From Victim
to Victory

Welcome to my webpage! I am Wilna Jooste, and my passion lies in contributing to a better and more equitable society. Despite facing adversity, I have been blessed with the opportunity to experience the joys of marriage and motherhood. My two children have grown into well-balanced and authentic young adults, which fills me with pride.
In addition to being a wife and mother, I also fulfill the role of a daughter and sole provider for my mother, who suffers from dementia. These challenges have guided me towards discovering my authentic self. Throughout my personal and professional journey, I have gained a diverse range of knowledge through various responsibilities.
People skills and introspection have played significant roles in developing my problem-solving abilities, divergent thinking, and objectivity when faced with challenges. Born and raised in Gauteng, South Africa, I made a life-changing decision to relocate to the Western Cape in 2019. Although this transition presented numerous challenges, I made a conscious choice to create opportunities amidst the chaos.
Once again, I have stepped out of my comfort zone to expand my knowledge through new experiences. One of the most significant challenges I encountered was finding an employer who shares my values and principles. It was then that I realized the new employer I sought was none other than myself.

As a Certified Life Coach (accredited by COMENSA & SAQA), I obtained my qualification from The Academy of York, although most of my knowledge comes from real-life experiences. I lead a life that resonates with my values and principles, finding purpose in assisting and connecting with others. With a creative and insightful nature, I am passionate and altruistic, embracing an individualistic approach. I strongly promote the idea that everyone can discover their value through their unique strengths and abilities. In my view, transition is synonymous with opportunity.
