Heal, Empower, Thrive

Choose You; Choose Life

Through faith, the support of my family, friends, and those around me, coaching tools, and determination, I tenaciously fought back. This transformative journey has empowered me to channel my pain into purpose.

My approach is compassionate and tailored to your unique journey. I aim to inspire, challenge, and encourage you. I teach and share, using coaching tools to assist you in choosing yourself, making your needs and development a priority. To embrace and enjoy an abundant life again. My mission is to help men and women believe in their capability to heal, looking within, empowering, and thriving as whole, complete individuals.

My Vision:

To help individuals move from victim to victor by taking 100% responsibility. To encourage men and women to put their own "oxygen masks" on first. We are our own rescuers; we are the solution we are looking for. Contrary to popular fairy tales and fables, there is no knight in shining armour coming to set us free. We are alive for a specific reason and purpose, born for a time called “Now!” My philosophy is, "If it’s to be, it is up to me.”

My passion for speaking and coaching developed later in life, and I am energised and find fulfilment in helping others recognise their self-worth and evolve, develop, and grow into their best selves.

Debrah

Who is Debrah?

My name is Debrah Anne, currently residing in Polokwane, Limpopo, South Africa. I’m a daughter, former wife, mom, sister, friend, businesswoman, teacher, inspirational speaker, and life coach. 

I was ​Born in Pretoria, South Africa, where I grew up. I started working and earning pocket money from a young age and knew I wanted more from life. With continuous hard work and faith, I evolved into the businesswoman and encourager I am today. Overcoming challenges like death, betrayal, and grief has shaped my character and strengthened my resolve to turn my pain into purpose and help others do the same. 

Having walked a painful path of grief and separation, I deeply understand the pain and confusion it can bring. My son passed away in June 2012, when I found myself at a crossroads where I nearly gave up on life.

I find Debrah’s empathy and ability to touch hearts of others moving. She is able to help her audience see through the dark areas of their lives and work out a way to wholeness and joy. I highly recommend her courses and her work as a speaker.

I had the wonderful opportunity to be coached by Debrah, several times and I’m so happy to have met her. I highly recommend Debrah who is an amazing coach. Debrah is a wonderful coach. When she is coaching me i feel secure and safe to talk about any topic. She offers a secure and neutral environment, where she displays 0 judgment and 0 opinion, where i can see how my thoughts are creating or have created my results. During the session, Debrah stays curious, open-minded and focused on the situation she is coaching me on. When she is reflecting back how my thinking is creating or has created my results, she’s always clear and precise. This helps have more clarity and awareness about my current paradigms. Finally, thanks to her curious questions, she offers me more awareness about myself and paves the way to new perspectives. I really enjoy my coaching sessions with her where i really learn about myself and the world. Thank you, Debrah.

We've known Debrah for a while, and during the past few years, our friendship has grown significantly. Through a very trying time in our lives, Debrah has been a huge support and source of strength. Debrah is incredibly passionate about giving people new hope and guiding them through situations that seem hopeless while equipping them to build stronger lives. With a lifetime of continuous learning and development, real-life experience as a wife, mother, public speaker, and owner of several enterprises, and someone who has overcome tragedy herself, Debrah has the power to inspire optimism and assist people in not only surviving but triumphing over their challenges and building the lives they desire. I wholeheartedly endorse Debrah to anyone who feels stuck in a particular stage of their lives.

I am continually humbled by the positive feedback from those who have attended my sessions. Participants often share how my story and insights have sparked significant personal growth and a renewed sense of purpose. Here's a glimpse of what some have said:
