Coaching is an incredible tool that can move us from an ambivalent, indecisive or unclear place, into one of clarity, motivation and drive. Focusing on the present and future, coaching helps to uncover your dreams and then maps out a path for you to get there. Working as a coach since 2018, I've witnessed clients finding inner strength, tenacity, creativity and grit to not only define their dreams, but to go out there and get them too. I enjoy working with people who are eager to work through their stumbling blocks and motivated to do the work it takes to evolve. In my coaching sessions I draw on my professional training which includes trauma resolution (Somatic Experiencing) my 8-years of owning an online business, as well as on yoga philosophy, mindfulness and psychological principles. I am also an active member of the ICF (International Coaching Federation) I absolutely love to travel, spend time outside and indulge in dark chocolate. I'm currently living in Cape Town, South Africa although I also spend a lot of time in Europe. Coaching sessions are done via Skype or Zoom. How can I add value to YOUR life?

I am a life coach specializing in coaching those who desire the balance between achieving goals while experiencing peace and contentment. I can also assist if you have had a spiritual awakening or are navigating major life transitions (divorce, terminal illness, loss or midlife crisis) These experiences provide a rich environment for radical personal transformation and the attainment of peace, and it can feel overwhelming to navigate them on your own without guidance. We are here for the human experience, and we can tap into profound peace and wisdom and live in peace. My coaching seeks to reconnect you with the experience of being a human being using your full potential and mastering yourself. In terms of my authority in life coaching, life experience came before the life coaching qualifications. I experienced a significant spiritual awakening and faced many obstacles after that as my perspective shifted radically. I emerged whole after divorce, bankruptcy, and a "dark night of the soul'. At the end of it all, I realized that I wanted to work with people going through something similar and pursued NLP and hypnotherapy qualifications which supplemented my nursing qualification in mental health and provided me with a framework to support my clients in their journeys. I use mindfulness, mindset strategy, reflection, contemplation, meditation, affirmations, mantras and various other methods in my coaching sessions and will only use what works for you and what you are comfortable with. In working with me, I can guide you to feel grounded again, rediscovering your purpose, formulating and working towards goals that are aligned with the person you are after your transformation, and rebuilding perspective to move forward with as you navigate your life. I look forward to connecting with you.

"Where have you hidden the camera?" Is what I get asked - a lot! Who you really are is good news, because you have a unique sets of gifts and talents that allow you see, sense or do certain things naturally. And this is where your greatest potential for being very valuable lies. But quite often, it doesn't feel like it's good news. I use accurate science to show you the true intrinsic value of your natural ability, and how to make the most of it. And I am really good at doing this. Do you want to work with someone who it feels they almost know you better than you know yourself? My work with both individuals and leaders centres around the fact that every person has their own unique and powerful set of gifts that generate their work style. And I help people know, love and apply their own style optimally for the best personal and collective results. This means they will: - Understand the unique VALUE their style offers; - Begin to appreciate where this style will generate value and impact; - Know and manage the factors that impact their CONFIDENCE most; - Appreciate their BLIND SPOTS and gain tips on how to manage these better; - Know their specific STRESSORS and be equipped with personalized short cuts to re-energize and re-focus; - Know who they need to PARTNER with for success; and - Have an inspiring PLAN for their next steps. Your talent is both a gift and a responsibility. Optimising that gift requires awareness, appreciation and compassionate and confidential accountability. And it can be a lonely and confusing journey - that's why I am here.
