Introducing
Marguerite Engelbrecht
Financial Planner and Coach partnering with you to rewrite your financial stories and embrace freedom.
Marguerite helps clients re-examine and challenge behaviours which no longer serve them, while co-creating a safe space in which they can learn new strategies, experiment with different approaches, and grow in confidence to effectively manage their resources of time, energy, talents and finances.
Marguerite is a registered Certified Financial Planner® professional with the Financial Planning Institute of South Africa (FPI), a General Tax Practitioner™ member of the South African Institute of Tax Professionals (SAIT), and has obtained the following qualifications: Certificate in Financial Coaching (UFS), Advanced Postgraduate Diploma in Financial Planning (UFS), Postgraduate Diploma in Financial Planning (UFS) and BA Hons (Psychology) (UNISA).
From a young age, Marguerite has been fascinated by what makes us tick as humans. Fairly soon into her working career she became intrigued with the possibilities offered by financial planning as a helping profession, and the close connections between spiritual, emotional and financial wellbeing. As an early adopter of fee-based financial planning, she founded LIFE Tax & Financial Planning Consultants CC in 2004 and has been journeying with client towards freedom ever since, officially joining My Journey 2 Freedom in 2021.

Don’t let the Grinch steal Christmas
A lot of people I speak to this time of the year comment on what a mad rush it is, how crazy busy, how stressful. Dashing frenetically from one year-end event to the next, trying to juggle schedules, expectations, budgets. Feeling stressed out when yet another invitation requires a response, as we vacillate between the quiet voice reminding us of the real state of our bank balance and fear of missing out.
Meet a Change-Maker : Zoë Palmer
“Freedom, to me, means the opportunity to live as the truest version of your self.” – Zoë Palmer. Meet one of the inspiring humans in the MJ2F Community of Change-Makers, an individual with a vision to contribute something of value that will change the world in some way.
A Life Moment : Being Busy vs Getting Things Done
Being busy doesn’t always mean that I’m getting things done. Or perhaps a kinder way to look at it is that I am getting things done and there are also lots of other things that I want to do. The reality is that there are choices to be made every moment of every day in deciding what to do now, next and later.
