Coaching Approach 

Recognise your worth

Our coaching philosophy is based on the belief that our life experiences have already equipped us with the abilities to thrive in our current positions and situations. Through courageous questioning, we help our clients identify the defining moments that have shaped them, gradually peeling away the layers to reveal their inherent abilities.

GOAL

The Kintsukuroi Coach will work with the client to identify a set of short and long-term goals. While we strive to ensure these goals are SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and timely), we also encourage the sharing of inspiring and challenging purpose-driven goals.

REALITY

Through courageous conversations, we will delve deeply into the client’s current reality in relation to their goals.


OPPORTUNITY

After identifying the scope of the current realities, we will assist the client in exploring various goal pathways by utilizing appropriate tools and resources to help them achieve their objectives.


WAY FORWARD

In the final stage of the client's coaching intervention, we utilize survey tools or reflective thinking—revisiting the initial goal and reviewing the steps that led to the client's desired outcome—to highlight the client's achievements and successes.

What Our Clients Are Saying

Enrico Petersen

Working with Liezel has been a transformative experience, both personally and professionally. As a life coach, she guided me through tough real-life challenges. Provided me with the reflective questions , tools and support I needed to overcome obstacles and grow. Her coaching was not only impactful but also deeply personal, allowing me to reflect, take action, and ultimately become a more confident and focused individual. What sets Liezel apart is her dedication and versatility. She didn't just help me navigate life's challenges—she also played a pivotal role in helping me kickstart my own people development consulting business. Her insights and expertise were invaluable as we collaborated on multiple projects, including the development of a workplace soft skills program and a leadership program for school learners. Her ability to blend creativity with practical solutions is unmatched. As a professional coach, author, motivational speaker, publisher and business coach, Liezel brings an exceptional level of professionalism and passion to everything she does. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for personal development, business coaching, or leadership expertise.

Liezel has the remarkable ability to read a person, a room or a situation and provide the response and guidance needed to move them forward, with confidence, on their journey.

 Jarrod Lyons

Executive - Business Development - Atlantis Special Economic Zone

Liezel was appointed by our company to drive a strategic engagement aligning all of staff and their expectations towards our company. Liezel is a breathe of fresh air, with an incredible ability to inspire and motivate people around her. Personally, my journey with Liezel has allowed me to grow into my role as a leader in my organisation. I found myself ‘tested’ by Liezel, always pushing my boundaries promoting new management and leadership styles creating an effective team within the organisation. This spilled over to my personal life and I found myself being more attentive, present and contributory in all situations I found myself in.


Thank you Liezel!

Executive - Integrated Ecosystem - Atlantis Special Economic Zone

For the past 10 months, I have had the privilege of working with Liezel as my coach. At first, I was sceptical as it was a new venture for me. My skepticism quickly vanished as the sessions unfolded. I found a warm, caring, authentic, and motivating coach who understands the art of listening. The sessions with Liezel provided an opportunity to share my professional journey, reflect on what is important, and ensure I treat it with fidelity and integrity. Liezel asked thought-provoking questions that I would engage with long after the session. The coaching sessions allowed me to explore the ever-elusive balance between my personal and professional life to find what works for me. I ventured into these sessions expecting to find a nugget or two, however, I found a goldmine.

My journey with Liezel has been nothing short of transformative. From our very first session, I felt empowered to delve deeper into myself and uncover a greater sense of purpose, not only as a professional but as an individual. Our conversations helped me tap into a resilient part of myself that I had not fully acknowledged before. This resilience has become a key pillar in how I respond to challenges, both at work and in life. As someone responsible for organizational culture and human capital, I’ve learned that leadership begins within. Through our sessions, I have gained clarity, confidence, and the tools to navigate complexities with a calm yet determined mindset. This has not only influenced my decision-making processes at work but also allowed me to lead with more empathy, understanding, and intention.The coaching experience has been a powerful catalyst for change in my life, giving me the courage to embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and the wisdom to nurture a fulfilling and purposeful journey forward.

Natasha Gregory

Client Experience Office - Direct Axis

I had the privilege of being mentored by Liezel. When I first met her, I felt insecure and uncomfortable with developing into my new leadership role, and I sought the services of a mentor to develop the gaps in my leadership abilities. Liezel’s kind and friendly demeanour made it easy for me to speak about my fears and insecurities. Our sessions were well paced, and the topics were adequately aligned to my developmental needs. Liezel encouraged me to ‘Go Live’ after every session, and that gave me the courage to implement what I have learned. Those activities really built on my confidence. I began to understand that I am my own brand and that I have the power to showcase my brand to the world every single day. If you would like to develop your leadership skills, Liezel is the person you should be connecting with.

I met Liezel at a time when I was experiencing a deep personal trauma. Looking back, I realise now how much that event ate away from my confidence and self-worth. Journeying with Liezel opened up my eyes to the many hidden possibilities that still existed in my world,  regardless of what I was experiencing at that time. Liezel was and still is a constant in my life and she unassumingly applies her coaching technique whenever we do engage. Having her in my life has been a tremendous blessing, as my life is now more rewarding because I know my worth cannot be diminished by a personal event. Liezel is an exceptional Life Coach, Mentor and accountability partner and I would highly recommend her to anyone who is still working through life’s unfortunate events.





Revahn Macauley

Regional Manager - FNB Cash Investments WC 

I first met Liezel shortly after accepting a role in junior management; at the time my confidence levels were still low, and I was not functioning at my fullest authentic potential. Liezel’s coaching style transformed my thinking around my natural abilities, and it further gave me the confidence to practically apply my skills at the greatest degree for all workplace activities. I believe my growth and career was fast tracked as a result of Liezel’s coaching influence. Liezel always had a keen interest in wanting to hear my thoughts and never imposed with her own perspective, on the contrary, our sessions always left me with a feeling that I can be a better version of myself. Her kindness and willingness to share from her own experiences also makes her a perfect candidate to consider as your life coach.
