Become a Coach (And a mom)

Becoming a Life Coach While Being a Mom: The Truth

You might think, “Become a coach while I’m also a mother? No way!” Motherhood is a marathon, not a sprint. The days can be long and you will often wonder what you’re doing and if you’re making the right decisions. You’ve got to be attuned, empathetic, a good listener, and willing to sit with uncertainty to be a good mother. But it turns out? Those are some of the same skills that make you an amazing coach.

Coaching Skills Translate Into Parenting Skills

Actually, it turns out that there are some pretty amazing ways that moms who are coaches balance between their professional work and their parenting. (Furthermore, as I share in this Craft of Coaching episode, being a coach while being a mom has...helped me to be a better mom.) If you've ever thought that you'd love to be a coach, but don't see how you'd ever do it while also being a parent, today's episode is especially for you.
