Cheryl is an inspirational speaker and author who delivers thought-provoking presentations that challenge audiences to harness their innate power and become the heroes in their own lives.
This iconoclastic first-generation professional has navigated 16 job titles, eight industries and three careers over 25 years, so she understands a thing or two about constantly reinventing yourself to meet the changing demands of the working world.
Are we subject to the story we’ve been born into, or can we become the heroes of our journey? In this talk, Cheryl shares the idea of reconnecting her head and heart through the power of the story. Using Joseph Campbell’s narrative framework of The Hero’s Journey, she shares candid glimpses from my own life and shows how we can use life’s challenges to unlock hidden personal power.
Graduates are anxious about career opportunities as they enter a tenuous job market. Organisations are struggling to create a more human workplace. What is needed to answer the call for a safe and productive work reality is embracing Wholeness@Work.
Wholeness is defined as having integrity, being full and complete, living from the inside out and creating harmony in the areas of relationships, career and finances.
A wholeness approach to work also alleviates anxiety and burnout, helping employees to be intrinsically motivated and driven by purpose.

One of the best outcomes was the mental wellness and financial mastery courses, which helped our postdocs immensely. The holistic focus on personal development looking at how our vision, goals and purpose are aligned, coupled with building more practical skills for personal management is the most amazing part of the training. Through shared experiences, the workshops always creates a safe space to really explore some of the core issues limiting us.
“Cheryl worked with us on our Women in Leadership Event in PE and she presented on "Lead from Power, not Pain". She had a tremendous impact on the ladies, there were quite a few in tears while listening to her story. Cheryl rated as one of our top speakers and was referred to as ‘inspiring’ and ‘powerful’. We will be booking Cheryl for our next event. If you are looking for impact, inspiration and motivation, then Cheryl is highly recommended.”
Cheryl worked with us at the University of Pretoria as an intervention for one of our departments. She conducted a full day training on values, personality profiles and team dynamics. The training had a far greater impact than expected. She was able to address the root causes of poor employee performance, lack of employee engagement and motivation. We will definitely highly recommend Cheryl as she is knowledgeable and up to date in her field and presents her material professionally.
Thanks for your context-driven, application based training for our postgraduates, Cheryl. "No one ever taught me these things before" - typical feedback that we receive after your sessions. I am confident that this innovative approach allows for our postgraduates, diverse and multicultural, further tools to not only navigate their postgraduate studies but certainly post-university life in general. Would definitely recommend your services to any organisation, especially those producing young talent.
