Is creativity coaching the same as life coaching?
No, not really. People trained as life coaches, or emply many of the same skills as a creativity coach. Life coaches are not specifically trained or knowledgeable about working with artists, writers, and other creative professions as creativity coaches. I trained as a life coach with a specialization in creativity as this represents my exeprience as an individual who is an artist. As a result I am aware and can faciliate the issues that that creative work often brings up such as where to find ideas, how to decide what idea to work on, how to develop an idea, how to market creative work, how to find an artistic community, and so on. What’s I am able to provide that other creativity coaches cannot is the ability to go beyond solutions. Creativity and life are not two separate experiences. In order to whole the two need to be integrated for a rewarding life.
