Ever feel like you're on a good path but could use a little help reaching your full potential? Or maybe you're facing challenges that feel overwhelming. This guide can help you decide between life coaching and counselling.

Life Coaching:
• Focus on the Future: Life coaches act as your cheerleader and brainstorming buddy, helping you set and achieve goals you're excited about. They focus on the present and what you can do to move forward.
• Action-Oriented: Life coaching is a collaborative process. You'll work together to develop strategies and overcome obstacles to reach your goals, whether it's improving your career, relationships, or overall well-being.
• Shorter Term: Life coaching is typically shorter-term than therapy, often lasting a few months to a year. It's ideal for those who are generally functioning well but want to take things to the next level.

Counselling:
• Addressing Deeper Issues: Counselors or therapists are trained mental health professionals who can help you understand and overcome challenges stemming from past experiences, negative emotions, or mental health conditions.
• Longer-Term Support: Therapy can be a longer-term commitment, depending on your needs. It delves deeper into your past to identify root causes of current issues and develop coping mechanisms.
• Wider Range of Concerns: Counselors can address a wider range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, and addiction.

The bottom line:
• Life coaching is ideal if you're looking for a supportive partner to help you achieve specific goals and navigate life transitions.
• Counselling is the better choice if you're struggling with deeper emotional issues or mental health concerns.

Say goodbye to tyre waste

Tyrewise

About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.

About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.

The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.

Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
