Personal Development
My Story
I have the privilege of being involved in a professional services venture in an industry I'm deeply passionate about—Personal Development, Coaching, Mentoring, and Counselling. Both my wife and I hail from South Africa, and we have three children working in Cape Town. We own a house in Mozambique and are currently in the UK finalizing our 5-year Ancestral Visa for British Citizenship. Born in Rhodesia and educated in South Africa, I've gained international experience through work across Africa, the EU, and the UK. This personal development business grants us the freedom to live where we choose, travel extensively, and explore new horizons. To date, I've visited 65 countries around the globe. At one point over seven years, I averaged flying 25,000 km per month. One memorable adventure was a seven-day first-class round-the-world trip from Cape Town to Atlanta, Miami, Hawaii, Manila, Hong Kong, Macau; ending in Portugal where I lived for five delightful years in Cascais near Lisbon. Europe captivates me—especially Portuguese cuisine and cheeses! Throughout my 30-year professional journey mostly with multinational retail and industrial giants—in roles like CFO/FD and CEO/MD—I decided to pivot towards starting my own online professional services business including personal development, coaching, mentoring and counselling.
