How to Become a Relationship Coach
The Relationship Coach Certification Requirements
Coach-Client Overviews
Coaches are required to submit three coaching recordings to their Coach Mentor for feedback and review. You must earn a score of “meets standards” or higher on one of the overviews to complete the course. You can find an Overview Guide and a Coach Overview Rubric in the Coach Portal.
Course Attendance
Coaches must attend 14 of the 16 scheduled training sessions (which does not include the Orientation session). Guidelines for attendance are outlined in the course syllabus.
Coaching Log
Part of your training experience will include finding and working through at least 5 coaching sessions with at least one relationship-based pair. For purposes of your training, a practice client is defined as a person(s) with whom you provide coaching services for no payment. Your practice client may not be a family member or close friend.
Steps to pivot from Relationship Certification to Business Building
Best Practices to Build Your Practice
Saturate Yourself with Education
Read all the books, listen to all the audiobooks, read all the blogs, watch all the YouTube videos, listen to all the podcasts — whatever your preferred learning method, do it all the time! Find yourself in the world of relationships. Learn, write, and chat with friends and colleagues about what you’re learning.
Choose a Coaching Niche
The more specialized your practice, the more likely you are to attract the clients who are looking for you. Focus on the specific problem you have a passion for helping others solve. For example: I help career-minded individuals create strong romantic partnerships. I help recently divorced women re-frame relationships. I help professionals develop healthy boundaries with their boss and colleagues.
Create a Coaching Business Plan
Once you’ve determined your niche (and it’s ok for that niche to change as you grow and develop as a coach), put together a business plan to lay out your business strategy. How will you primarily reach your audience? What are your strengths? How will you get the word out? How will you engage your audience?
Coaching Practice. Practice. Practice!
Early on in your career, try to find as many practice clients as possible. This is an amazing and fun way to grow personally, get to know your potential paying clients, and network, network, network! Entering someone’s life as a coach is a sacred and beautiful thing, and the absolute best way to hone these skills is to create a regular practice.
