CAFE LifeThe Art Of Facilitation
CAFE LifeAKA Mandy. Welcome to Resilient Women & Lifestyle, a haven designed with care. As someone deeply passionate about resilience and well-being, my hope is to share my blend of expertise and empathy to guide and support you on a personal or professional journey of growth and development, so you can live a life full of meaning and fulfilment.
Fulfilment in life means feeling truly satisfied and happy with how you’re living. It’s about having a sense of purpose and joy in your daily activities and relationships. Fulfilment happens when you align your actions with your values and passions, achieve your personal goals, and contribute to something bigger than yourself.
Here, you’ll find a sanctuary where you can learn practical skills, tools and strategies that are easy to use and long-lasting. I want to help you not just survive life’s challenges but thrive through them, whilst nurturing your mental, emotional, physical, and soulful wellness.
My style of coaching is to create a safe thinking environment that builds awareness of self and others. This awareness enables forward motion towards your stated aspirations and desired achievements. Such a process honours your best thinking allowing for autonomy and resourcefulness.
Whether you’re looking for immersive workshops, online sessions, or personal one-on-one engagements, I’m here to journey with you with authenticity, empathy and a strong commitment to your potential.
Experience personalized one-on-one coaching to achieve your personal or professional goals. In our sessions, I’ll listen, ask questions, and offer tailored processes to help you build resources, overcome challenges, develop new skills, and stay motivated.

Retreat Life is a transformative retreat that creates nurturing, healing spaces. It removes us from the rush, blending resilience and lifestyle coaching with the restorative beauty of nature to calm and connect us. In today’s fast paced changing world, it’s essential to craft moments of restoration to build our inner spark of resilience and radiance.
The thought of radiant living holds a special place in my practice and heart. It embodies an approach that embraces vitality, joy, and authenticity. Radiant living is about nurturing and nourishing your mind, body, and spirit. It’s about living with purpose and passion and creating a life overflowing with an internal light, a deep sense of inner peace and fulfilment. Influencing not only your own life but also the lives of others.
Radical self–love is about embracing ourselves completely, without judgment or criticism. It’s the profound act of recognizing our worthiness, celebrating our uniqueness, and nurturing a deep sense of compassion towards ourselves.
This type of self–love isn’t about being perfect; it’s about acknowledging our imperfections and loving ourselves unconditionally. It involves setting boundaries that prioritize our well-being, practicing self-care that nourishes our mind, body, and soul, and speaking to ourselves with kindness and encouragement. Radical self–love is a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, where we learn to accept ourselves authentically and live life with confidence and joy.
Reimagined Purpose refers to a refreshed or renewed perspective of one’s life goals, aspirations, and direction.
Life is a journey of constant evolution, and our goals and aspirations may shift along the way. This shift may require exploring new passions, reassessing priorities, or making changes to live a life that feels more meaningful and fulfilling.
Reimagining your purpose is a dynamic process of self-discovery, encouraging you to embrace change and create a path that reflects who you are and who you aspire to become.
“Mandy’s coaching sessions have had a profound impact on my journey of healing and personal growth. From the very first session, Mandy created a warm and inviting space that immediately put me at ease, fostering a sense of trust that allowed me to delve into challenging topics with confidence. Mandy’s coaching style is a perfect blend of empathy, encouragement, and insightful guidance. She possesses a remarkable ability to ask thought-provoking questions that prompt deep self-reflection, leading to moments of personal revelation and growth. The transformative power of our conversations has been nothing short of enlightening, helping me gain a clearer understanding of myself and my path forward. CultureCAMPS, under Mandy’s leadership, has become a sanctuary for me—a place where I can freely express my thoughts and emotions without judgment; it’s a place where I feel supported, accepted, and empowered. If you’re seeking a place for personal growth and deep, meaningful conversations, I highly recommend Mandy’s coaching. It has made a profound impact on my life.”
“I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my sessions with Mandy. She excels in creating a safe and nurturing environment, always respecting my pace and truly listening. With Mandy’s guidances, I’ve used our sessions as a springboard to eliminate obstacles, boost my confidence, and experience significant personal growth. Highly recommended!”
“I went through some very challenging times just before Covid, which really knocked my confidence and self-belief. During Covid, when there was a bit more freedom of movement, I met with Mandy for a few sessions. It helps speaking to someone who is non judgemental and who encourages you to ‘think out the box’. One often feels that you are okay, but Mandy’s easy approach helps one reevaluate your thought process and outlook. She makes you feel comfortable and at home. One has to continuously work at it, especially with all the uncontrollable elements that we keep getting knocked with. It is to learn to change what we can, and accept what we can’t change, which helps us find more peace in our lives.
I would definitely recommend chatting with Mandy especially if you are feeling overwhelmed and needing a ‘pep’ talk!”
“If ever I needed resilience coaching, it was during the dreaded Covid period when both my husband and I, working in hospitality, had the rug pulled out from under us. This resulted in enormous financial stress, especially as our son was still busy with his tertiary studies and we were supporting my husband’s mother. It was compounded by emotional stress due to the loss of loved ones and a feeling of complete and utter loss of control over our circumstances. I did a weekly telephonic session with Mandy and she explored 5 different areas: Personal connections, Accountability, Motion (moving forward and pushing against getting stuck), Perspective and Spark.
Mandy is a great listener, and I was amazed by how much she got out of me. With her assistance I was able to dig deep, take on 3 other ‘side-hustles’, keep my husband and son from losing hope and learnt that it’s okay to ask for help. Best of all, I developed great resilience and found my spark. I came out of the Covid era knowing that nothing will ever get me down like that again, I have the tools within to cope, I was just struggling to find them. Mandy was my blueprint to accessing them.”
“I am incredibly grateful for my time with Mandy as my life and business coach. She has a remarkable way of being both calm and bold, asking powerful questions that truly get you thinking and reflecting. Mandy creates a space where you can speak freely, and before I knew it, our sessions would fly by. Her approach is transformative and insightful, providing the perfect blend of support and challenge. If you’re ready for honest change in your life and business, I highly recommend working with Mandy. She has made a significant impact on my journey, and I am confident she can do the same for you. One of the standout aspects of working with Mandy is the practical tools she provides, which you can use even when she isn’t around. These tools have been invaluable in helping me maintain progress and stay focused on my goals between sessions.”
“I needed a life coach to help me navigate through some life changing decisions. Mandy has been an integral part in helping me navigate through these decisions with ease. Her positive input in helping me see things from a different perspective has imparted such guidance into my life. I am forever grateful. I would highly recommend investing some time with Mandy.”
“I have known Mandy Ivey personally for many years and have always been drawn and attracted to her because of her positive and dynamic vibrant nature and her incredibly delightful interesting outlook on life! When I spend time with her I feel understood, listened to, loved for who I am, and also deeply challenged to grab hold of life with the same creative enthusiasm she does. Seeking out the beauty in my life has been her motivation and she has remained fixed and focussed on my healing and wholeness. When everything was shattering and falling apart in my life I had Mandy to come by my side to help me navigate my “mess”! Over the last three and a half years of life coaching, I have really and truly had “life-changing and life-challenging” experiences! I have been gently and lovingly coached and made to be accountable for change in the best ways possible and I’ve been so encouraged to work on myself. When I look back I realise I have been given life tools which I did not previously have in my life; I was floundering and very ill-equipped. At the age of 63, I was an apprentice who needed a professional to support me in becoming more ‘qualified’ to cope with the maintenance my life required. I was compelled to pull out all the broken parts and deal with all my stuff so I could replace it with new elements that actually worked!
I was also encouraged to not just move on by surviving but by thriving. I’ve been a work in progress (and I still am) however I’m much further down the path to restoration and recovery. Not only have I had the awesome privilege of an excellent personal life coach ( and professional teacher ) but I’ve had the privilege of having a treasured and respected friend who “gets me” and has helped me on the road of life to be the best, most productive and interesting me! Thank you Mands, I’m one of your biggest fans and a product of your training and I know this gift you have within you to walk alongside and mentor, coach, teach and train is your God-given Superpower and it is invaluable in helping so many.
Now, my toolbox is full of excellent tools which I put to use daily. And I know that when I can’t find the tools, you are just a phone call away!”
