You can find me at any event a party, a meeting, or just walking down the street and I’m still a life coach.
That's who I am.

My friends know this: if I see you on a path that leads to self-destruction, I'm going to step in. I'll be direct, I'll be honest, and yes, it might be harsh, but it will never come from a place of judgment. My mission is to reason with you, to lift you up. I do this because I believe in the potential of every person I know, especially when the deck is stacked against us.

The Black Boy Child is an endangered species, and my only goal is to see us thrive, not fall. I will never celebrate a setback I'm only here to help you rise.

Mental Health Matters in Our Townships

Today, on World Mental Health Day, we want to shine a light on the critical issue of mental health in our townships.

The legacy of apartheid and systemic inequality has left deep scars on the mental well-being of many township residents. Poverty, violence, and trauma are just a few of the challenges that can take a toll on one's mental health.

At Beyond Counselling and Coaching Institution, we understand the importance of addressing mental health in our communities. Our organization was founded on the principles of providing support, guidance, and empowerment to those who need it most.

We believe that mental health is just as important as physical health, and that everyone deserves access to quality care and support. That's why we're committed to providing affordable and accessible mental health services to our communities.

Let's break the stigma surrounding mental health and work together to create a supportive and inclusive environment for all. Remember, mental health matters, and it's time we start prioritizing it.

Join us in our mission to promote mental health awareness and support in our townships. Together, we can make a difference!

The Unseen Struggle: Township Life and Mental Health

Living in townships and ghettos comes with its own set of challenges, from economic hardships to social injustices. But what's often overlooked is the toll it takes on our mental health. The harsh realities of poverty, violence, and systemic inequality can create a perfect storm of stress, anxiety, and trauma.

The problem is, many of us aren't even aware of the impact our environment has on our mental state. We normalize the stress, the fear, and the uncertainty, thinking it's just "part of life" in the township. But what if we could recognize the township as a contributing factor to our stress? What if we could acknowledge that our surroundings are, in fact, affecting our mental well-being?

Only then can we start to take action. We can begin to prioritize self-care, seek support networks, and advocate for change in our communities. We can work towards creating safer, more supportive environments that foster mental wellness.

It's time to break the silence around mental health in townships. Let's acknowledge the struggles, let's talk about the stress, and let's work together to create a more compassionate and supportive community.

Rethinking God: Beyond Fear and Dogma

As the CEO, Co-founder, and Executive Director at MyJourney, I've had the privilege of walking alongside individuals from all walks of life. And one thing that's become clear is that our understanding of God is often shrouded in misconceptions.

How often have we been conditioned to view God as a distant, judgmental figure in the sky, watching our every move, waiting to punish us for our mistakes?

But what if this isn't the God we truly know? What if God isn't about fear, control, or obedience? What if God is about love, acceptance, and freedom?

Let's challenge the status quo and explore what it truly means to love God. Is it about blind faith, or is it about questioning, seeking, and finding our own path?

Share with us: How do you perceive God? Have you ever felt trapped by traditional views of God? How do you want to redefine your relationship with the Divine?

The Unseen Struggle Behind a Child's Behaviour

What pains me about this boy's situation is that we're only seeing his behaviour, not the underlying causes. The teachers shared a video of him, and social media has bullied him with harsh judgments. I understand the need for accountability, but circulating the video before a disciplinary hearing was wrong. This could have long-lasting, damaging effects on the child.

I've been in his shoes – kicked out of school and labeled a problem child. It took a toll on my life. That's why I believe schools need life coaches and counselors with an indigenous and streetwise approach. They can help teachers understand and support students like this boy, rather than condemning them.

The boy's behaviour was a cry for help. Let's focus on shaping his future, not destroying it. Teachers, let's show empathy and understanding. Our actions have a lasting impact on these young lives.
