How can you help clients maintain and grow after life coaching?

It is all about the client’s focus, where you put your focus the energy flows. To clarify your goals and create a realistic and actionable plan, first of all you have to be laser focused on your outcome. Then you need a right strategic plan to go towards your goals. You may also need to wrestle with your negative conditioning and acquire a positive mindset. This will need reshuffling of your belief system to stay with empowering unlimited beliefs. Bring more of love in your life and relationships, if you are not at peace with yourself, all goals seem elusive.

As a life coach, encourage your client to implement a structured review process for continuous goal assessment and adjustment. Establish a monthly review to track short-term progress, celebrate small wins, and make necessary tweaks. Conduct a more in-depth quarterly review to evaluate broader trends, address any obstacles, and realign strategies with evolving priorities. Finally, facilitate a comprehensive yearly review to reflect on overall achievements, set new long-term goals, and plan for the year ahead. This systematic approach ensures ongoing alignment with their aspirations and fosters sustained personal growth.

First of all you need your client to understand What a growth mindset is : A mindset based on a belief that your basic qualities, can be grown and learnt through constant and never ending improve in their life. Growth mindset people view the world differently. They are big believers that the more positive focus and positive action they put into something they will become better. If they aren't good at something they don't get discouraged they view it as a sign that they need to work harder and develop new skills and insights. They enjoy challenges and ses them as opportunities to learn and expand their knowledge. They view failure as a learning experience.

Implementing a growth mindset is an important aspect of coaching. This involves showcasing the benefits of a positive feedback loop that cycles through positive mindset, analysis, effort, analysis, feedback, analysis, wash, rinse, repeat. This, along with keeping an ongoing open door of communication with a client ensures consistent continual growth thereafter.

As a life coach, you can help a client develop a growth mindset by encouraging them to embrace challenges and view failures as learning opportunities. Use positive reinforcement to celebrate effort and progress, not just success. Introduce them to the concept of neuroplasticity, emphasizing that abilities and intelligence can be developed. Encourage self-reflection and journaling to track growth and learn from experiences. Provide resources, such as books or talks, on growth mindset principles. Foster resilience by setting achievable goals and gradually increasing their difficulty. By promoting curiosity, persistence, and a love for learning, you help clients cultivate a growth-oriented mindset.

Pienso que la Red de apoyo puede incluso potenciar la actividad del Coach, porque se apoya su profesión al aumentar los factores de decisión para que los ejecutivos escojan sus sesiones. El coaching ha trascendido más allá de una mera sesión. También se compone de valores agregados que puedan permitir a las personas ser mejores en su ser y en su hacer . En los grupos de apoyo que yo propicio se genera también Networking.

Definitely have a group who support your goals & your journey & share that support with others. Knowing others have your back & that you are helping them too is often the boost you need to stay on track. I also tell my clients that I am always available if they need a quick check in w/ text or email, one off session or come back for a package. It is part of their support network. Often just knowing you are there as a coach is enough to remind them of what you worked on together. I also let them know that coming back to coaching - me or anyone else - is still moving forward. They will continue to change & morph as they move toward their goals. I have had many clients send updates or return after a pause in coaching, we are always learning

A life coach can help a client include self-care by guiding them through a life audit. This process involves assessing various aspects of their life, such as work, relationships, health, and leisure, to identify imbalances and stressors. Encourage the client to rate their satisfaction in each area and discuss the findings to pinpoint where self-care is lacking. Together, develop a self-care plan that includes activities they enjoy and can realistically integrate into their routine. Set specific, achievable goals for self-care practices, and schedule regular check-ins to monitor progress and make adjustments. This holistic approach ensures self-care becomes a priority in their daily life.

Check in with client even after the program has ended. That's what I like doing. I was recipient of this practice. My mentor/coach followed up with me even post our engagement and was available for a discussion too. I have started doing the same for my clients, i.e. being available for them even after coaching has ended.

As a coach , being approachable is very important even after the coaching relationship ends. I follow this instead of checking on periodically. There is nothing wrong in periodic check-ins. Just ensure you set boundaries on what you discuss or offer during these chats. The advantage of being approachable ensures that clients automatically reach out when they are going through a difficult phase and renew the contract for addressing that. Build trust. When this is the basis of a coaching relationship, people reach out and update you on progress.
