October-December 2019

dedicated himself to studying Zen and Hojo, a Japanese
Martial Arts sword-fighting technique.
At the end of this quest, he returned to South Africa
to launch Brett Shuttleworth as a transformational
brand. Through a perfect blend of transformation and
hands-on inspiration tools, culminating in the wisdom
he found through his travels, he was on the path to
inspiring a whole new generation of leaders.
Brett quickly become known as the rockstar of
transformation, with clients such as Virgin Active,
Sanlam, Arcelor Mittal and Vodacom hiring his services
to inspire their most relevant teams and forefront
players.
Today Brett has the freedom to create the exact life
he wants to live, facilitating transformation for people
globally, and has made travel an essential part of his
lifestyle.
This includes the launch of the Smiling Soul
Retreats which are reaching people in a different way.
The intention behind each Retreat is to expose a choice
destination while integrating all of Brett’s teachings,
through local cultural experiences, adventure, fun and
travel. India was the launching pad for the Retreats and
thereafter was followed by Bali and now, retreats also
being hosted in South Africa.
Next projects include Incentive Programmes and
Customised Yatras (retreats on yachts) for professional
teams who want a personalised experience designed,
while having a great time.
As a visionary, Brett shares his wisdom with anyone
who is seeking enlightenment, peace, success and
optimal happy living, from the man on the street, to
corporate clients, sports teams and elite performers, to
individuals who work with him through the coaching
that he offers.
People often ask Brett how he changes someone’s
life and what he is pointing them towards.
“To me crossing the river from the outside world
to the inside world, is where and how you discover
your true self. It is a loving intelligence and intelligent
love that exists beyond the senses, beyond the mind
and body. We want to make the spiritual process
mainstream. Something beyond body and mind should
become a living experience for everyone in the world.”
“If I did not see evidence of my work changing
people’s lives, I wouldn’t do it, why would I want to?
I know for a fact that within each and every one of
us, there is this marvellous knowing: that we are
destined for greatness and the expression of our
highest selves to the world. It is a self that you
haven’t been trained to believe in; you’ve been
trained to believe in your ordinary awareness.
My mission is
to guide you back
to your source
of extraordinary
potential, thereby
creating a ripple
effect of love across the
globe.”
