Description

Lolita’s mission is to help people recall their self-worth, their core values & strengths and make the necessary changes to patterns of behaviour that no longer serve their life goals. She has lived experience with diversity and being treated as ‘other in the country she calls ‘home’’. Lolita knows, we all have our own unique perceptions based on many factors such as our life experiences and the context in which we live.
