This resonates: ‘Being a Conscious Lawyer isn't about perfection.
It's about being the best you can be.
It's about caring.
It's about giving others the same level of care that you would hope for if you were in their shoes.
It's about Excellence.’

Some lovely feedback from a client:

Thank you for all your support and assistance from the time of the passing of my Mom to the mediation ,the engagements with my siblings around my Moms will and the process to wrap up her estate.

I really could not have done this without your words of encouragement and support at times.

I appreciate you as a person and the human factor that you brought into this entire process.

I would recommend you to anyone that has to go through such a process.

Thank you once again. Take care and stay the compassionate person that you are.

For those who were interested here is the video of my talk. I hope I managed to get my message across. As I said I was super nervous but I did it. It has been a really wonderful opportunity to be a part of the Cape Town PechaKucha community!

And I wouldn’t be able to do it without my ‘like-minded professionals’ Gill Faris, Lorna Olckers and Di Burger.

A brave article about much needed change.

At 3am, when even the best care teams are not present, the hardest conversations happen. It’s time we faced them honestly.

People often ask me if I’m religious. If I were this would be my religion:

There is a sacred kind of wisdom that can only be found in the quiet places—where the rustle of leaves speaks louder than words and the wind carries away what no longer serves the soul. In nature’s embrace, far from the noise of the world, we remember who we are. It is here, in the gentle hush of trees and under the patient watch of the sky, that reflection deepens, wounds begin to heal, and transformation unfolds—not through force, but through the slow, generous rhythm of the earth. In that stillness, we are gently altered—quietly reshaped and completely transformed.
