Johanna Botzkowski
Holistic Business Coach & Leadership TrainerinHello,
thank you for your interest. I am Johanna Botzkowski, collegues would say I`m a `Flame Agency` and a `Heart Core Manager`.
Born in Germany and alive for many years in the cultural metropolis Berlin plus in Cape Town.
I am a creative, holistic entrepreneur, following my inner voice & purpose with all my heart. While my mind went into sustainable tourism management studies (Master of Arts), my soul and body expanded into the competency fields of the creative arts, dance and therapeutic movement research.
