Middle Manager — SARB (26 Mar 2021)

Before coaching, I had a strained relationship with my direct report and thought the fix was to manage them better. I discovered the real work was learning to manage myself. I became aware of my emotions, triggers, and how to name and regulate them. Now I lead clearer conversations, defined my leadership vision, and show up better at work and at home.

Director — Government

Before coaching, my confidence was low and I felt guilty putting myself first. I discovered I matter and that self-respect improves how I show up as a mother and wife. I became aware of how harshly I spoke to myself. Now I look in the mirror and affirm my worth, set boundaries without guilt, and trust myself.

Senior Manager — Medtronic Africa (2023)

Before coaching, I struggled with imposter syndrome, high anxiety, and workaholism while our organisation navigated major change. I discovered practical ways to face fear and lead from my strengths. I became aware of patterns that kept me small. Now my anxiety is down by about 90 percent, I’ve stepped fully into my role, and team engagement is way up.

Manager — SARB

Before coaching, old hurts drove my behaviour and my inner critic ran the show. I discovered how my past shaped my present. I became aware of that limiting voice and learned to challenge it. Now I’ve articulated my leadership goals and purpose, and I meet life with more choice and self-forgiveness.

Manager — South African Reserve Bank

Before coaching, I was burning energy, disconnected from presence. I discovered how childhood patterns formed my personality. I became aware of how to be here, not hurried. Now I’m more vulnerable, patient, and present—and growing.

Corporate Client (2018)

Before coaching, stress blurred my relationships and work. I discovered how to prioritise what and who matters. I became aware of my follow-through. Now my relationships are stronger, I drive projects to completion, and I invest in the people who count.

Executive — SALGA

Before coaching, I doubted myself and felt scattered. I discovered an inner authority I can rely on. I became aware of the habits that undermine it. Now I feel empowered and anchored in my own leadership.

Coach

Before coaching, life had fallen apart and I couldn’t see my role in the chaos. I discovered how my thinking patterns and childhood experiences kept me stuck. I became aware of healthier ways to relate to myself and others. Now I prioritise my wellbeing and have changed how I relate to money, colleagues, and my child.

Director — WFP

Before coaching, I was navigating complex systems without a clear voice. I discovered the power of Enneagram-informed, heart-centred leadership. I became aware of how to use my voice for equity. Now I experience frequent “aha” moments and lead with greater authenticity.

Shuvai Nyoni — African Leadership Centre

Before coaching, work and home bled into each other. I discovered small structural changes shift everything. I became aware of what restores my focus. Now I work outdoors when I can, keep work/home spaces distinct, lean on peer groups, and hire the support I need.

Middle Manager — Professional Woman

Before coaching, I felt unclear about myself and my future. I discovered compassion through self-understanding. I became aware of my blind spots and strengths. Now my family relationships have improved and I’ve started a vision for a Center on African Public Spaces.

Executive Director, HIV/AIDS Global NPO

Before coaching, we tried to push performance without addressing root dynamics. I discovered that real results come from deeper individual and team work. I became aware of how to hold safe, stretching spaces. Now my team performs better and I recommend taking the jump. It’s worth it.

Chief Director — Government

Before coaching, I wasn’t sure growth would stick. I discovered what unwavering dedication looks like. I became aware that this work is a calling. Now I feel held to my growth with care and consistency.

Global Executive Trainee

Before coaching, I was hunting for techniques. I discovered a deeper kind of truth-telling. I became aware of what was hidden. Now I have insights that changed the trajectory of my work and life.

Sector Crisis Testimonial (Assessment)

Before coaching, I was in a sector-wide crisis and forgot my strengths. I discovered tools to stop, breathe, and separate the chaos from my worth. I became aware that self-care without guilt is a discipline. Now I’m calmer, clearer, and rate my progress a solid 7.
