I've decided it's time to resurrect my old blog. It's been a little over a year since I've posted. Our family was going through a rough time, and I needed to focus on making sure my kiddos and I (always make time for self-care!) were given all of the attention we needed.
I'm excited to announce that I have started classes to become a Parent Youth Family Life Coach. A life coach works with people who are struggling and need guidance moving forward in an aspect of their lives. Many life coaches work in areas such as wellness, career, and business. I was excited to stumble upon a school that offers specialty training to be a parent coach. I decided their program was right up my alley! There are only a few things I love more than helping parents better their relationships with their children.
I'm in my second week of an 8 week course. After that, I will do my specialty studies in the area of Parent Coaching. At that point I will be a CPYF (Certified Parent Youth Family) Life Coach. From there, I have chosen to become credentialed through the ICF, one of the two world-wide coach credentialing programs. In order to become credentialed, I will need to do quite a bit of coaching practice. I will need 25 pro bono (free) coaching hours, and 75 paid hours. I do not have to paid at the going rate of other Life Coaches; I am allowed to charge whatever I want, or accept a barter of services. (For example, if you're a massage therapist and need coaching, we can trade services and have that count.)
I will keep you updated on my progress in a tab at the top called "Coaching by Heidi". I look forward to hearing from you and continuing to share my experiences with you in the blog!
