Overview
of The Life Coach Program™
This
two-month program contains all of the educational
hours a coach needs to qualify for the first
level of ICF Certification, which is an
ACC, "Associate Certified Coach".
And perhaps more importantly, the program
holds the high level of focus and support
needed for the new coach to gain the competence
and confidence to start their successful
coaching practice.
This
8-Week LIFE COACH PROGRAM™ Includes:
- 5-day
- COMPREHENSIVE COACHING COURSE &
- 7
week - BUILD A PRACTICE TeleCourse
Each
Life Coach Program is open to a maximum of
18 participants.
This means you are in a small and intimate
group where in-depth sharing and learning
can take place. Each participant is as dedicated
to their spiritual path as you are to yours.
It is an environment where all spiritual paths
are honored and no one path is held as the
only way to be spiritual.
Coach
For Life utilizes certified and highly trained
facilitators for all coach training &
certification courses. The facilitators have
been certified in Coach For Life's Fulfillment
Coaching Model™, trained as an Inspired Learning
Facilitator, and have established successful
coaching practices.
The
beauty of the Life Coach Program is that you
can be up and coaching within the first week
with all the tools, confidence and support
you need. The Program has been designed to
make sure that your first week as a new coach
is filled with all the information, experience
and support you need to start coaching now.
The
following 7 weeks are focused on integrating
and expanding all that you have learned during
the first week. You also learn how to attract,
market to, and enroll clients into your coaching
practice. The real-life peer-coaching relationships
that continue over these two months allow
you to experience how a coaching relationship
evolves and begins to mature.
The
Life Coach Program consists of two phases:
1. In-Person
5-day Comprehensive Coaching Course
During
the five-day, in-person Comprehensive
Coaching Course, you are totally immersed
in this unique and honoring Inspired Learning
Environment™
where you receive a complete week of coaches
training along with real-life practice sessions
of coaching and being coached. No role-play
coaching takes place during this two-month
Program -- only real-life coaching!
This
is a great way to get started coaching. You
receive all the core coaching skills, structures,
coaching forms, philosophy and firsthand experience,
as well as start the conversation of filling
your coaching practice, all at one time. It's
a great jump-start to put your dream into
practice now!
2. TeleCourse Integration
Portion
7-week Build A Practice TeleCourse
Now
that you can see the larger picture and have
all the pieces, the same group of participants
continue into the next 7-week Build
A Practice TeleCourse. Coach For
Life supports you in integrating these pieces
into your real life. You will receive guidance
to personalize your coaching practice and
how to begin to consciously design how you
choose to serve the world through the profession
and philosophy of coaching. Throughout this
segment of the course you are provided with
a peer-coach and a peer-client as well as
the weekly 2 hour group sessions.
Essential
Curriculum Ingredients of The Life Coach Program
Coach
For Life's curriculum has been designed to
include what we have experienced as the most
essential components that will support our
participants in launching their new career
as a coach and/or integrating coaching skills
into their existing career.
How to Get Paying Clients
This is one of the most essential
aspects of starting a coaching practice. Unique
training techniques are initiated in the first
week that ease you into a remarkably genuine
offering of your services. Integration continues
during the weekly telecourse sessions strengthening
the number one way of enrolling clients and
expanding the numerous paths you may choose
to a successful practice.
The cornerstone of Coach
For Life’s unique coaching skills and processes
is the FULFILLMENT COACHING MODEL™ that
operates on the principle that we are always
both seeking and being drawn to greater levels
of fulfillment. One of the concepts offered
within the FULFILLMENT COACHING MODEL™
is that we are all being called to our highest
level of fulfillment through an innate knowingness
of our own truth and gifts that we are here
to share. This concept is the foundation that
attracts the clients that are perfectly suited
for you and your successful coaching practice.
Have Your Own Coach
Having your own personal peer-coach
is a huge boon in supporting new coaches to
create a successful coaching practice! So
Coach For Life provides you with your own
peer-coach. During the five-day In-Person
seminar you receive over a month's worth of
one-on-one coaching. And during the integration
phase of your training you have your own personal
peer-coach to support you each week towards
your own personalized creation of your coaching
practice.
This is an essential aspect
of being able to present yourself to the world
as a coach. The number-one way to enroll people
into your vision of the magnificence of being
coached is to be able to share the passion
of your own personal self discovery path as
facilitated by a coach. Without that personal
experience, without the personal conviction
and passion, there may be no juice behind
the vision.
So our program gives you the
opportunity to get juiced by your own personal
experience of being coached for two whole
months! And there is no additional cost to
you for this coaching. It is included in the
price of the program.
Clients to Coach
What good is all this training
if you don't have an opportunity to start
coaching and keep coaching! Finding clients
can be one of the most challenging aspects
of becoming a coach. So the two-month Life
Coach Program is structured to provide a peer-client
for you to coach during the first couple of
months.
This can make a huge difference
in new coaches' ability and willingness to
put themselves out to the world to serve as
a coach. You not only see how much value there
is to be received as a client from a coaching
relationship but you get to experience the
value YOUR coaching can deliver to someone
else!
It is so important for a new
coach to see that they can provide that type
of value to another by serving as their coach!
You will be able to hear from your client
what they are gaining from having you as their
coach. Based on this feedback, and fired up
with that confidence, you can tell other people
interested in hiring you as their coach what
value they could find in working with you.
Coach For Life provides you
with tremendous support in honing your skills
as well as developing your confidence and
knowingness to market yourself as a coach.
The Coach For Life Graduate
Community
Program Participants -
You start building your coaching community
from day one of the five-day in-person seminar.
After bonding and getting to know each other
for the first five days, you continue on with
this same group for the rest of the two-month
program. And remember there is a maximum of
18 participants - so you get an opportunity
to really know each other. Lifelong relationships
have begun within this Program.
Free CFL Grad On-line Community
- Upon completing the five-day training
you will be invited to join the Coach For
Life's on-line community. There is a bountiful
group of experienced coaches that have been
contributing and sharing their expertise through
this vehicle, and they are just waiting to
welcome you and share what they have learned
with you. There is no charge to belong --
just your voluntary choice to sign up and
enjoy the community!
-
Within this community, there
is a large amount of information accumulated
to support you in getting your coaching
practice up and filled. For instance, Coach
For Life coaches have contributed examples
of the letters of introduction they used
to acquire coaching clients, outlines and
handouts for speaking to community groups,
and complete seminars they have offered.
You will also find papers prepared by our
Certified Life Coaches as part of their
certification program. WOW! What a resource!
And there's more!
Free CFL Grad Connection
- There is also FREE continuing education.There
are sessions held each month presented by
CFL Grads that cover being a coach and building
a coaching practice. This is a magnificent
vehicle that, again, is provided free of charge
to Coach For Life graduates. This CFL Grad
Connection is great for keeping CFL graduates
in the conversation of coaching, feeling connected
and having access to up-to-date resource information.
Spiritual Perspective
Being a 'Spiritual Coach' creates
unlimited potential. The Fulfillment
Coaching Model™ is the ideal coaching
model for the individual who desires to combine
their Life Coaching and their spiritual beingness.
Being a Spiritual Coach totally expands the
areas and types of people we can coach to
be (of course) limitless!
In Coach For Life's training
for Life Coaches we use a spiritual coaching
model. We know that we can touch the heart
and soul of anyone, whether they consciously
know themselves as Spirit or not!
We know everyone as truly being
a Spiritual Being having a human experience.
Even for those who see themselves as just
a human or as human beings having an occasional
Spiritual experience, we can, and do, touch
their soul without ever having to use the
word "Spirit" or "God,"
etc.
As a Spiritual coach, our power
lies in our connection with Spirit. It's not
required that the client be conscious of any
Spiritual connection. As Spiritual coaches
we can "access" the Spirit we know
to be within everyone regardless of an individual's
belief or level of consciousness around being
Spiritual.
There is a transcendent magic,
(some call it a miracle), that occurs when
Spirit is accessed and brought into the numerous
decisions that make up the fabric of our lives.
(There are numerous methods of "accessing"
Spirit without having to be conscious of our
Spiritual nature. These are the skills that
are taught and experienced in all of Coach
For Life's Coach Training & Certification
Programs.) This "accessing" of Spirit
imbues the attributes of our true nature -
peace, joy, ease, and fulfillment - into every
moment of our lives.
- 5-day In-person Comprehensive
Coaching Course, followed by
- 7 week Build
A Practice TeleCourse.
The maximum number in any one group that can
currently register for this Program is 18. Participants
of this Program stay together as a group for
the first 8weeks. The first week is in-person
and the last 7 weeks are by phone. This assures

COURSE. You also get to experience
the powerful benefits of having a coach over
an extended period.
2. Methods
of Marketing -
The ICF surveyed successful coaches and
learned the number one method for enrolling
clients. Detailed training and practice
of that method is began during the first
week and expanded and integrated during
these weekly sessions. Numerous other methods
of attracting clients are shared as well
as additional "customized" types
of coaching are explored to further enrich
your personalized offering of coaching.
3. Receiving
Group Energy and Support
- It
is a great way to receive weekly individual
