Thandi founded RestorEgo in 2003 in recognition of the gaps in culturally sensitive approaches and the disparities that exist between the health and environments of different people and groups.
"Following a series of life changing events, I decided to follow my heart and create work that would allow me to live the truth of my heart whilst contributing to society. My quest was to help address these health and socio-economic inequalities and help improve my life and the lives of others through education, challenging stereotypes and promoting positive images of people otherwise negatively portrayed.
Life conspired with me and the vision for restorEgo was born.
It’s been a challenging, but an interesting and worthwhile journey strewn with many high and lows, confusion and sometimes self doubt. However the rewards have been immense. The experiences, learning and growth I’ve gone through have far outweighed all else. I am proud to say that, now almost 7 years later, with the help of family and friends, and a committed and passionate team, restorEgo has crystallised into a Consultancy in its own right.
My debt of gratitude is reserved for all the clients, participants & sponsors who've believed in us, used & supported our services. Because of you, not only have we developed our practice, but can also confidently & proudly call what we do 'work’."
