Frequently asked questions about the life coaching programs, including why we are your best choice, where it all happens and how long it takes.
Absolutely! We will never use your personal information or anything you say without getting your permission first. At the end of the program, you will be asked to write your feedback and you can choose whether you want this information to stay confidential or not.
Yes. A life coaching agreement is a good way to help our clients feel that they will get a quality service, but also to get commitment from them, which is essential. The agreement sets out the terms and conditions for a successful delivery of the life coaching service and for achieving results. MBS Mentor Agency uses a simple but comprehensive agreement as a good foundation for your life coaching adventure.
Counselling is a past-focused discipline, in which the counsellor identifies the reasons for the person’s feelings and behaviors. Some clients come to us after experiencing counselling when they get tired of having reasons and excuses and want to move forward. In life coaching, we do not dwell on the reasons, because we want to avoid this negative outcome. Instead, we focus on the future, because no matter what has happened in the past, any person can make it better and learn to achieve, grow and be happy.
Life coaching is more than teaching. It gives you the knowledge of what you need to do, the tools that help you do it and the support and guidance you need along the way until you gain control over your mind, body and soul. Your life coach will stay with you as long as you want and help you implement those new skills.
Our life coaching program is holistic and long-term focused. We work with you to build your emotional intelligence and then teach you how to sustain and even enhance the positive changes in yourself and your environment. In a sense, you become your own life coach. This combination ensures your change and growth long after the life coaching is over.
No. In many life coaching programs, you will be asked to commit to life coaching sessions and pay for them in advance. Commitment to an unknown journey defeats the purpose of our life coaching program, because it takes away control rather than giving it all to you. We want you to come to our life coaching sessions because you see the value. In our life coaching agreement, you commit only to doing your best for yourself and paying for the sessions that you receive. You may stop at any stage.
We recommend that you complete the first 4 sessions, by which time you will be well on your way to gain control over your life. On average, our clients have 10 sessions over the course of a year, but you can choose what works best for you. Our goal is to make sure your program is short so you do not create a dependency. The more you use therapists, the more inadequate you may feel, which is the opposite of what life coaching is all about (empowerment). The more quickly you reach your goal, the more successful we see ourselves and you have full control over the number of sessions you want to use.
Life coaching sessions take about 60 minutes. If we are in the middle of something important, we will take the time to complete the session, even if that extends the time.
Most of our coaching clients want to meet once a week. We believe this is a healthy process and around session 4, we encourage our clients to take control over their growth and development and determine their desired gap in between sessions. The coach will be in email or phone contact with the clients to assess if the gap is healthy or too long. If things happen in between and you need to see your coach earlier, you will be able to contact your coach and re-schedule your session to better fit your needs. In between sessions, your life coach will provide ongoing support outside the sessions and encourage you to spend as much time as you feel comfortable exploring and integrating your new skills.
We only offer phone, video or email sessions at this current time.
We did not invent all this information. It has been around for many years, spoken and written by the biggest philosophers of all times. There is no magic ingredient. We just know how to combine everything and present it in an easy and effective way and we are happy to share the recipe with everyone. If you intend to come with your partner, please make sure each of you fill in a separate form. Please check your contact details as this will be your first communication opportunity with your coach. Once your coach receives the forms, you will be contacted within 3 business days by phone or email to schedule your first life coaching session.
Payment is expected per session, without the need to commit. You pay as you go.
