More on Life Coaching

Last week I wrote about  the proliferation of life coaches available today.

Today, on the Huffington Post, there’s a follow up to my question by life coach Christine Hassler.

Instead of constant self-scrutiny, we all need to accept that there are going to be times in our lives when we need teachers and cheerleaders – but that doesn’t mean something is wrong with us. Hiring a coach is an investment in your personal growth. Any good coach or tutor has been coached by someone else and is now just passing along the learnings. We’re all in this together! If we can approach self-improvement and coaching as something that brings out our strengths rather than looking at it as the remedy for fixing what is broken, then maybe we can finally feel good enough – exactly as we are.

Life in Los Angeles

You can find an original piece I wrote on Life in Los Angeles over at Brazen Careerist today.  Here’s a teaser:

Los Angeles is perfect if you’re trying to define or redefine yourself intellectually, bodily, or socially. It’s a great place to get lost and find yourself, as long as you don’t get caught up in the hype. . . and you don’t mind the traffic.
