What is the Wheel of Life?

The Wheel of Life is a classic coaching tool that helps people see how balanced (or imbalanced) their life is at a glance. Your leads rate their satisfaction in 8 life areas, and the results reveal their strengths, focus areas, and a personalized balance profile.

Why it works: The visual nature of the wheel makes imbalances immediately obvious. It's a powerful conversation starter and creates natural demand for coaching.

Perfect for:

  • Life coaches

  • Executive coaches

  • Wellness coaches

  • Career coaches

  • Personal development coaches

  • Therapists and counselors
