ABOUT ME
TRANSFORMING YOUR DREAMS INTO REALITY…
My purpose is to see the ‘broken’ healed, the ‘suffering’ prosper and the ‘lost’ loved.
I live to see the world vibrate on the frequency of fullness.
I live to witness your transformation and celebrate you as a work of art!
As a Certified Dream Builder Coach, I can help you design and manifest a life that’s in harmony with your soul’s purpose.
For over 20 years I have worked with hundreds of people in the corporate world, helping them build their dreams, accelerate their results, and create richer, more fulfilling lives.
I have lived with functional depression for most of my life. At the same time, I have always been blessed with a good Corporate Career that became my pillar and reason for existence. But somehow I have always felt that something is missing in my life that I could never quite figure out. Searching for happiness obsessively so, the only reason for my existence where I found my purpose was in my career and as soon as I have had to face life after the office lights went out, I found myself helpless and alone and very depressed.
I had to resort to a life of goal setting to feel the satisfaction of achievement and to keep my mind occupied and away from the many self-destructive thoughts that entertained me on a daily basis and that became part of my being. As a consequence I have pursued various avenues that potentially could lead me to the inner healing I desired, but it was for a very long time in my life only the drive inside me to find my True North that kept me going. Various failed attempts to find the hole inside me did not stop me – I just could not give up on life anymore, because even suicide attempts always proved unsuccessful and Life continued to force me to face the mediocre existence of who I was, head on.
… that I found myself walking on the edge of a hillside staring at the rocks on the footpath. I bent over and picked up the perfect heart shaped rock. In that moment I knew that it was a divine message – not of hope, but of amazing change. This was my reward for not giving up.
Soon after this divine moment, I found myself attending a 13 week transformation coaching course that had changed my life radically. This was only the beginning of the healing that I desired and today I am blessed to share this life changing transformation experience with those of you that are also facing life and its challenges.
It is important that you understand that I have not just read a book that resonated with me – I have literally gone through every change myself, using the tools that I discovered on this journey. An instant spurt of research and studies into the field of Neuroscience and Life Coaching led me to my True North – Transformation Coaching. I believe, that what Life did for me, Life could do for anyone regardless of age – the playing field is level once we understand it (some of us needs clarity, not therapy)!
Please take some time to read through the experiences and results of some of my clients below – the results are profound and in my view the biggest investment any individual could make in themselves. I am here to help you receive the gift of Life – a fulfilled, happy and peaceful life.
“Jan, you are more than a Life Coach. You are a Life Journey Coach, a Soul Coach, a Purpose-driven Life Coach….! There isn’t a label for you…just a beautiful human being who is helping people find their way home, with his strong and loving guidance.” – Karen Powell (a note from my own Life and Transformation Coach)
To help you achieve the magic inside you, I have written the book ‘Get the Hell out of Your own Way’.

A PSYCH-K® session is a simple and effective way for you to change limiting subconscious beliefs that are blocking you from reaching your goals in life!
The average session is usually one hour. Depending on your specific goal or goals, it may be possible to work on more than one issue in the same session. The PSYCH-K®’s sessions can be facilitated in person, online or by phone and they all have the same effectiveness.
I am proud to say that I am qualified as a PSYCH-K® Facilitator
As a qualified Project Manager, I hold a certificate in Leadership Development from University of Stellenbosch, complemented by extensive experience in human development, leadership, and transformation.
I am certified in Christian Counselling and have served as a lay Christian Pastor for several years, offering guidance grounded in faith, compassion, and deep human understanding. My journey extends beyond religion into a broader exploration of spirituality, where I have studied multiple belief systems to better understand the human experience from diverse perspectives.
My work is deeply enriched by a strong therapeutic foundation. I am a Certified Hypnotherapist and practitioner of Rapid Transformational Therapy® (RTT®), a PSYCH-K® Facilitator, and trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT Tapping). These modalities allow me to work at both conscious and subconscious levels, supporting clients in releasing limiting beliefs, resolving emotional patterns, and creating lasting change.
In addition, I am a certified practitioner in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), an IEQ9 Enneagram Practitioner (Levels 1 & 2), and a Neuro-Shine Technology™ Coach. My ongoing studies in neuroscience and neuroplasticity further enhance my ability to guide clients in rewiring thought patterns, building resilience, and unlocking human potential.
As a sought-after Life & Transformation Coach, I have accumulated over 11,000 coaching hours and have worked with thousands of clients globally. I facilitate inspiring workshops to sold-out audiences and deliver transformational, in-depth coaching programs that support individuals, leaders, and teams in achieving new levels of success, meaning, and spiritual aliveness.
My work bridges the power of the mind and the wisdom of the heart—creating a space where awareness expands, potential is awakened, and true transformation unfolds from the inside out.
