My Path to Becoming a Professional Life Coach in South Africa
And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.

I know what it’s like to feel like you’re doing everything you must, but nothing feels right.
A Crossroads (& a Confession)
It’s hard to admit, but I never believed in life coaching. My thinking was, “If you need to talk, go to a psychologist.”
Then my crossroads hit me. They grew tired of being ignored. On paper, my life was good. I had a successful career as a writer, but I felt completely stuck. Life was limbo. I knew I needed a change, but I had no idea which direction to take.
So, I took a plunge and booked a session with a coach. That decision changed everything. Coaching didn’t magically fix my life; it’s my life, after all. But it helped me choose a path. It gave me the skills to address challenges and, best of all, to fall in love with me and my life again.
My Philosophy
In short: I want to do good.
My entire coaching philosophy is built on helping people find the same clarity I did, to guide you toward your lighter, brighter, and whole life.
I’m not here because I have better answers than you. No, I’m here because you’re more capable than you realise.
My goal is to be your transformational coaching expert. I’ll ask the difficult questions, offer a different perspective, and provide the unwavering support you need to access your truth and find your way forward.
My Commitment
My goal with life coaching is to help you bridge the gap between where you currently are and where you want to be.
I’m here to help you find your power to set your goals, establish accountability for your success, progress in your life, and attain greater fulfilment.
We do this by helping you clarify your goals and identifying the obstacles in your way.
My Focus
I partner with millennials and men who find themselves at a crossroads. People who are ready for change but need support to make it happen.
Whether you’re in Johannesburg, seeking personal coaching in Gauteng, or connecting online from anywhere in the world, I’m here to help. I provide a confidential, non-judgmental space for you to explore your challenges, understand your emotional landscape, and build the future you want, on your own terms.
“It’s OK not to be OK.”
