Since I can remember, I’ve been obsessed with one thing: why people think, react, and connect so differently, and how easily conflict happens simply because we don’t understand each other.

I always thought I’d study psychology. But life had other plans.

One ordinary Sunday, a group of youth leaders visited our church. They invited me to join their movement, and without knowing it, that moment completely redirected my life. I stepped into youth work, not because it made sense on paper, but because something in me knew it mattered.

For years, I worked with young people while still trying to figure myself out.

Along the way, I completed a degree in Education and Biblical Studies and taught in high schools across the Eastern and Western Cape,experiences that deepened my understanding of people in ways textbooks never could.

But life wasn’t done shaping me.

I kept digging into the human psyche, exploring personality frameworks, watching how often people, especially young adults, lose themselves when they try to follow advice that doesn’t match who they truly are. And the more I learned, the more I realized what I was created to do.

When I eventually trained and certified as a Life Coach, it felt like everything finally clicked.

This was the work that fit my wiring, my passion, and my calling.

Today, I sit with young adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of who they are becoming. They’re standing at the bottom of their own mountain, careers, identity, purpose, and I get to walk with them as they begin their climb.

I guide them with insight, encouragement, and the hard-won wisdom of someone who has walked many mountain paths without a guide… and learned, through trial and grace, not just how to survive the journey, but how to thrive on it.

If you're in a season where life feels uncertain or direction feels blurry, you don’t have to climb that mountain alone.
