FEELING STUCK IN YOUR CAREER?

Many professionals struggle with self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and the pressure to excel.

It’s easy to feel overwhelmed and unsure of the next step in your leadership journey.

Despite achieving milestones, you might feel persistent discontent, wondering if this is all there is. Balancing multiple roles can lead to burnout, with the fear of failure becoming paralyzing.

MEET THE FOUNDER

 Alicia S Pieterse | BA S.W. MA.Th.

Celebrating 20 Years of Coaching!

I’m grateful to mark 20 years as a Leadership and Personal Growth Coach! Over the past two decades, I’ve supported incredible individuals on their growth journeys, helping them awaken to their Dignity, Aliveness, Possibilities, and Purpose.

This milestone celebrates the transformative connections, breakthroughs, and courageous steps taken by those I’ve worked with. Looking ahead, I’m excited to continue empowering individuals and teams to grow, thrive, and lead with impact.

I’m trained in multiple integrative methodologies including:

  • Executive Coaching (ACMC) through the International Society of Neuro-Semantics

  • Deep Coaching (Certified Practitioner with the Deep Coaching Institute – USA)

  • Narrative Enneagram Teacher (accredited through the Enneagram Worldwide Narrative Tradition. USA)

  • Mind-Body Coaching (with the Embody Lab. USA )

  • Process Work & Deep Democracy, studied under Dr. Stephen Schuitevoerder (2005–2011). I use this methodology to facilitate diversity and resolve team conflict.

“The seminar provided me with a guide – a road map that I can apply in order to live life fully; To attain success and fulfilment and joy in all aspects of my life – such as work, love, family and fatherhood… This was a true executive seminar – through “the NGT way” – Thank you to the NGT team as I am on my way to becoming the executive of my life!”

Sipho – Strategy Development Manager

“At the seminar, I truly connected with myself, the real me; and I learnt to accept and love myself, for the first time, ever, in all of my 50 years.” 

Beryl, Manager

“Today, I am happier than I have ever been before. I am empowered, stronger, yet much calmer, a better Mother to my kids and a better person. I love me. I am the captain of my own ship and ready for anything, no matter how rough the seas might be. And all I had to do was to have the will and the courage to turn the page to write the real true chapter of a brand new life.” 

Linda, Executive

“The Nurturing-Growth Coaches are outstanding professionals, and they coach with great insight, compassion, and expertise and they supported me in my leadership journey. This experience has been invaluable in my growth as a compassionate, aware, and purposeful leader.” 

CEO. International HIV/AIDS Organisation

“I totally loved the coaching sessions. I appreciated unpacking my childhood story, understanding how that formed my personality, learning to be present and not use too much energy. Above all. I cried, laughed, learnt and grew to become a much vulnerable, patient and present me.”

Client

“I can go on and on about other things I have learnt through this journey, you know all the ways in which I have grown.. And it was ALL because of your dedication and unwavering commitment to see me grow. And for that, I will always be internally grateful. Yours is a calling, not just a career, and you carry it with an amazing spirit and love.”

Chief Director in Govt

“The coaching I received from NGT was life-changing. I gained new tools to guide me in living my best life.” 

Chuma, Manager at JSE

“They (@NGT) coach with the Enneagram, and that approach forces you to be honest with yourself and about who you are. It’s the kind of labour that can make you feel uncomfortable at first, as you find things you do not expect or are not ready to see. But nevertheless, it has helped me to strengthen my relationships with my work team, and my family, particularly my kids and my husband. Because of that, it made me a better person and a more compassionate leader.” 

Ayanda R. Senior Manager. Local Government.

“I am now more self-aware and have learnt practical steps about how to work with my blindspots. My coach was a great sounding board and cheerleader. I now have the tools, skills and resources to manage my inner critic, which is true freedom! The gift of mindfulness taught me how to work with my breathe. It taught me how to be kinder to myself and these days I feel calm and confident. Thank you so much for this experience. I will not trade it for anything in the world.”

Manager at USAID

“When I first met Alicia, I didn’t believe her when she said that in a year’s time I’ll be a different person and I’ll feel great about myself. I didn’t believe it because after all, I am who I am with all my insecurities; burdens; self-doubt and lack of confidence. The coaching process itself, the time with Alicia is a journey – a beautiful and empowering journey where over time the pieces fall into place. It’s a year later and I feel like some-one has waved a magic wand over me, sprinkling some magic dust. I’m empowered; I’ve resolved many issues and have found my inner authority.”
