WHAT IS A LIFE COACH?
Coaching is like a synthesis of a mentor to believe in you and help you set bigger goals for yourself... A manager to break down the goals into 'do-able bits'... A personal trainer that will keep you moving along your path and a sports coach to give you feedback to help improve your game.
A Coach works one-to-one over an extended period of time. This way the work is targeted and focused to the client's need, plus the coach is able to make sure you really develop new skills and habits.
Results Coaches work with clients within a proprietary 3 month coaching structure, for one hour per week in person or on the telephone.
Over this time the coach helps the client set goals, provides feedback, perspective, encouragement and new ways of tackling situations. It's like having someone "running alongside you" in life, giving you the extra input and insights that can really make a difference to your success.
Coaching is a natural part of life
Parents coach their children into happy, healthy adults. Friends coach each other to have more confidence in themselves. Married couples coach each other through the various hurdles of life.
Coaching is all about having someone believe in you and encourage you, about getting valuable feedback, about seeing things from new perspectives and setting your sights on new horizons.
Every successful athlete and performer today has a coach of some sort. A coach makes coaching available to anyone wanting to achieve their best, in any field. Coaching is not another 'how to' course. It is a powerful alliance between two people that produces exceptional results.
ABOUT KARINA BURGER
I grew up on a farm outside Graatwater on the Westcoast of South Africa. I matriculated 1989, at La Rochelle Girls High School in Paarl, then went on to complete my studies at Stellenbosch College in Public Relations.
With the urge to see and experience more of the world, I travelled abroad for 2 years. Once I had returned from my travels, I decided to get involved in the property industry. I joined a large corporate company and since have achieved 10 years of work experience as well as the experience to work with a wide variety of people.
With the love and desire to help people, I decided to become a life coach, so that I could help people reach their full potential.
