- [Why Work With One Of Wellington’s Top Life Coaches?](https://vickyevans.com/why-work-with-one-of-wellingtons-top-life-coaches): AMONGST WELLINGTON'S TOP LIFE COACHES 2022! Super stoked to announce that I was recently listed amongst the top fifteen Life coaches in Wellington for 2022! Life coaching wasn't always my profession.  I spent twenty years working in the Corporate World before I had my children. Redesigning my life in my mid-forties was the best decision I could have made!  WHY DID I BECOME A LIFE COACH?
So why did I choose to train as an Advanced Life Coach? Simple, I loved the Professional Development and Career Coaching I did as a Senior Manager. But it's more than that, I thrive on helping people to live as their most courageous and authentic selves. Whilst managing the life/work juggle as seamlessly and successfully as they can. The biggest change for me, looking back is that now I know that I contribute so much more to helping people everyday. Making that meaningful contribution during daily sessions, and contributing to charities I love every time I welcome a new client, is super rewarding. And doing this whilst caring for my kids - and being present, kind to myself and living a happy, healthy life? Priceless! HOW TO CHOOSE A LIFE COACH There are a lot of great coaches out there. Check out the list in the article below for a good overview. Meeting the person you think might be a good fit for you is essential. Most experienced coaches offer a free discovery/strategy session or video call. The better ones will send you questions before you do the call so that they have some background on you before you chat. This is something I offer every time, and it helps me work with clients who are a great fit for me and my style of coaching. If you're curious, book your free session here: www.vickyevans.com/online-booking (it's free and no obligation). WHY WORK WITH ME?
Rather than me self-promoting, here's a link to my Google Reviews, let's hear what my clients say about working with me; Vicky Evans - Life Coach, Personal And Professional Development, Speaker, Facilitator  WHAT PROBLEMS DOES A TOP LIFE COACH SOLVE?
The most common problems I solve are helping my clients to increase their confidence, self esteem, learning to be kinder to themselves and to have their own backs. And to show up as their best selves in situations they find challenging. Helping clients to find clarity and direction and create lives they love.  To change careers, to move cities, countries, to have closer, more connected relationships with themselves and others. And most of all to slow down and appreciate all they have! Learning the art of living in appreciation - and flow - not rush - is also life-changing! LIFE COACHING SERVICES AND INVESTING IN YOURSELF Offering a range of services, from single sessions to year long VIP training programmes, there's many approaches that may suit your needs and available time. You get to choose what suits your time and budget. I also facilitate sessions and workshops for teams and organizations across Wellington, New Zealand and Internationally. As a single parent myself, I want to make the life coaching services I offer accessible to everyone. So I offer payment options, so that you can schedule sessions, pay for them, how and when it suits you.

I lived for a good part of a decade in the longing and discontent world, thinking that was it and I’d never steer back into less troubled waters. The good news is that these two emotional states are our growth signals! Think about the spectrum of emotions we can drift or fly into each day. The negative spectrum includes frustration, disappointment, resentment, anger, sadness, emptiness….the list is a long one. If you consistently experience negative emotions relating to a key area in life such as: your work (or lack of it), your relationships, time or money freedom or health you may like to read on!

So let’s paint a picture which may resonate with some of you. You live with your partner, you may or may not have children but you live in a rhythm which for some is a comfortable habit and that’s great, for others it’s become a habitual sense of inertia or even an endurance test.
