Sunette
Pienaar
Social Entrepreneur, Founder of
Heartbeat, Compassionate Caregiver
In 2000,
jolted by a statistic that she read in
the newspapers that there were more than
two million AIDS orphans in South
Africa, Sunette Pienaar left her comfort
zone as a Dutch Reformed Church minister
and started Heartbeat, a service
organisation that assists more than
27 000 orphaned and vulnerable children
in accessing water, electricity, housing
and schooling grants.
Join us as
we undertake an explorative journey of
Sunette’s life and core values. Her
story makes a powerful point of taking
individual responsibility for wider
social concerns and presents an inspired
message to look beyond religious dogma
to uncover the true heart of authentic
spirituality.
This episode also takes a
look at how Sunette turns to yoga, music
and meditation to nourish her spirit and
to help her meaningfully contribute to a
better world.
“I believe
that everyday has the potential to teach
us the lessons we need to know in order
to return to Love.” |
