I've decided that my goal in life is to become a life coach. I have an undergrad degree in psychology, and have been giving advice for as long as I can remember- to my younger siblings, my friends, my parents!, etc. I really do give great advice and I care! I don't know how to become a life coach without extensive further schooling, which I cannot afford. Does anyone know of a life coach who is looking for an assistant, paid intern, or protoge?

Hi Brand New,
Salsa and Jonnie both gave you good advice; I'd like to chime in.
First you've got to decide whether you truly want to be a life coach, or whether you actually want to be a therapist or psychologist of some sort. The two professions are different. In fact, a life coach would be great at helping you sort out the question. If you want to talk more about this, contact me via Answers. Good luck!

Live first, and you will learn in time.
And, start coaching now ... with love ... you'll make mistakes ... perfectly normal, just don't get the idea that you are superior and you know better. Then you are not a life coach but an encroachment in life.
Jonnie
PS Do help others ... I like that.

A life coach doesn't give advice-they guide the person to their own inner knowing
