Interview
Who are YOU?
I am a funny, special, smart, beautiful, creative,
unique lady from Africa who loves the world.
Heleniq is my nickname as my original name
is Helen. I am a Peak Performance trainer, a
speaker, clinical psychologist, researcher,
conference organiser,
yoga teacher and
drummer.
What is the biggest mistake you
have ever made in business and
what you did you learn from it?
I invested my heart into helping people grow
and develop their own personal form of
expression with the most naive - let's hold
hands and a Michael Jackson type "heal the
world" - approach. Only to discover we all
have egos that make us greedy, possessive,
attached and jealous. Business affects us
harshly when you don't keep that part of you
in check. So when people started to 'copy'
my unique group method and I took it so
personally... I worked on myself to take it less
'personally', realising it is a free market, this is
competition which can turn into collaboration,
so it is actually a compliment. That's when
I rewired it into an invitation to go 'higher'.
So I dug even deeper to source my unique
talent in offering that method and found the
'natural medicine and brain angle of rhythm’,
to be it. That's when I innovated the U.P.
Peak Performance program using Rhythmic
Entrainment to optimise brainwaves for high
achievers, anxiety, addiction and autism. Aha!
Adversity teaches us to transmute, to actualize.
The Holy triad is what my
Heartchild program and
Webinars teach

What type of shoe you are?
I am a 1970s bell bottom matching funky
pump.
What is your major discovery in
life? And how has it influenced
you?
That vibration is everywhere and sound is a
conduit I can use to influence the airwaves
with my words, hearts with my heart, minds
with my intent and all of it with my drum.
How do you take care of yourself
on a holistic level?
Sisterhood, Peak
Saunas, Silence.
States,
Sacred
Sound,
After ten years of meditation and 20 of yoga,
drumming working and inventing myself I got
sick. I stopped for two years to rest before
reinventing myself with with celery, ginger,
white egg broths, a lot of dark chocolate!! and
humility, intensive kundalini kriyas and deep
love for my body - which I respect now as
mortal and a carrier for my spirit.
What will be the biggest
challenge for the generation of
women behind you?
Luminary leadership, really knowing what
matters for personal salvation. Making peace
with what cannot be cleaned up from the
mess we leave behind. Mastering the mind
and presence in this moment after the assault
of noise, stimulation and technology on our
senses. Hopefully a hybrid of this and other
world consciousness can evolve in millenials.
Your work covers a wide
spectrum, how do you manage
with such diverse disciplines
and why?
I always wanted to learn the deep layers of the
iceberg, the universal truth across all barriers. I
found it and through it I find peace. I have used
it to convince some great skeptics and work in
over 13 countries with many diverse cultures.
