Why Does Online Life Coaching Work?

Many coaches use the telephone for life coaching. Others have set up their websites for online coaching. This is a drastic change from counselling days when the coach and client meet face to face. This seems like distancing to some clients. They do not understand how coaching can work if they cannot see the coach. The simple fact is, online life coaching is catching on, because it works. There are some draw backs to online coaching or using the telephone: In person you can see non-verbal responses, eye movement, posture, balance, and reactions

Change Your Life: Ask the Right Questions

Have you ever wondered how some people can transition through life with ease? Have you ever heard the statement, ‘everything is so easy for them.’ Or statements that attribute success to luck? Of course you have. That is because we look at some people and wonder what their secret is, what do they know that we don’t. This is the foundation of the multibillion dollar self-help conference and book business. This problem is compounded when we go to these seminars and walk away feeling cheated. We didn’t get it. The speaker made the concept sound so easy, but we didn’t ‘get it.’

Dating Advice for Christians: Online Dating Tips

Many Christians are starting to visit online dating sites like RealChristia Singles.com and Christia Cafe.com. The controversy over whether Christians should date is a hotly debated one, and often leaves Christian singles frustrated and confused. I’ve spent a year on an online dating site researching, experimenting, and following the dating process between people and couples. The conclusion is that online dating is safer, it is a great way to find new friends as well as a companion, and it is a great way to learn more about you.

Is Love a Drug?

What makes people fall in love? We find someone we are in love with, but two years later we wonder what we ever saw in them. No one can say this hasn’t happened to them, whether it was a high school crush or our first romance. Unrequited love is harsh. IT leaves us feeling rejected. Our feelings are so strong that we don’t understand why ‘He doesn’t love me back’.

Recreate Your Belief System

What is a belief system? Most people do not understand what a belief system is. They understand that some are defined by religion, culture, peers, and education. Many people understand it as part of their ‘core’. Everyone and Everything has a belief system; People, Governments, Civil Groups, Men’s Groups, Women’s Groups, Civic Groups.

The Emotionally Healthy Woman

There are some serious misconceptions about what an emotionally healthy woman is. "Protect your creative life, If you would avoid habre del alma, the starved soul, name the problem for what it is-and fix it. Practice your work every day. Then, let no thought , no man, no woman, no mate, no friend, no religion, no job, and no crabbed voice force you into a famine. If necessary, show your incisors." Clarissa Pinkola Estes PHD

Sexual Freedom of the Christian Woman

When I bring this topic up with clients, or when I am speaking to a group, I am often met with shocked gasps, disbelief, confusion, curiosity, and even distain. Many women fear the thought of a becoming woman being passionate, open and sharing, and fully satisfying herself and her husband. There is a sense of ‘loss of identity’ whenever you mention the word intimacy.

How to Survive Dating Men

One of the most common questions asked by women is ‘What do Men Want.’ The most painful question is ‘Why?’ These two questions put together cause heartache and distrust in millions of women. It is easy to start seeing every man as a commitment-phobe, or someone with attachment issues, but this is just not true. There are a lot of good men out there. The trick is to learn how to recognize them. What Does A Man Want? Impact on Feelings

How to Date a Nice Guy

I constantly work with women who are tired of cycling through ‘bad boys’ or dysfunctional relationships. They want to find someone worth spending the rest of their lives with. The problem is that they may not be able to identify the ‘nice guys.’ Even if they can, there is baggage they cannot see but is ‘red flags’ for the ‘nice guys’. This last aspect of dating is the hardest to handle, because those red flags are exactly what attracts Mr. Wrong.

Dating Advice: Why Do Men Lie?

I asked a few men why they lie. There were varied answers. The surprising thing was that none of the men I asked denied that they lied. There were some typical answers. A common one was, 'If we tell the truth you won't believe us.'

5 Relationships Doomed From the Start

No one wants to be lonely. Few people want to be single. Most of us are looking for a relationship where we can grow as a couple, have fun, and support each other. This includes emotionally unavailable people, commonly called commitment phobes. These people express a compulsive avoidance of intimacy while constantly hunting for an intimate relationship. They are never clear about being unavailable and can touch the heart of a woman far easier than a ‘normal’ man.

Disadvantages of Online Dating

Dating online has many problems not faced when dating from your church or denomination. The most common is distance. I’ve heard many horror stories in the last year. One woman reported that she dated someone over the phone for a year. Then, when it was time to meet he disappeared and she never heard from him again.

Dating Games Men Play

This article is inspired by a dating forum where a lengthy conversation caught my attention. It amazed me how many people fear doing the wrong thing. The same questions continually pop up in the forums, and in coaching sessions. Can a woman ask a man out? What is the proper etiquette when it comes to letting a man know I am interested? How do I ask if s/he dates one person at a time, or several? What is the purpose of the first ‘coffee shop’ date? What do women expect from a Man? What to men expect from a woman? How do I know when we are exclusive? To flirt or not to flirt

Why do Men Breakup without An Explanation?

Women have all experienced at least one relationship that just broke up without an explanation. Sometimes the man just vanishes into thin air. Other times they just say ‘it is over’ and walk away without any apparent conce for her emotions. Women I’ve talked to have tried everything: *Only dating men who show interest in them first *Not acting desperate *Letting the man take the lead and being totally *Not pushing the guy or being totally open with their feelings *Not worrying about making the relationship serious *Living with them – not living with themr

Avoid Dangerous Dating Personalities

When coaching post divorce, one of the first things I do is introduce clients to the different types of people they will run into. It is vital to understand that some people have baggage. Also, some personality types just do not mesh. In the past people dated from work or social settings. There was a chance to get to know the people, or have friends make references. The worst case scenario was the blind date where the friend set you up with their boyfriend’s date.

Is it Time to Break Up Your Relationship?

I like to talk to people for a few sessions, and let them determine why they want to break up. In many cases there are good reasons for the break up. In others, the emotional reasons are superficial leaving regret and pain on both sides after the break up. Sometimes a little ‘house cleaning’ and ‘goal setting’ can help a relationship. In many cases, I’ve found that a bit of relationship advice, and some insight into the other person can turn a floundering relationship, or marriage, into a renewed and passionate one.

How to Keep Him - Relationship vs. Partnership

One of the biggest problems between men and women is their view of a relationship. Instead of looking at your connection as a relationship, try to view it as a partnership. This opens up a whole new dynamic. The average person goes into a relationship with a simple objective, to have someone else fulfill their wants and needs. There would be far more successful relationships if people viewed their connection as a partnership.

Advantages of Online Dating

The online community does offer some advantages. The most valuable lets people chat and get to know each other before meeting. This lets people ask some serious questions before any emotions or attraction sets in and clouds your judgement. It also lets you ‘block’ those people who are pursuing you, but you do not find them suitable.

How to Communicate with a Man

Every woman has been in a situation where her man became moody, withdrawn, and won’t tell you what is wrong. He completely closes down or goes into the ‘cave.’ How you respond to this can make the difference between whether he falls deeper in love with you or walks away without any explanation or closure.

Post Divorce Dating - for Beginners

It is very difficult making the transition from married to single. Post Divorce trauma can take years to overcome without the help of a coach or counsellor. Many people handle the emotions and rejection by withdrawing. Others step out into dating, often for the wrong reason. They are trying to fill a hole, to prove their worth, or to dull the pain of rejection. There is no right or wrong time to start dating after a divorce is finalized. However, once you are thrown back into the dating game, you’ll learn that the rules have changed immensely from when you were younger.

Surviving and Thriving after Betrayal and Relationship Breakup

One of the hardest things to handle in a relationship is betrayal. It doesn’t matter whether you were stood up by a date, or your marriage ended horribly. Betrayal hurts. I’ve heard so many women say ‘I can’t trust anymore.’ I don’t want to try again. The pain can be deep and self-esteem shattering. It can cause people to set up emotional barriers, and create walls that are difficult to pull down. These barriers have the power to affect every future relationship until we confront them and deal with the pain and issues.

Dating Help: Is He Married?

One of the most devastating betrayals for a woman is to find out that the man she is dating is a married man. The betrayal goes deeper than a break up. There is rarely, if ever, a chance to confront the man. The relationship will break up just as it is ready to move to the next step. In fact, in many situations the man will just disappear after a very romantic or meaningful event. • Not pushing to see you • Text only • Won’t accept calls - Gets upset if you leave a message on his phone • Pushes for sex • No interest in the little things in your life – doesn’t want detailsr

If Life Coaching is the Answer, What is The Question?

The questio I hear most often is, ‘Why does coaching work? I don’t get it. It is too simple.’ I hear this from clients, and people who are new to coaching. It seems that nothing happens except a bit of jou aling and brainstorming in many sessions. It doesn’t look like the coach invests a lot of effort, but the results are measurable, and there is ample evidence to support the successful approaches to coaching.
