomfortable feelings. It’s that simple!
We are taught to fix our feelings or change them to something positive or better. But all that takes away from the reality and recognition that we are already all that we seek. We do not have to go anywhere or change anything. Right now, everything that is going on in our lives, we are whole and complete and are supported by life itself. All that is required is that we relax into this moment, just as it is, even if this moment includes discomfort or pain. This is the difficult part because we live in a society that has never embraced this philosophy and perspective about life, making it up to you to take the first step into a new paradigm of thinking and being.
Life is Messy
Life is messy and our lives will always be cracked, and in surrendering to this we gain the power to see the wholeness that is already present. In Japan, there is an art called Kintsukuroi, which means “to repair with gold”. It is used to highlight the cracks making the object more beautiful. It shows that life will crack us open and through doing so, we become more beautiful through experience.
Integrative life coaching is quite different from conventional coaching and therapy, in so much that it is not about fixing anything because in reality there is nothing to fix. What it is about is discovering the freedom and power that is the present moment. This is the precondition of our existence and therefore our essential nature, and then from this place allowing actions to unfold from that place of Presence.
My approach draws from many different traditions from Jung, Zen, Mindfulness, Taoist philosophy, Transpersonal psychology and Meditation, to name a few. The process is not intellectual, but experiential and therefore the transformation only happens and can only be grasped through living it rather than thinking about it.
Right now, in this very moment, as you read these words, underneath all the things that you think are wrong or where you feel like you are failing or want to improve, everything is as it should be, everything is perfect exactly as it is. What is required is the surrender to this realization to go into what is known as the flow state.
No one can convince you of this. You can only experience it for yourself, through Direct Experience. I invite you to come and experience it.
Life Coaching Is One of the Fastest-Growing Industries
Why? Because having a Life Coach can transform your life. That is the simple answer.
The deeper version is that our modern culture creates and unwittingly perpetuates deep psychological problems for individuals. Personal development isn’t part of our education system, culture and society. You never learned how your mind works, what your emotions are, how to listen to them and how they can help you transform and evolve. No one taught you how to process your feelings and emotions.
Your experiences shape your perception of the world and your identity. Your parents, teachers, guardians and role models taught you many things, but did they ever teach you how to discover who you truly are? And don’t get me wrong, this is not about pointing fingers and blaming. It is about recognizing a problem in our understanding of who we are.
We lack personal development training in our lives; this is made clear by the mere explosive growth in the coaching industry. Too often, we quietly struggle with our inner challenges and do not ask for help. Did you know that many people feel shame about asking for help, even when they need it? Our internal struggles become external ones. We develop harmful and destructive patterns of behaviour. No one wants to admit they are depressed, lonely, hurt or even worse vulnerable. No one wants to say their finances are a shambles or their relationship is just not working, and this list goes on. People are scared to admit that they are scared and then to seek out assistance. Most people worry about what others will think of them; like they have failed if they ask for help. This, however, is not true. It takes a massive amount of courage to admit to just how vulnerable we are. And being vulnerable is, in reality, a fact, not a matter of choice. Consider that for a moment.
Some of the Most Successful People in the World Have a Life Coach
Top athletes seek out the assistance of life coaches to improve their game. Business executives and heads of state use a Life Coach, Executive Coach, or Business Coach. They use them to succeed and stay on top. If the most successful people need a coach, why doesn’t everyone? Coaches help us navigate the neglected parts of our lives because they can see what we can’t. They can help us integrate ourselves, discover who we are and help us align with our goals.
Working with an Integrative Coach represents the next step in personal advancement. It allows for the development, expansion and integration of consciousness. It takes you to the next level and guides you to Empowerment, Alignment, Connection and Being in Control of Your State-of-Being. Having an Integrative Coach helps you achieve results.
How to Achieve Self-Mastery
As the founder of Integrative Coaching, I began my training in the foothills of the Himalayas Meditating for nine to twelve hours a day for six months.

We will also nurture your authentic nature, that true self at your very core that has unlimited potential. You have magnificence and unlimited resources within yourself; I will help you access these.
You already have what you need to succeed. You have what you need to create your dreams. Now it is time for You to become aware of them and how to integrate them into your life so that you can start living the life of your dreams.
