The Life Coaching Handbook

I pre-ordered this book and couldn't wait for it to be delivered! It did not disappoint! I was totally impressed with her Beautiful Faces book and even more blown away by this one! The way she breaks things down and simplifies them makes it so easy to understand. Jane is an inspiring and caring teacher who makes you believe in your ability to draw and encourages you to do it. Her drawings alone are inspiring and she also has tutorials to go along with her books so you can watch her draw and paint her sketches. Seriously, the images alone are worth the price of these books.

I am loving this book! Well written and easy to read.l and understand. I don’t have to read stuff over and over again to figure what’s being said which makes learning the topic more enjoyable. This book is helping me be more excited about being an effective life coach!

This is the first book on life coaching I read that described how to work with clients by applying Spiral Dynamics. I was inspired and motivated. Thank you, Curly.

The book is a bit out of date but you can still use it in your tool box as a life coach as a start kit.

Had to buy this to go with a training. It was an easy read. Lots of practical advice. There was a lot of reliance on some techniques that are not supported by research, so I took it all with a grain of salt. Good advice on the business aspects of setting up a practice.

I've read a few coaching books but none so detailed and organized as this one. The author has created a program that moves chapter to chapter, from beginning techniques to more advanced techniques. If followed in order, the potential coach with learn from start to finish how to begin a coaching session, what to say, how to organize the session correctly, how to communicate effectively with the client and motivate them to improve their lives. It also contains information on how to start your own coaching business. There are many valuable techniques to choose from as well. I was more than impressed with this book!

This is one of the finest instructional books I have ever delved into. Ms. Martin has a simple, yet powerful way of sharing her ideas and experiences. Many times I have read similar works that speak only to theories rather than the nuts and bolts of how to begin the actual work. She also displays a strength and shall I say, a backbone within her tone of instruction. I would heartily recommend this book to anyone that works with others in a counseling or coaching mode.

Love and learned a lot. Must buy
