Meet the Team
Cal
Cal was born in South Africa and spent many family holidays visiting and enjoying the magic and splendour of the African bush. The bush ranks as her top soulful life experience. Combining her passions of travel, adventure, the bush, and personal growth she created the Indlovu Coaching Retreat.
Cal is a Certified Master Life Coach with Martha Beck, and an International Coach Federation (ICF) Certified Coach. She is also a student of Byron Katie’s work.
Cal spent two decades working for organisations on the ‘people’ side of transformational change programs. She is inspired by human potential and the art of transformation. She now runs her own private coaching business and supports her clients to create and navigate big changes and live with more meaning, joy, freedom, impact, and ease.
When not working in her business she enjoys being with family and friends in nature, travelling, good coffee, campfires and great conversation. Her greatest joy comes from being a mom and watching her two young adult children forge their own paths in the world.
Cal has travelled and worked around the world having lived in South Africa, Canada, USA, Europe, and the UK.

Jess grew up in South Africa loving nature and the African bush.
