Through centuries there have been coaches in the forms of spiritual leaders, gurus and just people who were deemed wiser than the rest. The concept is not new and it is observed through history in different ways. It has become exceptionally popular though over the least 10 years, as awareness around mental health, self realisation and actualisation has sky rocketed. People are more and more eager to understand themselves, their patterns, their conditioning and live to their potential.

Coaching is not therapy though and the terms should not be interchanged. Therapists are medically licensed professionals, who have medical and post graduate training.
