Ulrike Pretorius
Leadership & Career Coach
Thinking Partner – Narcissism Sensemaker
I’ve chosen to call this blog series, The UP Club. Yes, of naturally this refers to my initials U.P., but more importantly, it is inspired by my desire to support you on your ongoing journey forward and UP. For you to move UPward in body, mind, soul and spirit – in the entirety of our human experience.
The UP Club invites you to discover and think with me, to learn, to be encouraged; to make your life simpler and to strengthen our inner being.
I want to build bridges from you to yourself, self to others, parent to child, idea to action, problem to solution, stuckness to change, past to future.
It is important for me that the transformation you experience through coaching is deeply rooted in who you are and connected to your truest self.
I look forward to accompanying you on your journey UP, wherever that may be for YOU!
Watch the space!
Your coach and thinking partner,
Ulrike
