Chante Hinds

Motivation and Womens Issues

Her name comes from the classic love song, One Enchanted Evening and indeed – beauty and blessings have made her life’s journey so far, an enchanted one! The past 12 years has seen Chante present numerous television programmes, of which she was anchor presenter of the current affairs programmes, Good Morning South Africa, Your Own Business and various travel documentaries, both locally and internationally, as well as radio programmes.
 
This has firmly established her in the media industry of South Africa. She is currently starring in the MNet Production, “Begeertes”. Furthermore, she has co-authored many spiritual guidance books, written numerous magazine articles, and been invited as guest speaker to many corporate and international conferences. She is the founding director of interEDGE Training Consultancy that specialises in voice training and accent neutralization and regularly travels internationally for this purpose.
 
Yet, it is the lessons that life has taught, through disappointments and loss, that she describes as the greatest gift of all. She listens to the passion of her soul and sets the wings of her spirit free… Today she shares her story with you and invites you to not let a single song go unsung!
 

Topics and Talks 

 1.    “You belong amongst the wildflowers”.

As modern women we are faced with countless messages telling us to be better, do better, look better. Yet somehow, we are not enough and we are too much at the same time… The heart of a woman has been abandoned in favor of money, power and status. No wonder most women feel utterly lonely, unnoticed and unloved and yearn for three things that will make her feel whole again. This message travels the journey to a woman’s soul – and makes her feel free, light and captivating again.

 2.    “In-Between”

Everything that happens in your life is a building block towards your greater purpose. Yet, life happens and it happens especially to the best of us… More often than not, we find ourselves in-between - in-between jobs, decisions, relationships and choices. This talk helps you understand the process of your preparation and encourages you to exchange facts for faith and “state-of-the-art” for “State-of-the-heart”. Chante draws on her own disappointments and ‘mistakes’ in life, love and self, to bring clarity and healing to many broken and wounded hearts. If you find yourself in-between reality and dreams, hope and despair, loss and gain, then these thoughts are for you.

 3.    “Jane, it’s a Jungle out there!”

 Fortune 500 Magazine brings out an annual list of The Power 50 – The world’s 50 most powerful women in business. This list has reduced the number of female CEO’s heading up blue-chip companies to 497. In “Jane, it’s a jungle out there” we challenge women to break through their internal and external glass ceilings and bring about relevant and dynamic change in the marketplace. Only when women start taking an active part in every sector of society will we see this world become a better place – more alive, more balanced and with a lot more co-operation! This talk gives great insight into the way women conduct business, the trends that we will soon be embracing and inspires us to move beyond gender to a more purposeful existence.

4.    Prepared for Greatness   (NEW!)

Self-help books and motivational talks are great, but what really moves you beyond your own limited capabilities? When it’s just you, your thoughts and the dark? When no one cares and the pace is hectic, how do you survive and maybe, perhaps, even wish for happiness somewhere along the way? The answer came to me one day while I was healing my own wounded heart and playing with my godchildren. It’s always about people! They are the greatest gift you’ll ever have. This talk puts failure in perspective and re-arranges your expectations of personal achievement. It deals with the following issues:
-    How to fight the giants in your life.
-    Free from guilt and shame.
-    Every action has a re-action. Setting the compass of your heart.
-    Your three surprises.

5.    My year by the sea.  (NEW!)

            A memoir.                                                    
‘Guard your heart. It is the wellspring of Life…’
So what do you do if your heart’s been rejected, used or just plain abandoned?  Mine has. Not once, but twice. I have been “high-on-Hope” and fasting on faith just to see the situation turn for the better. It never did. Instead, I lost two husbands and gained back my soul. Today I live a life overflowing with joy and contentment – free from anger, bitterness and revenge.  
You can too…
