3. What Life Coaching is NOT?
Its not COUNSELLING
or THERAPY
Healing past hurts,
resolving personal pain,
or
focussing on ‘fixing’
what is broken or hurting Its not
CONSULTING
One more

best to solve a
problem
Its not
TRAINING
Where an “Expert”
instructs &
teaches you.

4. What is Life Coaching?
COACHING
Is focussed on the present, looking forward.
It is aimed at functioning, emotionally/
mentally ‘well’ people who want to achieve
more from their life by working with a trained
accountability partner.
It is helping to identify the skills and
capabilities that are within the person, and
enabling them to use them to the best of their
ability, to fulfil their God-given potential and
live the life they were created to Live!

Eph 4:12-13
.... to prepare God's people
for works of service,
so that
the body of Christ may be built up
until we all reach unity in the faith ....
and become mature,
attaining to the whole measure
of the fullness of Christ.

6. “I am passionate about
Coaching
because I believe
people –
have incredible
God-given potential,
which they are not
actualising.”

they were on the right road

13. Laurie Thompson – Life CoachingLaurie Thompson – Life Coaching
Many people are feeling stuck,
without direction and just ploughing along ,
existing in a day-to-day, survival mode.

14. Yet God has specifically created and designed us –
He says He knows the plans He has for us.
- But many don’t know what those plans are!!
Statistics show that
less than 0.01% of people on this planet
have a clear Direction or Purpose in life
of which they are fully aware!
