Morphology
The meaning 'assisting people with personal or professional goals' is directly built from 'life' (personal existence/way of living) + 'coaching' (guidance/training). This compositional pattern (coaching applied to life matters) is straightforward and cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents can readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Life coaching comes from the picture of a sports coach who trains and supports an athlete. So life coaching means having a guide who helps you find and reach your 'personal' or 'work' 'goals'.
