Yolanda worked in the Marketing Communications industry for 21 years, during which time she also co-owned an agency for 12 years, before pursuing her work as an Alternative Wellness Therapist and Ontological Coach.
In both her marketing and wellness vocations, Yolanda has done work with renowned companies in the private sector, as well as work with the public sector. Her ability to engage with stakeholders from an entry level administrator through to Board and Executive level is a well-honed skill which stands her in good stead as an Ontological Coach.
Having embarked on her own personal growth and development journey since 2014, during which she attended and completed various personal growth workshops, Yolanda also formally trained in the areas she is passionate about. She graduated with distinction as an Ontological Coach. She is also a certified Massage Therapist and a certified Chakradance™ Facilitator (energy balancing).
“What I value most about the work I do now as a Coach, is the powerful transformations I get to witness with clients over a series of coaching sessions. I find this work deeply rewarding, because as a coach my role is to prompt, prod and propose, while the client ultimately does the reflection, introspection and adjustment of themselves based on this process. It is a beautifully-intimate journey for both client and coach. And the best part is that once a client masters the challenge they’re facing, the learning remains with them forever. They become self-sufficient.
I love to remind my clients that “Coaching is not a crutch. It’s a catalyst for change.”
Yolanda is a consulting coach contracted in an Executive Leadership Coaching Programme with The SOAR Institute. She is also a Supervisor Coach to students studying Ontological Coaching, and privately coaches her own clients as well.
She is available for Coaching Sessions on both weekdays and weekends, as well as Online sessions.
