"Life-coaches all the rage
Personal growth is hot... Life coaches focus on enhancing the lives of clients, often talking about balancing or "integrating" one's life, as Beck puts it.
They usually begin by asking extensive, specific questions and honing in on a precise set of goals. Homework may include writing in a journal, doing various exercises including building a "life blueprint," and reporting on progress with various "action" plans... These guides give clients the confidence to get unstuck — to change careers, repair relationships, or simply get their act together. "
