Thriver Mind Life Coaching

From Surviving to Thriving.

Thriver Mind is a personal and business coaching company in Hartbeespoort and Pretoria, South Africa. We help you overcome what’s holding you back and unlock the potential you don’t yet believe is in you, so you can thrive in your personal life, your relationships, your career and your business.

No Matter What You've Been Through, You Can Thrive

Our founder’s life is a living example of this.

Shaun Kritzinger grew up with very little. Sport became his way out. Athletics gave a poor kid an income, an identity, and hope. On the track he learned the lessons we still teach today: resilience, that what you put in is what you get out, and that you win by getting up one more time than you fall.

Then at twenty, a truck accident took it all away: his body, and the sport he had built his life around. He hit rock bottom: depression, anxiety, and the belief that his life was over.

But it wasn’t. Someone believed in him, helped him overcome what was dragging him down, and levelled the ground. They equalised the playing field. Slowly, Shaun rose. He found the truth at the heart of everything we do: you are not broken, your past does not have to define your future, and no matter what you’ve been through, you can thrive again.

That is why we are here: to show you it’s possible, and to help you rise.

We Help You Unlock What's Already In You

Our gift is unique: we see the potential you do not believe is in you, and we help you bring it out so you can use it to your advantage. We help you use what you already have, your strengths, your talents, your mind, to your advantage.

Whether you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or you are searching for a breakthrough, in your personal life or in your business, we help you move from surviving to thriving: From Stuck to Unstoppable. Anxiety to Confidence. Burnout to Balance.

“I was broken, which I thought was beyond repair. After just one session I was at peace with myself. For the first time in a long time, I could hear myself think. I felt alive.”
– Natasha Nienaber
“Shaun helped me deal with past trauma and inner conflict. My calmer demeanour has been noted by my colleagues, and my children have become calmer too. I am truly a happier person.”
– Cloe Gentz, Regional Manager
