Here are some things to ask yourself while you’re looking for the right professional.
- What type of life coach are you looking for?- When do you want to start?- How much time can you devote to life coaching each week?- What is your budget?- How will you measure success?- Would you like to meet in-person and virtually?

- What is your background?- How long have you been a life coach? - Where can I find reviews or testimonials? -What is your philosophy?-How much do life coaching sessions cost? -What can I expect from your sessions? -What is your cancellation policy?
