| COACH
OF THE MONTH - Pooja Bhagat |
 |
 |
Hello there! I am Pooja Bhagat. Along my
journey, I've played many roles: of a daughter,
a wife, a mother, an engineer, a copywriter
and it wasn't until I started on this path
of self-discovery that I am beginning to
find out Who I am. The journey continues
and along the way I found Coaching which
truly accelerated my learning curve. |
I've written The Art of Manifesting since which
forms the basis of my coaching style. I love to
work with people looking to explore deeper meaning
of life. I also use EFT in my practice which is
a very simple and effective tool in getting rid
of Limiting Beliefs, Fears and Phobias. Curious
about EFT, The Art of Manifesting, Coaching or
related workshops ? You can reach me at pooja@poojabhagat.com or 9560 2960 or visit www.poojabhagat.com . See ya then. |

Hong Kong Book Release: In Pursuit of Joy: Life
Lessons From Exhilaration -- A perfect gift to motivate
yourself and your clients! |
 |
By Dr. Patricia Bowmer, Life Coach,
Personal Trainer and Author
See www.patriciabowmer.com for more information about this Hong-Kong
based book!
Posters advertising Dr. Patricia Bowmer's
new book which will be out in September
pose the question: What if the answers were
somewhere completely unexpected?
She believes they are. |

|
As she states in the introduction to In Pursuit
of Joy: Life Lessons From Exhilaration:
"This is not a book about changing body
shape. It is not a book just for exercisers or
sports enthusiasts. This is a book for every man
and every woman who yearns for color, for strength,
for that intangible sense of soul we get from
doing what we love, from overcoming our limits,
from breaking down barriers. If you have ever
quested to become more than you are, or if you
simply yearn to recognize how wonderful you already
are in this very moment, this book is for you."

| Career
Coaching: Jumping on Sheets of Ice |
 |
By Charlie Lang
It was some 30 years ago, near a little village
in Northern Germany, that the winter was cold
and the water of a small lake was entirely frozen.
That was the time when the kids of the village
played their favorite winter game "Jumping
on Sheets of Ice". They would break the ice
with axes into pieces of approx. 50 by 50 cm size
and then push one sheet below one another. At
the end, only half of the lake was covered with
floating ice sheets.

| Message
from the President |

I can't wait to reconnect with
many of you at our autumn events. In our September
PD meeting we'll learn from Talis about charisma
and how to create it. Afterall, isn't charisma
one of our greatest coaching tools?
Our Coach the Coach Day is the
first event I've heard of just for coaches to
coach each other. If you're curious about what
other coaches are really doing, this will be
a rare chance to sample and learn. We'll work
on ourselves while learning and sharing with
other coaches. Plus, a room full of coaches
is bound to be warm and fun. If you plan to
come, please sign up soon as half the places
are already reserved.
Do you like the look of our upcoming
events? Are we missing something important to
you as a coach? I'd love to hear your comments
and ideas, even just a brief note.
Cheers,
President of HKCC
