6-1 Be your own life coach! The demand for life coaches has grown in recent years， with many celebrities claiming that their lives have been improved by a few sessions of coaching. So， what does a life coach do， and can they change your life for the better? Life coaches claim to be able to help their clients work towards achieving their goals. Sue Berry， a life coach， says， “As a qualified life coach， I have several different clients now. Basically， I help people to feel better about their life， work and relationships. Many clients come to me feeling very unhappy. By asking them questions and listening carefully to their answers， I help them move forwards and achieve goals that they could never have dreamed of achieving themselves.” Life coaching is a multi-million-dollar industry， with many life coaches charging hundreds of dollars for a session. Is it worth it? Not everyone thinks so. Melvyn Clark， a careers advisor at Leicester University， thinks that people should take responsibility for their own destiny. He says， “People spend lots of money on getting advice from professionals. In fact， there’s a belief that the more you spend， the less you actually have to do by yourself. Well， I believe that if you want to make real changes in your life， it has to come down to you. Spending hundreds to talk to someone else about your problems will only empty your bank account.” What do you think? Would you pay someone to help you get some direction in your life? 51.
