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.

New 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
