How to Find a Good Coach
Transformation Coaching: Creative, Life, Business
Finding the right coach isn’t about ticking boxes, it’s about sparking real change. You need someone who challenges your thinking, holds you accountable, and has a track record of turning goals into results. This guide shows you exactly what to look for and asks the hard questions so you land a coach who moves your life forward.
Introduction to Transformation Coaching
1. Know What You Need
What keeps you up at night? Lack of clarity? Stalled creativity? Weak leadership? Stress? Nail down your top three pain points first; without that, you’re shooting in the dark.
Define Your Goals
Want better work–life balance? Say it.
Need to hit revenue or AUM targets? Call it out.
Craving creative breakthroughs? Own it.
2. Vet Their Street Cred
Not all coaches are created equal. Experience matters, but so do results.
Check Credentials and Specialties
Newer coaches are eager to help you. Give them a chance only if they have systems and learning resources already in place to help your journey.
ICF or EMCC certification? Nice. But real proof is in the case studies.
Industry alignment? Search on Google for creative coaches for artists, executive coaches for leaders, or personal life coaches to meet your needs.
3. Test the Chemistry
You’ll be vulnerable. You need trust.
Book a Discovery Call
Ask direct questions: “What’s your process?” “Show me a before-and-after.”
Notice their style: blunt coach or gentle guide? Pick what drives you.
Feel the Fit
Do you laugh? Do you squirm? Both can be good signs.
If it feels like a sales pitch, run.
4. Understand the Investment
Coaching isn’t cheap, treat it like an investment.
Budget vs. Value
$50/hour newbies exist, but seasoned exec coaches run $300–$500.
Ask for packages or group coaching to maximize your budget.
Logistics Matter
Weekly calls or monthly sprints? Pick what fits your calendar and attention span.
5. Commit and Measure
A coach can guide you, but you have to do the work.
Set Clear Milestones
“I’m looking to reduce stress and boost mental clarity to finish my latest project in 3 months.”
Track Progress
Use simple dashboards or checklists.
Revisit goals every 4–6 weeks and adjust.
FAQs about How to Find a Good Coach
What’s the difference between coaching and therapy?
Coaching is future-focused, goal-driven, and doesn’t treat mental health disorders; therapy delves into past trauma and diagnoses.
How long before I see results?
Some feel shifts after one session; most see solid gains in 3–6 months, depending on goal complexity.
Do coaches need to be certified?
Certs show training, but client outcomes and chemistry matter more.
Can I switch coaches if it’s not working?
Absolutely. It’s your journey—change guides as needed.
How much should I budget?
Expect $100–$800 per hour. Opt for packages or group coaching to protect your investment.
