Are you someone who friends and family always come to with their problems? Then, according Jacqueline Hurst, you could make the perfect life coach.

‘If you’re somebody who enjoys helping people, it’s not a job at all,’ Hurst explains. ‘You just need to be empathetic, and have a lot of life experience under your belt.’

After becoming a life coach changed her life, Hurst decided to teach others the skills she’s honed, which is why she’s launched a new virtual life coach school: The Life Class.

Over the 8-week course, you will learn how to have confidence in your abilities, how to start a business and (importantly) how to get clients through the door.

But do you need to a picture-perfect life to advise others? ‘Not at all’, Hurst assures me. ‘Nobody has a perfect life. Everyone is just doing their best. You will start to sort your life out as you go through the course and, actually, overcoming those obstacles and developing an emotional intelligence will ultimately make you a better coach.'

So if you want to change your life, but you’re not sure where to start, this could be the class for you. What better way to give your life a fresh lick of paint in 2015?
