BEING DIFFERENT

I am Sharon Wakeford, trading as Being Different. I am a mediator, facilitator, executive coach and trainer, based in Cape Town, South Africa. I have a background in law and over twenty-years' experience in conflict resolution. I love stories - both hearing peoples' stories about their own journeys and sharing the stories of my own life's learnings and lessons. One of my great passions and challenging teachers is the Camino de Santiago, a series of pilgrim paths in Spain, on which I have walked close to 5000 kilometres over the past twelve years - paths that are about ‘doing', but even more so, are about ‘being'... Being masterful of being different is about what matters to us and creating the life experience we desire is not ‘simply' about what we do or how well we do it. Fundamentally it is about our ‘way of being' in the world, because it is our deeper inner world of thoughts, feelings, histories and interpretations
