Leadership and Life Coaching
”Your own Self-Realization is the greatest service you can render the world.
Ramana Maharshi
How coaching with Nerisha may benefit you:
- Greater self-awareness to help you uncover who you are, what you want in life and how to create the life you want to live.
- Improved personal development, inner peace and self-love, which leads to more conscious leadership of self and teams.
- Guides you to uncover solutions for any specific career or personal problem that you are struggling with, by helping you see unique perspectives, which facilitates personal insight and reflection.
- Experiential techniques to manage stress, frustration and anxiety
- But most of all, a safe non-judgemental space to explore your inner world
If you are someone that wants to make a positive difference to your life and those around you, who wants to awaken the Self, then coaching is for you.
Becoming a leader is a choice – but most importantly, is knowing how to lead ourselves effectively
Nerisha’s coaching style is both an art and science, invoking you to unlock your inherent wisdom and walk your life path with clarity and confidence. Combining a unique blend of expertise in ancient Eastern spiritual psychology and global business experience, Nerisha unleashes a higher consciousness in her clients. Her coaching approach also involves expertise in yoga/meditation, the Enneagram, and integral ontological coaching methodologies, ensuring access to practical self-knowledge assessments for her clients. Nerisha’s journey with each client is unique, co-creative, and holistic – unlocking awareness and self-mastery, by working with identifying and transforming limiting behavioural and thought patterns. She uses a holistic approach that tackles specific client coaching objectives, while working with uncovering self-awareness, through experientially exploring the intelligences of the mind, heart, body and spirit.
In addition to corporate clients, Nerisha offers accessible private coaching for clients, ranging from small business CEOs/start up founders to Gen Z graduates – anyone looking for personal development and self-mastery. Sessions are tailored to suit the individual client needs, including online sessions for international and out-of-town clients. Journeying with people from all walks of life, Nerisha’s passion is helping people become alive to the presence of their authentic Selves, which awakens joy, creativity and wholeness.

Coaching programme structure and rates
My sessions are an hour each, currently mostly virtual/online due both to the pandemic, and because most of my clients are globally or out of town-based. Virtual sessions have proven to have benefits over in person, allowing clients to be in their own relaxed space which encourages introspection, and enabling us the flexibility to work more experientially. Private client rates are discounted to enable accessibility, while separate rates apply for corporate clients. As a 100% certified Level 1 B-BEE service provider, my SA corporate clients receive the benefit of preferential spend claim at the highest rate of 135%. Please email me for rates.
How to get started: a client books their first session which is used to understand your context and objectives, and start the coaching process. Our sessions can be tailored to the number and frequency that best works for you. Experience shows that one needs at least 6-8 sessions, at a regular frequency to enable a shift and fulfilment of coaching objectives, which is the basic programme structure, with an option to extend. I am, however, flexible on structure to meet different client budgets and objectives. Coaching, when done with commitment, is a life-changing experience.
