a few nice things to say

"The coaching sessions helped me gain clarity about my goals and objectives through insightful questioning and reflection. This clarity provided a sense of direction and purpose, guiding my actions towards meaningful outcomes.

Marlene demonstrated a high level of expertise in her field, providing valuable guidance and insights, tailored to my specific needs and goals. Her deep understanding of coaching principles and techniques allowed her to offer practical strategies and solutions that were instrumental in my personal and professional development."
andre fourie
"I used to feel uncertain about whether I have taken the correct steps to ensure my life is more balanced.  I no longer doubt that I am on the correct path. I will continue with the plan I have laid out for myself.  

Thank you for helping me understand my actions and behavior better.  I would recommend anyone who would like some guidance on self-discovery."
RILENE COETSER

"Before I met Marlene from Authentilife I stressed about the idea of retiring in four years (due to company policy). Marlene and I had an initial meeting, and we discussed the coaching programme, it did not take much to get me hooked on the idea of signing up for the coaching programme.

The Authentilife coaching programme helped me to identify specific goals and meet my expectations. After the seven-week programme, I had a well-developed plan and a strategy knowing exactly what and where to go from point zero to hero."

marinda engelbrecht

"At first, I was worried and did not know what to expect, but after my second session, I was very excited.  Working with Marlene gave me the following benefits: Being yourself and being happy.  Helping yourself first before you help others is not a selfish act.  I have also learned that to say NO to someone is not wrong. 

Marlene was very friendly from the start until the end.  She went through everything, one step at a time.  I felt free to speak about anything to her, because I trusted her."
