Testimonials

“My sessions with Adri were invaluable to assist me in getting out of a rut in my life. She is like a mirror that reveals necessary changes to be made in one’s life. Since then, I have experienced peace and can identify when I’m heading towards the same pattern. She does this in a loving and caring manner and allows you to realise what you already know to be true.”

“Allowing Adri to work with me on my goals really shaped my thinking and perspective on life. She is very compassionate in her engagement and always leaves room for you to be yourself. The tools she offered me in the months that we met up, I am still implementing. She helped me discover and unfold the things that kept me bounded. With her guidance I was able to set boundaries and stick with it. My life has truly transformed and I am eternally grateful to her.”

–          Sara Allelluia, Cape Town, South Africa.  

“Adri coached me through a period of great transition and uncertainty with the utmost care and keen insight. I felt heard, seen and empowered to make choices. I am immensely grateful for her gentle guidance, practical tools and personalised themes that helped me find my voice, sharpen my focus and walk through fear with compassion. Highly recommended.”

–          Lezanne van Heerden, Cape Town, South Africa

“I was lucky to have Adri as a coach during her coach training. She helped me see something in myself that I had hidden under a big pile of ‘life mess’. Accessing this ‘superpower’ helped me to show up stronger and more confident. I was quite blown away at how much can be achieved in a short coaching program. Recommended!” 

–          Yael Duncan, Zurich, Switzerland

“Adri pulled me through the most difficult time of my life when the doctor couldn’t cure me. She has taken me from living life as a First Aid Kit (and working myself into the ground) to becoming a Lighthouse for my community. She taught me how to use the right tools in the community and not make myself sick in the process of serving others. What an amazing mentor she was and to this day I’m still using those tools over and over again. Today I can also help other people with the challenges that they face, using what I learned through coaching.”

–      Antionette Serrone, Fisantekraal President of the Lion’s Club International

“Before I began my sessions with Adri, I had never heard of a life coach before. Now I can’t recommend getting someone like Adri enough. She helped me realise certain aspects of myself I had never taken the time to consider before, and has helped me find the means to move forward and keep up that pace for many years to come.”

–          Michael Strugnell, Cape Town, South Africa

“Getting a life coach was never something I thought I would ever do. I was raised to believe that we don’t talk about our issues, we just find a way to move each day and just get on with it. That is until I got an opportunity to be coached by Adri. After just one session, I realised that I was carrying so much and unnecessarily at that. Adri offered me the space to realise what I was capable of in a gentle, thoughtful manner. I came to enjoy our sessions. They left me feeling connected, grounded and like I could do anything I set my mind to. My biggest achievement in our coaching journey is realising that I am enough.”

– Nwabisa Luzipho, Cape Town, South Africa

“What a wonderful experience being coach by Adri Rosenthal! Adri is attentive, honest, genuine and kind. She deeply, deeply cares about people and their well-being, and she has such a beautiful way of explaining hard truths. Her gentle way of speaking made me feel at ease and I felt free to be completely transparent from the very beginning. I believe I was able to benefit so much more from our sessions simply because of this! I will forever cherish Adri and the impact her sessions have had on my life!!”

– Caitlin, Cape Town, South Africa

My coach training has been such a transformative experience, and a big part of this is the ongoing community with my fabulous fellow coaches whom I value deeply. A cadre of people dedicated to developing themselves, supporting each other, serving our clients and building bridges. A bunch of people who stubbornly insist on living from a place of abundance and are not afraid to see and celebrate the good in others. I highly recommend you check out their work!

What is not lost on me is that a few years ago people would’ve been writing about my intelligence more than my care – this is what my ego was based on as Enneagram 5: being insightful, competent, thoughtful, observant, and able to concentrate on developing complex ideas and skills. I see the magic happening in the space where compassion and skillful means overlap.

Hear what a few of them have to say about me now:
