Do You Need A Coaching Qualification? (The Honest Truth)

Do you need a coaching qualification to become a coach? It’s one of the most common questions aspiring coaches ask.

We’ll explore: Whether qualifications actually matter What makes a great coach Why some highly qualified coaches struggle Why some coaches with very little formal training thrive What I’d focus on if I were starting again today If you’re considering becoming a coach, building a coaching business, or developing your coaching skills, this video will help you think more clearly about where to invest your time, energy, and money.

For the past 20 years I’ve been exploring what it means to live well. My work sits at the intersection of coaching, business, personal development, wellbeing, psychology, relationships, performance, and purposeful living. I’ve built businesses, worked with founders, entrepreneurs, coaches, and leaders around the world, and spent countless hours studying what helps people create meaningful, successful, and fulfilling lives. Along the way, one thing has become increasingly clear: Most people don’t need more information. They need better conversations. Conversations that help them think more clearly, see themselves more honestly, move through what’s holding them back, and take meaningful action towards the life they want to create. That’s why I believe coaching matters. The world is facing enormous challenges. More people than ever feel overwhelmed, disconnected, uncertain, or stuck. Great coaches help people navigate those challenges. They help people reconnect with themselves, realise their potential, and move towards their goals with greater clarity and confidence. And that’s why I created this channel. My aim is simple: to help coaches become better coaches. Whether you’re just starting out, building a coaching business, or looking to deepen your craft, I hope these videos support you in helping more people create meaningful change in their lives.
