"Working with Trish over the past 18 months has convinced me that utilising her intuitive skills is like having someone handing you the tools to get out of a hole, as opposed to someone getting into the hole to help you. I have found Trish's insights extremely useful in many situations like handling negotiations, decision making and analysing opportunites to name a few."

Rob was the principal lecturer after the tragic death of David Rattray in January 2007, before starting his own business in October 2011. Rob has lectured often in South Africa and Britain since 2005 to audiences of various sizes from 50-750. Rob's lectures/storytelling in Boardrooms, before or after dinner etc (60 to 75 minutes) on Isandlwana, Rorke's Drift or 'Going South with Scott & Shackleton'. Rob is an accomplished tourguide as well as runs tours from Granny Mouse to the Battlefields, Kamberg and the rest of Kwazulu Natal. For more information either view his newsletter or contact Rob directly.
"Debbie and I are still both in awe of our Battlefields experience - and I underline the word "experience". We learnt, we were entertained and we were given time to reflect. It was a spiritual, emotional, intellectual, joyful and physical experience. You can carry the mantle of your "brother" David proudly and without apology. You were fantastic. We have relived the chapter in our lives often and in different ways : listening to the CDs, talking to one another, sitting in silent thought, and enthusiastically sharing it with others.
To say thank you or to congratulate you is a meagre response from us. Instead we will spread the word about you and how special you are, and, perhaps most valuable of all, the humanity of both Zulu warrior and British soldier - their honest obedience, patience, loyalty, bravery and courage. "Abake babonana bayophinde babonane futhi" - those of us who have truly seen one another, will surely see one another again! "
Colin and Debbie Hall.
Steuart Pennington - Good News SA
“You don’t describe the future you see, you see the future you describe” is Steuart’s personal mantra. In 2002 Steuart and his wife walked out of dinner party because the entire conversation was one of running the country down. He was angry that friends could spend an entire evening in negative conversation but he was much more angry at himself. He realised that he knew very little about the truth of the country he was living in. For example: the size of the SA economy in global terms; SA’s global competitiveness; the number of Government departments – those performing poorly and those performing well; the number of hospitals, clinics and schools in the country; what services had been delivered in the areas of housing, electricity and water and what was still outstanding; the SA crime statistics – getting worse or getting better? For more information about what Steuart can do for you please contact him directly.
“Steuart is the one person who gives us hope, who motivates us and show us how we can appreciate ourselves more as CITIZENS OF THIS COUNTRY.”
