Completely useless, it's like one long ad for their paid course. This is not a "Complete guide" as it only gives 1 tool for life coaching and the rest is about how to market yourself. Also if you look up life coaching tools on google you'll get the same resource they gave but with less talking.

By Lesley Kenny on 8/16/2023

Was honestly doubtful if not cynical before I watched this but was pleasantly surprised by the helpful and detailed introductory information. I knew from the description not to expect to be told exactly how to be a coach in 2 free hours, but that I would get a general overview which I have, and I've decided to pursue more of their courses - thank you both!

By Johanna Biedermann on 7/9/2022

It's the perfect introduction, giving great hints on what to look out for, not just half knowledge trying to lure you to buy. I could stop here and know what to still learn, where to continue my research to become a good coach. I'm not though, I've bought another course because I'm impressed by their knowledge, skill and way of teaching.

By Scott Nottmeier on 2/8/2022

This is a very good course. The speed, tempo and delivery are great. The course is concise, impactful and efficient, so it doesn't waste your time. The course is well worth it. Drip your foot into the water of understanding, before you dive in deep end headfirst. You gradually walk in slowly and comfortably, step by step into the deep end of the pool.

Although it is a sales pitch it's really informative about defining your business to get results with marketing. As someone who tried to launch a career as a Realtor and never succeeding because of not getting clients, I understand that the methodology presented here is the real deal. A lot of real estate agents don't get off the ground because they don't have a good paradigm for good marketing, and apparently it's true for coaches too. The paradigm presented here is essential for finding prospects and getting the message through: basically, clearly define your business, who your audience is, communicate (not you, but..) what results they can expect, and how they can get started. I will review this material often.

By Olga Tutska on 11/12/2020

Very well structured course providing all the needed detailed basic information about coaching that gives a good understanding of the practice for the further delving into the subject. Strongly recommend to everyone that are new to coaching and want to see what it's all about and how it works with tips from professionals. All in all, this course is great as an introduction to coaching.

By Maurice C. Sabio on 8/7/2020

As usual Joeel and Nathalie delivered their best in this course. Even if this was a free course, I have learned more about Life Coaching here than the previous paid course that I took from another provider. Surely, I am part of Transformation Academy's Tribe. Great job as always. Thanks for this free course.

By Catalin Mocanu on 2/5/2020

Although I found some interesting ideas here, it is far from being a "complete guide". But it's an opportunity to get an ideea about what life coaching could be and to get acquainted with the 2 teachers.

By Rita Rodrigues on 1/15/2020

It gives us the introductory basis for understanding if this is the path we want to follow. Resources are clear, objective and relevant. You'll feel free to explore and deepen the knowledge. Dá-nos a base introdutória para compreendermos se é este o caminho que queremos seguir. Os recursos são claros, objectivos e pertinentes. Fica a vontade de explorar e aprofundar mais os conhecimentos.

By Piret Betten on 8/17/2019

This is the 3rd class I'm taking from Transformation Academy. I did Happiness coach and Group Coaching before. This is really good! I'm going to take more classes in future. What I like the most. Courses stay on topic and don't have any meaningless unnecessary small talk ( Like some classes that are available). I recommend it!
