I have known Ilze Alberts for many years and admire her for her conviction and absolute passion to help people become their authentic selves. As a progressive businesswoman, she has touched the hearts and souls of thousands if people who she directly and indirectly taken on a journey of discovery. Her nomination as Woman of the Year in South Africa is an indictment of her knowledge, mastery in her field of expertise and her networking if highly intellectual people across South Africa. Her coaching, educational interventions and programmes based on the Dr John Demartini methods are truly captivating and I am personally in awe at witnessing first-hand how it has changed the lives of her students.
