Hi, I’m Telana. And I would love to talk with you!

If you would like to request an interview with me
for a podcast, radio or TV show, article, or your event, please get in touch.

I work with people who want to make changes to live a life they love, and who want to improve their communication skills and ability to express themselves verbally, creatively, emotionally and physically. I specialise in courage, communication, relationships, self esteem, EQ, overcoming self consciousness, handling conflict and fear of confrontation.

BACKGROUND:
I completed my BSc(hons) in Psychology degree at WITS University, and then I spent some time overseas where I worked and traveled in Europe. Upon my return to South Africa, I joined bidorbuy.com and set up the training and operations for the company in South Africa and worldwide. In 2002, I worked as a Coach for Nandos, after which I helped expand Omega Cycling while studying coaching further. I started my own coaching practice, Inner Coaching, at the end of 2004. I’ve worked with hundreds of clients over the last (almost) two decades, and many have shared their experience in these testimonials.

My own challenges with facing fear and communicating led me to specialize in courage and communication skills, and develop training and coaching programmes to help individuals develop their ability to express themselves, and their potentials.
