Life Coach Jobs: Overview
Hear the word “coach,” and you might remember the coach of your high school soccer team or favorite NFL franchise. But have you heard of a life coach? Life coach jobs are a bit like sports coaching.
As a life coach, you’ll help a client set a goal, make a plan, and follow a timeline for achievement, providing motivation and other resources along the way. These goals can relate to things like career, relationships, breaking a bad habit, losing weight, or any other area of your life you’d like to improve. You’ll set up regular client meetings to review progress. A life coach-client relationship can last for weeks or even years.
Some life coaches go by the title of executive coach or personal development coach. Most life coaches are entrepreneurs, but you can also find staff or contract life coaching jobs with a business that offers coaching to employees or in residential care or treatment facilities.
If working in social service jobs interests you, you can expand your search to related jobs such as:

Life coach jobs are currently not regulated, but some colleges offer courses related to the field. Several independent organizations offer classes that lead to certifications from their group.

ICF suggests these classes to become a life coach:
- Ethical Practice
