The objective of this research is to define life coaching which we have frequently heard recently, what its functions are, what it promises, who and why applies to the life coaches and the basics of the social tendency toward the life coaching accordingly. We observe that how a new consultancy service represents itself and what it offers, is relatively important to create a domain itself within the society of alternatives today and expands its reach on a gradual basis. The ultimate aim of this research is to sociologically analyze the needs of today's society for the underlying reasons for this tendency, which can be observed via supply-demand relation. We will analyze how life coaches introduce life coaching to the society and ex-amine the online presentations of 10 life coaches in total through content analysis method, which is one of the qualitative research methods.
