Are you stressed, tired, or need a boost in confidence?

Are you frustrated about your life?  Do you even feel "stuck" in life sometimes?  Well according to CNN, life coaches can help you get "unstuck".  Personally, I haven't even herd of life coaches until I recently was informed about them.  I must say that at first I thought their profession just sounded like an over-paid motivational speaker.  Then after reading about them I realized that it really was much more.  They can help you get your life back on track if you happen to encounter any problems, and help you reduce the amount of stress in your life among many other things.  Having a life coach doesn't mean that they will make all the decisions for your life, but just be a helpful companion you will talk with about once a week.   Has anyone ever used or is using a life coach? Would you say that this really is an effective way of reducing stress in your life and/or getting your life back in order?
