About Me
After a 10 year career in finance and living in the UK, I got the devastating news, or so I thought, that my visa had been rejected and I had a week to pack up my life and move back to South Africa. I can so clearly recall the “how could this be happening to me” scenario that played out.
Today 7 years after the fact, I know that the universe was looking after me and that these sequences of events were in fact the biggest blessings in disguise, bringing about the most significant transformation and development in my life.
I had always known I was a spiritual soul, who wanted to help people and make a difference through my work – but I didn’t know how. My 10 year ‘experience’ in London was my attempt to do some deep soul searching and work out what my purpose in this world was. Surely there was more to life then hating your job and merely existing to pay bills. I kept my soul’s passion alive with the desire to study astrology, numerology, kaballah (ancient Jewish wisdom). Mentors and peers in my groups all made me aware of my passion of making a difference in this world, helping people and having the empathy and the encouragement to guide them into transformation and living their dreams.
I never fathomed that all the knowledge I gained from different spiritual sources had prepared me and developed my gifts for the new career path I was to take. My true path. Realising my purpose.
With a better understanding of the secrets to life, it is no surprise that my shift came with another difficult experience. A couple of weeks after arriving back home, my father had a near fatal heart attack and his odds of his survival were slim. Needless to say, all of me was dedicated to making sure my father came home to us (even though I had no control over that!) The endless hours sitting by his bed allowed me to give myself exactly what I needed. Time to pause and think. Suddenly the realization dawned on me. My dad’s mortality showed me how short life is and how important it is to follow ones dreams and not be left with regrets. It was then that I realised that I needed to start my life and career all over in South Africa. I decided I was going to create a new fresh start for myself here. New country, fresh new leaf and a career that serves my purpose and makes me happy….. And so what have I got to lose?!
So many events in life blindside us, there is no way of preparing for them, and as humans we adjust to “starting again”. However, it is rare that we grant ourselves permission to do so by choice. It was with this realisation that I decided to follow my heart and pursue my purpose in healing. My Mission, to make a difference to our world, one person at a time. How? A healthy mind equals a healthy body; empowering people with the tools necessary to keep a healthy mind and raise consciousness to a state of living in the present.
I am a life coach working towards my diploma in Consciousness Coaching. With the various tools I have gained from of NLP and Consciousness Coaching, I coach my clients into a new way thinking and unpacking their thoughts to a new state of awareness and decision making that sets them on the journey towards self-growth, discovery, transformation and ultimately making their dreams happen.
Together with my coaching I offer a range of healing modalities, that help heal the mind and body to let go of attached traumas that we hold onto throughout our lives.
I am a Certified Body Talk & BARS Practitioner, and Independant Usui Reiki Practitioner & Reiki Master. These modalities are extremely powerful on their own and even more compelling when combined. My passion to pass on this wisdom has inspired me to create a curriculum of self-development courses and I am currently finalising “the secrets” to inner peace that is now my everyday life.
I live each day with a grateful heart for all the blessings and abundance that is my reality. I have a wonderful practice; with beautiful clients whose courage and commitment inspire me each day to be able to live my purpose and in turn support them in their journey of realizing their potential. How did I get to be so lucky?!!
This is me in a nutshell. You can read through my website for more information on the modalities, treatments and courses I offer. Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in booking a session or would like to find out more information.
I look forward to meeting you soon and embarking on a beautiful journey of transformation with you.
Lots of love and light
