In order to become a life coach, one needs to have the desire to overcome his own weaknesses first. Being a coach means working with people, with their feelings, emotions, thoughts, ideas and considerations. Your main job is to motivate and inspire them. While some people are "inborn life coaches" and have this gift from the very beginning, there are plenty of others that simply have to learn everything from scratch.
Usually, they say a life coach should have a degree in psychology. However, taking a consideration that we are talking about "life coaching" and not a single domain training, you have to know a little bit of absolutely everything, starting with the art of oratory (speaking skills), hypnosis, self defense, anger management, motivational issues, weight loss, career change, family, etc.
Being a life coach means making people become better. Thus, you have to have a positive attitude yourself. You have to learn to make commitments and stick to them till you obtain the desired goals. If you can win yourself, achieving other targets during this life time frame is no big deal. This is what you are going to teach your "students", as a life coach.
Even if in some states across USA, a lot of people claim that you are going to need a license in order to work as a life coach, this is no big deal. You can always get one if you know your job.
Being a life coach doesn't mean only working as a life coach, it means inspiring people to achieve their goals, and never, never giving up.
Hope this helps, a little bit of philosophical approach towards life coaching :)
There is no particular course or degree available to become a life coach. Instead, you need to be able to counsel people on various life issues, including business, finances, health and more.
One can learn to become a life coach by going to a college or university whether online or in person and taking several courses in psychology to receive at least a bachelors degree.
If the coach is a high school or grade school coach, they have to have a teaching degree. Otherwise they generally have a physical education degree and coaching experience.
