An Interview with Heather Beebe, Life Coach – TY07

Heather Beebe is a Life Coach in Upstate New York. She spoke with me about her business, her mission to help her clients overcome life’s challenges, and how she has become successful in doing so. Her website can be found at https://www.unstoppableyoucoach.com.

When we are going through some difficult times in our lives, what does it take to learn new ways of thinking; to arrive at a behavior or way of being that is so different from past behaviors that it leads to needed changes in our lives. One of the hot words in psychotherapy is insight. Insight has been studied for decades and they find that when someone arrives at an insightful solution to a problem they experience significant change in their perspective of the problem. But what does it take to arrive at insight? Is it something that we arrive at independently? Does someone need to instill in us the knowledge that leads to insight?

Research Supports Life Coaching

I read an article recently titled, From AHA to Ta-Dah: Insights during Life Coaching and the Link to Behavior Change. The article reviewed studies that find that Life Coaching can help us overcome difficult life challenges through changes in our behavior. It revealed that coaching can lead to positive changes in our sense of well-being and ability to cope. The article also suggests that life coaching can help us maintain better attitudes and a better ability to regulate our emotions.

But there remains some uncertainty about HOW coaching can lead to behavior change. One idea is coaching can help us become more mindful of our behaviors by becoming less robotic and more aware of how we are acting. Another idea is that coaching leads to behavior change through the development of insight. These are loaded ideas because even in the psychotherapy world there is debate about whether insight is necessary to create positive change. No less, there is a quite a bit of evidence that Life Coaching can help create meaningful change in our lives. Heather is a dynamic, well-spoken, and powerful presence and I could have spoken with her for hours. Here is my interview with Heather Beebe.
