For those of you who are still confused between Coaching and Consulting work, here is a good post on The Coach Connection Blog.

For instance and as we have seen in this blog, Coaches:

Life Coaches are Equal Partners with their clients.
Life Coaches perform NO tasks on behalf of their clients.
Life coaching clients have virtually TOTAL control over the coaching process.

etc. There is a world of difference between the two and even though many people follow the dubious path to add “coach” to their title, coaching is mostly about letting the client find hers/his answers. It’s not advising or mentoring.
