Hey Everybody! Today, I’ve got a real gem for you – an audio interview with the life coach Tim Brownson!
Tim writes the fantastic blog The Discomfort Zone. I really recommend you check it out, if only to see Tim’s writing style. (The first time I saw it, my thoughts were “Hey, this guy’s writing style is similar to mine! Except he’s 10 times better!”)
I could go on to give you a full bio. You know, Tim is a great guy, blah blah, he poops unicorns and farts rainbows and in his spare time he cures cancer. But his blog speaks for itself, so just go visit that 
…
In the interview, I asked Tim about what a life coach does, because that was a huge mystery to me. I mean, think about it. A train coach is full of bored people, a football coach shouts at people, and a living room couch (which is obviously just a mis-spelled coach) is made for being sat on by people. So based on that… a life coach has bored people sit on top of him while he shouts at them?
Listen to the interview to find out exactly what a life coach does. It turns out to be quite different from my deduction. (Tim also shares a couple of great tips for improving your life).

Thanks Vlad for this great interview with Tim Brownson, who so succinctly explains what life coaching is and what it can and can’t do. I’m a regular reader of his blog the Discomfort Zone and, like you, really enjoy his writing style. As a life coach myself, I completely concur with his description of life coaching, and I especially like his particular approach and focus on helping people to be more thought orientated – not just goal orientated. I’ve shared the interview on Twitter – def one of the best descriptions of life coaching I’ve come across.
All the best
