5.0 out of 5 stars A breath of fresh air, 15 Nov 2006
Not flaky, not fluffy. But really practical and inspiring, I gave this to a work colleague just before Christmas, who had been really unhappy and gone through a difficult time. When she came back after the holiday, she came up to me and thanked me for the gift, it had helped her to re-evaluate what she wanted and needed out of her life and had helped her to make the decision to work fewer hours and do something for herself.

And one of the messages of this book is that you have the power. You don't have to make huge decisions to make lasting changes in your life. You will come away from reading this fired up with enthusiasm and with a clearer understanding of how to acheive what you want, and perhaps with a clearer understanding of what you want too ;-)

5.0 out of 5 stars A very clear,practical, gem of a book , 4 Jul 2007
By Marie Taylor (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Jeni Mumford has managed to produce a readable, concise text for those either contemplating life coaching or those new to coaching. Equally relevant to both coach and client, the book is accessible and easy to navigate.It provides a practical set of tools for the reader on the journey towards creating the life s/he wants. In short- it does what it says on the tin,enabling the reader to move towards "greater balance,enjoyment and meaning".- A great practical, concise toolkit explained in everyday language for a wide audience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Want to live life on your own terms. Then this is the book for you, 7 Jun 2008
By Martin M (Middlesbrough) - See all my reviews
This book leaves no stone unturned in presenting you with the many facets of life coaching, helping you to make a daily positive impact on both your own life and the lives of those around you. The book is easy to navigate so that you can read it cover to cover or just dip in and out of a particular subject. I have no hesitation in recommending this book as the most informative and balanced book on life coaching and personal development that I have read, and believe me I have read a few.

The book breaks down everything you need to know about life coaching and its benefits in easy to navigate sections and directs you to the key theories which guide the life coaching process. The author keeps you fully engaged throughout with exercises, case studies and suggestions on how to move your life forward from where you are currently to you would like to be.

Having read the book you will want to help others in your circle. If you find yourself totally engaged and taking to the process like a duck to water then it even has a helpful section on how to pursue a life coaching profession of your own. Now how many other experts in a field tell you that you too can do this. That's the ultimate sign of the author wanting to make a difference.

Ultimately this book is effective because as in the coaching process itself you set the agenda, you're in charge and the more you put into it the more you will get out.
