Her story so far

Dhanusha Dhoorgalu is South Africa’s pioneering Self-Care Coach, based in Cape Town, and a leading advocate for corporate wellness. As a distinguished speaker and coach, she is dedicated to helping millennial women in the world prioritise their well-being, enhance their performance, and prevent burnout.

Her journey into self-care began after a transformative experience at the age of 22, which prompted her to tackle her perfectionistic tendencies and seek a more balanced approach to life. With a solid background in digital marketing and IT, and currently studying Psychology, Dhanusha offers a unique blend of practical and psychological insights in her coaching.

Raised in Durban by a single mother, Dhanusha’s upbringing in a resilient and independent environment has deeply influenced her approach to self-care. Her experiences have shown her that even as women progress professionally, many still struggle to prioritise their own well-being amidst their busy lives.

Dhanusha’s mission is to integrate holistic self-care practices into the daily routines of corporate professionals. Her approach covers mental, physical, psychological, spiritual, emotional, and social well-being, which she also shares throughout her social media channels.

As South Africa’s first self-care coach and creator of unique self-care resources, Dhanusha is passionate about empowering corporate women to embrace holistic self-care and unlock their full potential. Her unwavering commitment to making a positive impact in the corporate wellness space drives her mission and work.

Her Creations

In addition to her coaching, Dhanusha has created several innovative tools to support women’s self-care journeys. She is the author of South Africa’s first Self-Care Journal, designed to help individuals track and enhance their well-being. She has also developed Self-Love Affirmation Cards and an Adult Colouring Book for Women, both crafted to inspire and facilitate personal growth and relaxation.
