Carol Knox

Hi, it’s Carol Knox and I want to tell you why I am passionate about coaching work. I am a life coach who specialises in helping folks discover their unique life purpose and meaning in life especially in difficult or challenging times. Because I have been through many major changes in my own life, divorce, single motherhood, full-time work and study, loss of loved ones, aging and illness, I made a decision to move to the Cape four years ago. My focus is to bring my life experience in finding my own WHY and purpose to help you to find yours including what I have learned in my PHD research.

Author of Transform Difficulties Into Triumphs in 30 Days. A Story-Based Workbook, I offer a 30 day or 30 week programme, a twelve week programme or customised coaching depending on your needs.

Do you want to live a life filled with meaning?

“…this striving to find a meaning in one’s life is the primary motivational force in man.” Viktor Frankl.

When we encounter challenges in life, often we discover somehow, that we can’t find a centre, a way to cope. What is it all about? Studies measuring meaning and purpose in life have found that meaning in life lessens uncontrollable stress and substance abuse, depression, anxiety and self-derogation among others. This meaning or deepest human value, this WHY, points us to reach beyond ourselves, to enrich our lives, to unfold a deep fulfilment in our work and personal lives.

I will guide you to unfold and discover your meaning, as well as a personal calling, based on the thinking of Viktor Frankl, through tasks that you can fulfil or things that you can do, now and in the future, relationships that you can strengthen and enrich, through loving connections, and attitudes that you can develop and cultivate when you can’t change things. You are also given mindfulness skills to help you regulate your emotions and be present in the moment in all that life presents to you.
