“All that the human experience is about is the journey towards wholeness."

Welcome to my website—and my world! I’m so glad you’re here. My greatest passion (and joy!) is helping people step into their power and become active participants in their own lives, instead of just watching from the sidelines or feeling like a leaf tossed helplessly around in the river of life.

I love guiding people to reconnect with their inner power and their unique Soul voice, helping them grow into the best versions of themselves.

The truth is, we all have the power to create a life we love. When we understand how life really works, and we start flowing with it instead of struggling against it, amazing things begin to happen. It’s about tuning into your Soul voice and aligning with the energy that’s already within you. That’s when the magic unfolds.

Life can feel overwhelming and disempowering, especially in recent years when the challenges seem to keep piling up. But here’s the thing: life was never meant to be a constant struggle. My mission is to help people reconnect with their inner power and joy through workshops, courses, retreats, readings, personal guidance, and more. Whether it’s through writing, speaking, or one-on-one work, I’m here to support you.

We’re not meant to spend our days chasing some future version of happiness or stuck in the “if only’s” and “what if’s.” Life is meant to be lived now. Fully, deeply, and from the heart. The first steps are simple: start becoming more aware of your thoughts and the choices you make, and begin to truly listen to your own Soul voice.

You’ve got this, and I’m here to cheer you on every step of the way! Let’s create something beautiful together.

Curious about how to live a full, happy, and empowered life? Wondering why you show up the way you do—and why life seems to respond the way it does? Or maybe you’re ready to discover and connect with your own unique Soul voice?

Take a moment, stay awhile, and explore! If you’re unsure whether we’re the right fit or have questions about how I work and what I can offer, let’s chat! You can book a free 30-minute Discovery Call, and we’ll dive in together. I’d love to hear from you and help you find the answers you’re looking for. 😊

“We cannot become what we want to be by remaining what we are”  Max DePree

I think of Earth as a school and we are here trying to navigate its curriculum – without any books! They say that in school you learn and then write tests. In life, you are tested and then you learn. Sometimes those tests are endlessly repeated until you learn the lesson!!

There’s nothing more fulfilling than growing as individuals and honing our skills in the journey to live our best lives and reconnect with our inner power. As a master teacher and soul healer, I’m deeply passionate about helping people discover simple, practical tools to weave into their daily routines, empowering them to live with purpose and confidence. I believe there’s no “one size fits all” approach—together, we’ll explore what works best for you, right where you are. Let’s embrace this beautiful process of transformation, one step at a time!

What I can help you achieve?

I am devoted to helping individuals reconnect with the Power Within (which is the foundation of all my work) through workshops, personalised retreats, Reiki energy healing, sacred soul readings, soul guidance sessions and programs.

Workshops

The Power Within Workshop is a unique, one-day workshop that was developed to help individuals access their inner tools and strengths. It encourages participants to shape their own lives by awakening their inner power. The teachings of this workshop are so profound that they’ve been hailed across the country after one such workshop was featured on SABC2’s Hosanna program.

Retreats

The personalised, individual and small-group retreats I facilitate allow participants to listen to the voice of their soul in a tranquil, non-judgemental, peaceful environment. There are several types of retreat packages available, namely half day, full day and stayover retreats as well as virtual retreats. I use several beautiful venues around the Lowveld and various options that offer the opportunity to take time out from your busy life, cut out the external noise and focus on the most important person – YOU!

I will tailor-make a retreat to suit your individual needs.

Soul Sessions

Working with people is one of my greatest joys, and my Soul guidance sessions and readings help people to see opportunities instead of obstacles and get clarity on the next step of their journey. Sessions are either one-on-one or via Zoom or What’s App call.

My career as a growth and personal development facilitator, soul healer and teacher has allowed me to interact with people from all sectors of life as a guest speaker for the following organisations:

SABC Women’s Day event

Honey Jewellery event

SPIRAL PATH RETREATS

Why a Retreat?

Sometimes we just need to take a step away from the fast pace of life so we can catch our breath. Think. Reflect. Introspect. I create a sacred and safe space for you to do just that. Maybe you just need some space in order to take stock of your life, take a look at your own needs and wants. Or you need a sounding board or guidance to get clarity on where you are and where you may be headed. Perhaps a healing energy session, creating a vision board, journalling or just enjoying the peace and beauty of nature while I hold the space is what is required.

What They’re Saying

I looked for clarity and I found it amongst many other things. There were many ,many epiphany moments. I found the workshop truly blissful in a loving space. I could safely and supportively explore my fears and let go of them. The discussion with others is extremely therapeutic

Connectedness

Some years ago there was a TV series called “Touch” starring Kiefer Sutherland as the father of an autistic child, Jake. Although it appeared to be a bit of an odd story at first, as the episodes unfolded, it was about the connectedness of all things. Jake saw the world, past, present and future, as numbers. He was obsessed with…

Journey of Illness: Part 2

Over recent weeks I have heard about several people facing life-threatening and terminal illnesses with the most horrific physical symptoms and pain. Pain so bad that not even heavy doses of morphine have done much to alleviate it. It's heart-breaking to see another human being suffer so as well as witness the emotional strain on their loved ones. I began…

Journey of Loss: The Spaciousness of Grief

Spaciousness. The word popped into my mind as I was headed down the N4 towards Old Joe’s Kaia where Marian Cottle and I were going to be facilitating our Journey of Loss Retreat over the weekend. It’s a beautiful drive through the mountains, farmlands and orchards, just 45 minutes from Mbombela where I live. Where we create and hold space…
Wisdom |  Clarity |  Support

I have these two gorgeous purple velvet chairs in my lounge that a friend found on sale when I was moving into my new home after my husband died. Purple being my favourite colour (in case you hadn’t noticed) I just had to have them!

They became quite the talking point and most often friends and clients end up curling up on one of these cosy chairs and just talking.

When we’re feeling stuck, lost, or unsure of the next step on our journey, what we often need most is a safe, judgment-free space to process it all. A place where we can brainstorm, think, share openly, and work through challenges, without someone throwing advice at us or passing judgment.

That’s where my Purple Chair Soul Sessions come in! These 60-90 minute sessions are all about holding space for you. Whether you need clarity on your next steps, want to work through a challenge, or even brainstorm business ideas, these sessions are designed to help you reconnect with your inner wisdom—your true Soul voice. Together, we’ll tap into that incredible power within you so you can make the best choices to move forward.

And the best part? These sessions can be face-to-face or virtual—whatever works best for you. I promise I’ll sit in the purple chair for the online session 😊

So, let’s grab a seat (or a screen!) and get started. 💜
