I’m Theus Badenhorst, a coach and facilitator with a background in Psychology, Philosophy and Applied Philosophy. I hold a B Soc Sci degree with Psychology and Philosophy as areas of study, as well as an MPhil in Applied Philosophy from the University of Pretoria.
My coaching is not about giving you a set of answers or telling you how you should live your life. It is about creating a space where we can slow down and look honestly at what is happening beneath the surface.
Much of what shapes our lives is the story we have come to believe about ourselves — the beliefs, judgments, expectations and interpretations that have accumulated through our experiences. Over time, we can become so identified with that story that we no longer see it as a story. We simply see it as who we are.
In a coaching session, I may challenge some of those assumptions and invite you to look at familiar experiences from a different perspective. Sometimes that means exploring emotions without immediately judging them as right or wrong, and sometimes it means questioning beliefs about who you think you are or who you think you need to become.
The aim is not to make you into a “better” version of yourself. It is to become more aware of what is actually happening, what has been running your life, and what might become possible when you are no longer simply fighting against yourself.
I offer remote coaching sessions as well as in-person coaching experiences in the presence of horses on my off-grid farm near Bronkhorstspruit, South Africa.
"Working with Theus has been one of the biggest factors in the growth of my business. He gives honest, direct feedback, not simply what you want to hear, but always pairs it with practical, straightforward solutions that are easy to implement.
His guidance has transformed my business from something that was simply getting by into a well-structured, efficient company generating six figures, while also helping me develop the mindset and leadership needed to sustain that growth.
I can confidently say that following his advice has been one of the highest-return investments I've made in my business."

I can wholeheartedly recommend Theus to anyone looking for a life mentor who genuinely cares about the people he works with.
When I started working with Theus, I was carrying the weight of existential depression and a mind full of questions and burdens that I struggled to unpack on my own. He created a space where I felt heard, understood, and never judged. With patience, wisdom, and genuine compassion, he helped me untangle complex thoughts, gain clarity, and begin seeing life from a healthier perspective.
Each month I reserve only two complimentary coaching sessions for people who are ready for change but cannot currently invest in coaching. In exchange, the session is recorded and shared publicly so others can learn from your journey.
