Life coaches are not the same as therapists or psychologists, who are trained and licensed medical professionals, although there can be overlap in their approaches and techniques for helping clients. A typical life coach will:

• Counsel a client through a significant life challenge
• Encourage a client to overcome a career obstacle
• Guide others to reach personal, professional or educational goals
• Help someone live an overall ‘better’ and more fulfilled life
• Assist in identifying strengths and weaknesses in an individual

A life coach cannot prescribe drugs or medication or claim to be a medical professional.

• Marketing your business

• Knowledge of any regulatory requirements

Soft skills include:
