ABOUT THE FOUNDER

Hi, I am Geeta Pendaer, the founder of 2Justbe, a platform that was coined by my life's journey and experiences; In my capacity of an Artiste in dance in excess of 38 years, Family Group Conference Coordinator and Mediator, I have learnt much from the best teachers ever; children, families and the community.

As a 'looked after child' in the 1970's, having to deal with all types of abuse from those that should have protected and cared for me, I quickly realised mental resilience was the only way forward for me. This for me, was found through dance and music as a child; in my case I shut out everything put on the music and danced with my soul in my ‘special space’ and looked through my own ‘rose tinted glasses' at the world, outwardly. In doing that, I was not paying attention to my 'inner child,' that led to my vulnerability and emotional fragility, determining how to deal with people, and they me. However, on the positive side, my life as an independent, strong, passionate woman lends itself to, achieving much, travelling loads and learning, every day. Sadly, there was a void, a dull ache inside of me that needed healing. It took some time, but I knew that it was time for change. So, I decided to seek 'supervision' of a different kind and stop ‘kidding’ myself and start ‘being kinder to myself.’ I embarked on my holistic journey a few years ago, attending many Mindfulness Retreats, being very ‘present’ and fully understanding the ‘meaning’ of it all; to flying out to Pittsburgh on a ‘whim’ to train in Dancing Mindfulness with Dr Jamie Marich, and completing my NLP Training with Dr Richard Bandler (learning only from the best). I got ‘it,’ not just the certificates and qualifications, but the wake-up call, ‘I woke up,' finally, embracing all the experiences, the challenges, the gains and losses. I now drew on all of the above and started my new healing journey to help others to realise theirs, to take control, in total realisation, on their path to nourishing and nurturing their mind body and soul. This is Cultivation of Resilience at its best…!!!
