Are you're exhausted from overworking and overextending yourself? Maybe you're realizing that your career is draining you. Or maybe you're feeling ready to honor the quiet call to do something different.

At Self Made Journey, we offer coaching programs that help you reset, rebuild, and create a way of living and working that's actually sustainable.

You know something needs to shift, and you can’t ignore it anymore.

Real transformation doesn't happen overnight. It happens in stages—like a seed becoming a flower. First, you work at the root. Then, you rise. Finally, you bloom.

Every program at Self Made Journey blends neuroscience-backed tools with intuitive, embodied practices. Because lasting change requires both: rewiring the mental patterns sabotaging you, and reconnecting with the wisdom your body has been trying to show you all along.

    Root | 7-Week Group Program

    The Science of Coming Home to Yourself.

    Root is an intensive 7-week immersion in the Positive Intelligence® (PQ) framework. Led by our PQ® Coach, you will learn how to quiet the mental noise and rebuild the internal foundation required to live a life that actually nourishes you.

    This journey is for you if:

    You’re tired of the "inner critic": You want to recognize the negative mental patterns that drain your energy and cloud your potential.

    You want to trust your "Sage": You are ready to activate the part of your brain that fosters resilience, empathy, and creative flow.

    You seek a safe "pod": You want the warmth and accountability of a small group of women walking the same path.

    Rise | 3-Month 1:1 Program

    Rise is designed for the woman who is close to her breaking point and needs a guide to help her step off the treadmill. We combine the 7-week Positive Intelligence® foundation with five personalized 1:1 coaching sessions to ensure your new mental muscles support your unique life.

    This journey is for you if:

    You need a lifeline: You are currently burned out and require immediate, personalized support to rebuild differently.

    You want to listen again: You’re ready to stop ignoring your body’s signals and start honoring your actual capacity.

    Bloom | 6-Month 1:1 Program

    The Transformation: The Full Expression of You.

    Bloom is a 6-month immersive journey for the woman who is ready to unlearn the conditioning that makes slowing down feel "dangerous." We move through the full PQ® Program and then spend four months in deep 1:1 coaching, navigating the sacred and the strategic alike.

    This journey is for you if:

    You are at a crossroads: You are navigating a major career transition or a complete life pivot.

    You want to heal the pattern: You’re ready to address the deep-seated beliefs and "Saboteurs" that keep you in a cycle of overextension.

    You want lasting trust: You desire to reclaim your voice, set fierce boundaries, and learn to trust your own "Sage" wisdom implicitly.

Hi, I’m Pam

I learned about burnout the hard way.

As a high-performing professional and mom, I ignored my body’s signals until I was forced to stop. That breaking point became my greatest teacher. Now, I use that lived experience—combined with neuroscience-backed tools—to help women rebuild before they reach a crisis.

My Approach:

  • Embodied: Reconnecting you with your body’s wisdom.

  • Scientific: Rewiring the mental patterns (PQ™) that lead to depletion.

  • Strategic: Aligning your career with your actual capacity.

  • Release: Walk away with a clearer understanding of how to begin your shift into a more fulfilled version of yourself.

No pressure, no sales pitch—just a quiet space to be heard.

  • —Reikanne Selela

    "Pam created a safe space where I could actually sit with my emotions instead of just pushing through. She led me to find the answers myself instead of telling me what to do. Now when negative thoughts come up, I talk back to them. I advocate for myself."

  • -Natasha Pater

    "I came to Pam feeling overwhelmed, but now I’m focused on my larger vision and I have the tools to get there—even when the path isn’t linear. The most powerful realisation was that I was holding myself back to save the feelings of others, but Pam helped me understand that I’m incredibly capable. She arrived full of truth and light to help me grow."

  • -Gift Sizakwe

    "Pamela created a safe environment where I felt seen, understood, and heard. Through her service, I was able to overcome my fears and mental blocks to truly go for my dream career. Today I am in a career I've always wanted to be in, but didn't think I had what it takes to get into."

  • -Wongalethu Simayile

    "Thank you for creating a safe space and for being a safe space. It is rare to find people who listen for understanding, rather than jumping in to give answers. Through coaching, I learned to identify the issues and stand up for myself; my confidence has improved and I’m learning to extend grace to myself."

  • -Siyabonga Sithole

    "Coaching gave me a sense of purpose and direction, helping me learn to prioritize tasks and stay intentional in high-pressure situations. I am now able to freely express myself and offer my input without fear, receiving feedback with grace and an open mind. It has been the best thing I could do for myself; I’ve learned that all spheres of life are interlinked and I can finally be an authentic, complete human being."
