Mariandra Heunis

Mariandra Heunis My Life took a vicious turn the night my husband was brutally murdered in front of us. I had to LIVE, and make a GOOD life for our 4 little children. Day by day.

I am a mommy, deathcare specialist, Life coach and NLP practitioner. The life I knew and loved was brought to a shocking halt the night my husband was murdered in front of myself and my 3 little girls. I was 8 months pregnant with our fourth child; our son, at the time. What came after this, was a rapid series of life-altering decisions to be made in a short period of 2 weeks... And then to rebuild a new normal. I made the choice to live life fully, despite of what had happened - standing on every promise of hope. Making new memories and growing through the pain, tears, frustration and also the joy and blessings. I am grateful for how far we have come. And we are not done yet. In this tragedy is where I also found my calling. To assist other families in their darkest hour - when a loved one passes away. If I can’t be a light in the dark, I will sit with you in the dark for a moment. Because I understand. I offer personalized funeral services to each and every family. From the first call. With care and compassion. It is a sacred work. Step-by-step. As a value added service I also offer Grief counseling - not only to my clients, but whoever may be in need of such services. I have walked this path. And I have studied grief and trauma - and still do to expand the toolbox of techniques and knowledge ongoing. I am - the most powerful words. What you put after it, defines you. I am - Mariandra Heunis. I am changing, growing and making a difference. Where I am, with what I have. I am not just a widow, single mommy, deathcare specialist. I am so much more. With appearances on Kwela, Ontbytsake and various other alternative media channels - it is a privilege to share our journey AFTER. The beauty after the storm. We are still here.

I have been offline more than I was online for a while - it's been a crazy busy year so far. I'm exhausted. And it's only the 3rd day of the 3rd month 🤭

Rhythms of our schedules and routines should settle shortly (probably days before the short break of school holidays 🤣🙏🏻 and then we rinse and repeat)

1 parent vs 4 busy children. 24/7. With a 24/7 career. What a privilege it is, I tell myself loudly and in whispers when life throws a daily curveball or two. It really is though. Busy kids mean healthy, growing kids. Busy schedules mean growth and that I have the answered prayers of work. Which supports the life I have built for myself and my children. It is a blessing.

Is it easy? No ways. Is it worth it? Absolutely.

I stand on promised land. Growing with God. I realized that I have to keep in close orbit around Him as He leads me on the right path. His plan vs my plan = guided, protected and provided for. It's a daily choice, practice and a work in progress, always.

May March be filled with answered prayers. Miracles, big and small 🤍✨️🤍

Our mornings are rushed 😉 But 'how' I do the rushed, makes a difference. Mornings set the tone for the rest of the day. Even if there is a strict routine, and a lot to do to get the day started (4 x school-going children), I try to find quiet time before everyone wakes up, and then create little pauses in the get-going.

Of course, some mornings throws a few wild cards, but then we try again tomorrow 🌻🌞

I am Mariandra Heunis

The life I knew and loved was brought to a shocking halt the night my husband was murdered in front of myself and my 3 little girls. I was 8 months pregnant with our fourth child; our son, at the time. What came after this, is our ‘new normal’.

I offer personalized funeral services to each and every family. With care and compassion. It is a sacred work. Step-by-step.

I am also focused on inspirational speaking - I share my journey AFTER. The crazy, backwards-forwards path - always moving. It takes perseverance and grit to keep moving when you feel that you really can’t. But, you have that too!

I am - the most powerful words. What you put after it, defines you. I am - Mariandra Heunis. I am changing, growing and making a difference. Where I am, with what I have. I am not just a widow, single mommy, funeral director. I am so much more. But still figuring it all out. And that’s okay. It will be okay!
