Life Coaching Case Studies
Kevin's Transformation
​
​
​
Introduction
​
Kevin reached out to me during a challenging period in his life. At 24 years old, he had graduated from a prestigious university with a degree in computer science and was employed in a job that felt temporary and uninspiring. He wasn’t acquiring new skills or working on projects that excited him, and although he knew he needed a change, he was unsure of how to proceed. At one point, he even considered shifting to a completely different career field.
​
In his personal life, Kevin felt equally stuck. He struggled with maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine, felt dissatisfied with his weight, and yearned for meaningful relationships. Making friends seemed difficult, and finding a life partner felt unattainable. Kevin was lost, lacking both short-term and long-term goals, and felt like he was drifting through life without direction.
Kevin's Main Struggles
The primary obstacles Kevin faced were:
​
• Developing a plan for healthy eating, exercise, and socializing.
• Exploring alternative career paths and potential career pivots.
• Finding the motivation and creating a concrete action plan for necessary changes
