The reasons vary as much as people do. Some decide to enter coaching because:

During times of transitions such as empty nest, coaching helps clients find ways to get through the stressful times and regain a sense of control, purpose, and joy in their lives.

They feel stuck - Tired of a life that's just the same thing day in and day out and doesn't bring them pleasure, many turn to coaching to explore the alternatives and the steps they can take to make those alternatives a reality.

They feel overwhelmed - With the frantic pace of life, many clients work on discovering ways to better manage their commitments, including being able to find time for themselves to do things which bring them happiness.

They want to change - Dissatisfied with their job, relationships, or the gap which may exist between their values and their daily lives, many come into coaching to make lasting changes in how they approach life.

Since coaching holds that you are the expert on your own life, the issues you decide to address are based on your concerns, goals, and vision for your future.
