ABOUT HYACINTH & TAIMANA CONSULTING

Determined to stimulate positive change in the leadership and wellbeing of children

I create bespoke workshops for professionals and anyone interested in children’s education. I work in English and Dutch, using the elements air, water, fire and earth to share insights and self-observation tools. In my coaching, we develop strategies to move towards inner-peace and aligned accomplishments.

 

Racial Healing & Education

I have over 30 years personal and professional experience in racial education and healing across African, Caribbean, Asian and European communities. As a coach, teacher and speaker, I host and participate on panel discussions, facilitate workshops, and retreats all to raise awareness and connection beyond unconscious biases, particularly in the fields of education and parenting.

 

Transforming Education

My work aims to transform educational institutions, which often progress slowly in regards to soft skills development, education and application. By focusing on the emotional and social wellbeing and leadership development of the most marginalised students and educators, connections and hope, otherwise unseen, surface and magic happens.

 

Diamond Clarity & Resilience

Taimana is Maori for “diamond”. Diamond’s are created by immense pressure underground and are pushed to the earths surface by earth quakes and volcanic movements. Metaphorically, speaking it is the same with our emotions, which need to surface and be appreciated for the gems they are, before they are carefully understood and managed to bring about their brilliance, resilience and clarity.
