5 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD CONSIDER BECOMING A COACH

January 15, 20234 min read

Introduction:

The pandemic removed a lot of distractions. Being forced to stay at home and not be able to go out and do the things we used to do, made people face the things that were hiding under the distractions of everyday life.

More and more people are reaching out to coaches to help them be happier or change careers, be more confident, or build more meaningful relationships. They need help facing all the obstacles on the way to their goals.

With that said, here are 5 reasons why you should consider becoming a coach! 👊

This is definitely the best time to start your coaching business as more and more people look for individuals who can help them.

Careers in coaching are personally, professionally and financially rewarding. You get to help people at your own time and your own fees.

Find out down below the five reasons why you should consider becoming a coach.

1. You can start with nothing

Coaching doesn’t require you to have any type of degree, a special background or a huge initial investment.

You don’t have to be of a particular age or live in a particular location. You don’t even have to leave your house if you don’t want to. You can work from home or anywhere you feel comfortable.

Look at your work and life experiences, what did you learn? You can share your both positive and negative experiences with others who might be going through what you already went to. Help people with what you already know and are good at.

You can start now as you are and with what you already have and as you grow, keep investing in your coaching skills as your skills improve so will be the quality of clients you will get.

2. You don’t have to take risks

Most career changes involve risk; you’ll have to leave your current workplace in order to start your new career. In some cases, you have to move for work. Not so for coaching.

You really don’t have to take any risk here. You can keep your work while you build your coaching business.

You can build your business one client at a time, this means you can work on weekends, in the evenings after work or any time it fits better your schedule.

You can keep coaching as a side hustle until you sure you can pay all your bills with it. You need at least five clients for your business to start thriving. It allows you to take your time to figure things out as you don’t have to leave your job.

3. Flexibility

Freedom that’s what we all desire. Being able to just leave, move to another country or just work from the comfort of your home, being around your family and not having to go through traffic and be in the office all day, it is all possible thanks to being a coach.

Basically, you are your own boss, and you can decide when and where and for how long you want to work. You are free to manage your time in the way you feel most comfortable with.

Nowadays you can coach people exclusively online, as long as you can provide quality service to your client they don’t care where you are. Coaching clients often prefer online meetings, or they are just too busy to have in-person meetings so it’s a win situation from both sides.

4. Self-development

On your way to learning how to help others, you will also learn how to help yourself.

You will be able to rediscover yourself and get a deeper understanding of who you are.

As a coach, you’ll always be on the search for new ways to help your clients and what helped them can help you as well. You will be able to apply everything you learn to yourself and your life.

Your clients will teach you indirectly through their experiences and pains. You can learn a lot about yourself through others.

In the end, it will improve your overall well-being as you’ll have a strong purpose in life, you’ll get to socialize more and have lots of diversity in your life.

5. Lifelong learning

For us to reach our fullest potential, we must continually learn and improve. Coaching sets you up in a lifelong learning environment. You will learn marketing, communication, branding, psychology, social media and so much more.

If you are curious and love learning new things every day this is a perfect fit for you.

Conclusion

Coaching has some amazing career perks! Any one of these is enough to transform your life. When you combine these in one career, it’s truly incredible.

"From the moment we met, I knew Aisling was one of a kind. I have never met anyone as passionate, genuine, dedicated, energetic and resourceful as Ash. Ash helped me through an incredibly stressful period in my career, which ultimately led to the achievement of a massive milestone for a long-term project that started out as just an idea 12 months prior. I say this without hesitation - she helped me to believe in the idea, and in myself, and provided the support I needed to get this beast of a project off the ground. "

She is a passionate and motivated person who is always looking for the best outcomes for her clients and ensures that the experiences she creates for them are of the highest standard.
