Tefo Atholang is headed to Windhoek, Namibia to host a Midyear Intention Setting Session slated for Saturday.

The co-founder of Botswana Sip & Plan, an organisation that empowers people to plan strategically and intentionally work to realise their various goals, has partnered with Namibian lifestyle organisations, Articulate Communications and Pamper Me to host the goal setting session.

Speaking in an interview with BOPA, Atholang said they facilitated individuals on how to plan for the year, as a way of developing a pathway to channel their focus and reaffirm purpose in their lives.

She said the Windhoek sessions would help people to plan on areas such as finances, mindfulness, health, leisure and personal development.

She said she was humbled to be able to share her acquired soft skills with the people of Namibia, adding, ‘these skills have catapulted my career and thought process to another level’.

Atholang said she would be hosting the session with Malik Shehu, cofounder of Sip and Plan in Botswana and a financial advisor, who would educate people on budgeting, wealth and debt management.

She cited organisations such as UNICEF, Ministry of Youth Gender, Sport and Culture and St Joseph’s College, among those she had facilitated in Botswana, over and above private sessions.

Some of the activities that take place at the Sip and Plan sessions, she said, were drawing of vision boards as a way to plan for the year.

Past sippers and planners who have attended Atholang’s sessions such as Mphatso Guduli, a monitoring and evaluation officer at Young Minds Africa, said her use of personal experiences and vast knowledge had inspired him to look deep into his own growth plans and create processes to achieve tangible growth.

Oratile Gaopotlake, a managing partner at Warona Law Office, said she was impressed by Shehu, who broke down financial concepts in a relatable manner and offered everyday solutions.  ENDS
