Welcome

Hello, and welcome to my site. My name is Kristen Carter and I’m a life and career coach. I’m based in Johannesburg, South Africa, but thanks to this website I can also coach anywhere in the world that has an internet connection. Very cool.

My focus as a coach is to help people tune in to what they love and to get more of it, at work and in their personal lives. I do this using a combination of coaching tools (many developed by Martha Beck, with whom I’m certified), good listening, intuition and personal experience.

Sometimes coaching leads clients to change big things like jobs or relationships, and sometimes they just tweak things a bit, adding more of what they love and eliminating some of what they don’t. It all depends on the client, and each one is unique. Either way, the end result is that they get to know themselves better, determine their own priorities, set their own goals, and make the changes that are right for them.

The purpose of this site

For the self-helpers out there, I will provide tools, resources, information and links to help you help yourself. You can even submit a question if you’d like to ask something specific - just click on “Ask the Coach” over there on the right.

For anyone looking for a coach, you’ll get enough information to know whether I have the approach you’re looking for. If so, email me (click on the Contact tab above) and we can set up a free 20-minute phone or skype call to get the ball rolling.

“I think we’re all born with a set of preferred activities and talents, but more than that, with an inexplicable inner knowledge of the things we are meant to do and be, the changes we are meant to make in the world.”
