Welcome

Woman in Blume is a Cape Town-based coaching practice supporting women through life's transitions with greater wellbeing, confidence and purpose.

I'm a certified coach accredited through the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC) Global.

I believe that growth remains possible at every stage of life and that periods of change often create opportunities for reflection, renewal and new beginnings.

With over twenty years of experience in financial services, including senior roles in marketing, business development and sustainable investing, I bring both commercial experience and coaching expertise to my work. This enables me to support women navigating personal and professional transitions, as well as organisations seeking to invest in the wellbeing and development of their female employees.

My passion is supporting women to reconnect with who they are, navigate change with confidence and create meaningful, sustainable change in their lives and work.

If this resonates with you, I would love to connect.

My Journey

My journey into coaching evolved through years of personal development and coaching experiences. The catalyst came during the Covid-19 pandemic when coaching provided support, perspective and clarity during a period of uncertainty.

 

Like many people, I found myself reflecting on what mattered most and re-evaluating my purpose, goals and aspirations.

This experience inspired me to pursue coaching more intentionally.

 

This led me to undertake advanced studies through Stellenbosch Business School, where I completed an MPhil in Management Coaching.

 

My interest in women's health and wellbeing led me to complete a Diploma in Health Coaching through the Health Coaches Academy in the United Kingdom.

 

I later expanded my knowledge in menopause support through Newson Education, reflecting my commitment to supporting women through this important life transition.

 

While my formal qualifications span leadership coaching, health coaching and menopause support, my approach brings these disciplines together through a whole-person lens that recognises the interconnected nature of mind, body and soul, the essence of what makes us human.

My Coaching Philosophy

I believe women experience life through the interconnected dimensions of mind, body and soul.

 

Periods of transition can affect every aspect of life, including wellbeing, relationships, identity, purpose and work. My role is to create a supportive space for reflection, growth and meaningful change, helping women navigate these transitions with greater confidence and clarity.

 

Through whole-person coaching, wellbeing support and menopause-informed guidance, I support women in creating sustainable change that honours who they are and who they are becoming.
