At the hellomynameis Charity Lunch and Business Showcase, guests were once again inspired by a truly powerful and emotional talk, this time from Tye Magaya.
Tye shared her deeply personal journey of self-discovery and transformation in her talk titled “Becoming Her: The Power of Choosing You.”
From the moment she began to speak, the room fell silent. Her honesty, warmth, and authenticity filled the space as she spoke about the importance of self-discovery and what it means to truly choose yourself. Her story resonated with many, particularly those who have ever felt lost beneath life’s responsibilities, roles, and expectations.
For years, Tye lived the life she thought she was supposed to live. On paper, everything looked perfect, she was a successful social worker, driving a nice car and raising her daughter in a beautiful home. To anyone looking in, she appeared to be doing well.
Behind the scenes, however, she was running on empty. Exhausted, anxious, and caught in survival mode, she had mastered the art of the mask, showing up for work, showing up for her daughter, but completely neglecting herself.
Her breaking point came one day when she looked in the mirror and asked herself the questions she had been avoiding:
Am I truly happy?
What is draining me right now?
Who am I outside of the roles and titles?
Do I want to live like this for the next five years?
The answers shook her to the core.
Tye made a bold decision to hand in her resignation the very next day. There was no backup plan, no safety net, just a deep knowing that life had to mean more than this. That single act of courage marked the beginning of her journey of self-discovery.
She spent time reflecting, reading, crying, cutting her hair, and healing. Gradually, she began rebuilding her life around what truly felt good, rather than what simply looked good. Most importantly, she reconnected with the person she had forgotten, herself.
Through her talk, Tye shared how easy it can be to lose yourself in the pursuit of success and stability, and how important it is to stop, look inward, and ask what genuinely makes you happy. Her message was clear: it is possible to look “successful” on the outside while quietly breaking on the inside, but it is also possible to choose differently.
Today, Tye is a Self-Discovery Coach and Speaker, helping women who feel stuck, exhausted, or disconnected from themselves find clarity, courage, and confidence to step into a life that feels truly their own. Her work includes one-to-one coaching sessions focused on clarity and confidence, workshops and group coaching for women ready to step into their next chapter, and inspirational talks for organisations and events.
Her ethos is simple yet powerful: you are the author of your story; you are not broken, you are becoming.
Tye’s words touched hearts across the room. Many were visibly moved as she spoke about self-worth, change, and the courage it takes to begin again. Her message served as a reminder that transformation begins the moment we choose ourselves, and that it’s never too late to rewrite your story.
