Welcome and Quick Poll Have you attended one of my webinars before?

Yes or No. How you ever have worked with a life coach or

business coach?Yes or No.

Have you taken the Emotional Index Quiz at LifeCoach.com and have your top 4 Needs?

Why use a Coach?

Coaching is for those who have a gap between where they are now and where they want to be. The bigger the gap, the more you will benefit from having a coach.

Most people hire a coach to be more successful in their careers, to change careers, to start their own business or to attract the right relationship. People in transition – starting a new job, business, retiring. People who want a lot more out of life. Who want to reach their full potential.

What is Coaching? Distinct from consulting, which is information-based and

relies on knowledge, expertise, and experience in a particular field or area.

Distinct from therapy which is generally for handling unresolved issues from the past.

Most similar to sports coaching in that it is an encouraging, supportive, inspiring and challenging relationship.

Why Emotional IQ is Important?

Effortlessly attracting the people and opportunities you want.

Knowing what you need and getting your emotional needs taken care of is stage two in our personal growth and development.

Our needs are requirements for us to be our best and without them, we cannot be our best.

Confidence is a function of fulfilled needs.

We repel people unconsciously if we have unmet needs. The repellent nature of neediness.

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs

Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs:

1. Physical, survival needs (food, shelter...)

2. Emotional needs (love, community, connection, appreciation...)

3. Values and Peak Experiences
