FAQs

Working with a life coach could transform your life into what you have been longing for. It is one of the most important decisions you make. Taking the time to find out if Lori Beard is the right life coach for you is crucial.  Here are things to consider:

HOW DO I KNOW IF LIFE COACHING IS RIGHT FOR ME?

  • Are you looking for outside support and guidance; someone to bounce ideas off?
  • Could you use some help in dealing with stress, daily pressures, and being overwhelmed?
  • Are you ready to get strategic about the next steps and get into action where you may have been stuck or procrastinating?
  • Would you like to have the confidence to start or move forward in your own business or advance in your profession?
  • Can you imagine creating something totally new and infinitely better in your personal relationships?
  • Would you like a step-by-step method to decide what to do next?
  • Is it time to let go of some of the struggles and try something new?

If you’ve answered “yes” to 3 or more of these questions, you are an ideal candidate for coaching…. consider this your invitation. Without direction and action, the lives we most want, exist only in our imagination. Working one-on-one with a professional can make all the difference.

WHAT LIFE COACHING WITH LORI LOOKS LIKE:

1. WHO IS LORI’S IDEAL CLIENT?

Lori is looking for individuals that are willing to learn how to change their old ways to live their passion and purpose in life. The following qualifiers will affirm your compatibility with Lori.

Coachable

Teachable

Ready to take action

2. HOW LONG IS EACH SESSION AND WHAT DO WE COVER?

Coaching sessions are typically 60 minutes depending on the issue, and yes, this is determined beforehand.  

Together we schedule appointments to fit your specific needs. You can choose what you want to work on and lead the call or follow my suggestions and recommendations. “Intensives” and longer sessions are available for specific situations. Please feel free to ask information in the discovery session.  * E-mail and text support is available between sessions with all monthly packages.

3. WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COACHING AND THERAPY OR COUNSELING?

Coaching and therapy can be used separately or together. They both can help you to build a strong foundation for your life, but have a few fundamental differences. Therapy helps you to untangle your past and to heal emotional pains and bring closure to troubling events. Coaching looks at where you are at right now. It focuses on the present and assists you in moving forward to a more fulfilling and balanced future. Coaches are collaborators. Unlike therapists and counselors, they do not diagnose or treat mental disorders.

4. IS IT CONFIDENTIAL?

Yes. Of course. No one will know that we are working together unless you tell them. Details of our sessions are never discussed with anyone.

5. ARE PHONE & VIRTUAL SESSIONS AS EFFECTIVE AS THE IN PERSON SESSIONS?

Today, most coaches work with their clients virtually or over the phone. Coaching is about strategy, accountability, and acquiring new skills for personal and professional success. It is results-driven.

After working with hundreds of clients, the ones who work virtually move forward 5-6 times more quickly than people who opted to work one-on-one in person for weekly sessions. Having a bit of personal space during sessions can take away a lot of the pressure that we tend to feel in face-to-face meetings and allows us to get to the core issues much more quickly. It can also make sessions easier to commit to and stay consistent with – even during traveling or when faced with tight schedules. Lori has successfully worked virtually with clients across North America and Europe.

6. HOW DO I MAKE SURE LORI IS THE RIGHT LIFE COACH FOR ME?

The coaching relationship is based on trust – it’s crucial that you feel able to express yourself openly and safely with your coach. That is why a discovery call is strongly encouraged, because it is when the connection process occurs for you to decide if it is the right fit.

After doing your homework by looking at the information shared on this website, and having the discovery call with Lori consider the following:

Is Lori someone I am comfortable talking to?

Do I think she’ll be able to help me with my specific situation?

Am I ready to make the necessary changes for her to provide value to my life?

Do I believe my personal development is worth the financial investment and time required of me?

7. DOES HEALTH INSURANCE COVER LIFE COACHING OR CLINICAL HYPNOSIS?

Like marriage counseling and family therapy, health insurance doesn’t cover Life Coaching nor Clinical Hypnosis.

Health insurance only pays for things like “medically necessary treatments” of an illness, injury, or disorder.

8. WHEN CAN I EXPECT TO START SEEING RESULTS?

If you’re ready to take action today, it may happen sooner than you think.

The majority of Lori’s clients have experienced exponential results with her most popular program, the Four-Month Package. Significant breakthroughs have been reported after just the first session.
