Pros and Cons of
Life Coaching Online
I offer two types of life coaching online:
* email
* instant message (IM)
Let me share with you some of the pros and cons of each of these.
Email Pros:
--can send at your convenience - 3AM or 3PM
--can receive near daily interaction with coach
--cheapest coaching option
Cons:
--may seem impersonal
--may take about a day for a response
--hard to have back and forth dialogue
Instant Message Pros:
--near instant responses for flowing dialogue
--opportunity for sessions wherever/whenever you have internet access
--corresponding through text may seem easier
Cons:
--may be distracted with trying to write "proper" sentences
--requires you to be in front of a computer screen
--may be hard to remain focused while waiting for reply
While telephone coaching is the most widely used method, online coaching can offer flexibility and convenience that may suit you better.
It may be more convenient to use IM during your work lunch hour.
If you really want a coach but are concerned about the cost, life coaching by email may be a good start for you right now.
Or maybe you want to give coaching a try but are a little reluctant to actually connect with someone voice to voice over the phone. In that case, both email and IM coaching provide a bit of distance in the coach/client relationship.
All of those situations are valid and important and I am happy to offer different ways to accommodate you.
Whether you choose life coaching by email, IM, or phone, I am dedicated to working hard for you!
