She worked closely with the financial regulators in South Africa to ensure that South Africa’s largest privately-owned insurer complies with and lives up to customer regulations.

Odette’s extensive experience with business growth has ignited a desire to raise the bar for entrepreneurs globally. The era of trading time for money is over.

In this powerful episode of Off Topic But On Point, three friends with radically different strengths come together to explore what it means to build for eternity, not just success.

Odette de Beer (business coach and Global strategist), Ps Christo Pretorius (kingdom visionary and expander), and Dr Janine Do Cabo (identity and healing specialist) unpack the keys to creating legacy — not just in business or ministry, but in life.

Together, they explore the foundations of legacy-driven leadership, the spiritual weight of stewardship, and the courage it takes to multiply what God has entrusted to you.

This episode will challenge your metrics, recalibrate your focus, and leave you with practical tools to build beyond the moment — and into the eternal.

What We Talk About:

• What it really means to build for eternity (not just performance)
• Why legacy isn’t what you leave to people, but what you leave in them
• Three foundations of a legacy-driven business
• How to steward your purpose in the mundane
• Multiplication vs. burnout — the healthy way to scale kingdom vision

Takeaway Keys:

✅ Audit Your Alignment

✅ Create a Stewardship Habit

✅ Start Multiplying — now

Quotes to Remember:

Odette de Beer: "Legacy is like customer experience – it’s the feeling you leave behind after people deal with you. Do they feel smaller, or do they feel bigger than they thought they were?"

Pastor Christo Pretorius: "Legacy is not what you leave for people; it’s what you leave in people."

Dr Janine Do Cabo: "Real legacy is not what we leave behind, but what we leave in people – values that outlive our presence and ripple into generations."

This week on Off Topic but On Point, we unpack the power of rest, not as something you do after the hustle, but as a strategic, spiritual weapon. I (Odette) share what God has been speaking to me lately, especially around Isaiah 45 and the invitation to trust even when it feels like nothing is shifting.

Dr. Janine drops wisdom on the five types of rest and how to plan rest like a business expense. Ps Christo brings it home with practical insight on identity, spiritual leadership, and why rest is an act of trust, not weakness.

We go deep into:

• Why rest isn’t optional—it’s obedience
• Leading yourself before you lead others
• How to identify the kind of rest your soul needs
• The link between identity, rest, and spiritual authority
• How to walk from victory, not strive for it

Rest is resistance. | Rest is obedience. | Rest is warfare.

• Needs permission to stop striving
• Feels stuck, unseen or spiritually burnt out
• Is leading others but hasn’t paused to lead themselves

Drawing from scripture, the image of God’s table, and the journey of Abraham, Odette unpacks how our identity shapes how we lead, build, and influence. You’ll discover why leadership grounded in identity is sustainable, life-giving, and deeply impactful.

Odette also shares her T.A.B.L.E. framework — a practical guide to help you align your leadership with who you were created to be.

If you’re a business owner, entrepreneur, or leader who desires to build from authenticity and purpose, this conversation will leave you inspired — and ready to take your next step.

In this powerful and personal episode of Off Topic but On Point, Odette de Beer is joined by Dr Janine Do Cabo and Pastor Christo Pretorius to unpack one of the most foundational questions we can ever ask: Who am I, really?

They dive into:

• Why most people don’t lose their identity—they never knew it to begin with
• The role silence plays in rediscovering who you are (and why distraction is delaying your destiny)
• The difference between becoming more versus doing more
• What happens when you let go of who they expect you to be—and step into who you were always meant to become

From childhood conditioning to spiritual formation, this conversation isn’t a pep talk. It’s a permission slip.

💡You’ll walk away with:

• A practical “FIND” framework to rediscover identity
• Soul-level questions that unlock personal clarity
• A reminder: you don’t need to hustle to become—you need to believe deeper.

This is the kind of episode that sits with you for days.

If you’ve ever wrestled with identity, labels, or letting go of the version of you that was built to survive—this one's for you.

🔔 Hit follow. 📤 Share this with someone in their becoming season. 🧭 Ask yourself: Who would I be without fear—and what’s the one decision I’d make from that version of me?

This isn’t a highlight reel—it’s the conversation most leaders avoid. Together, they dive into the emotional cost of conviction, why influence without depth feels empty, and how to keep showing up when no one’s clapping. If you've ever wondered whether you're behind, off track, or just tired of waiting for the "breakthrough moment"—this one’s for you.

Whether you're leading a business, building something from scratch, or quietly staying faithful behind the scenes, this episode reminds you: you’re not late—and you’re not alone.

What you'll hear:

• Why obedience rarely looks impressive
• The difference between pace and purpose

Passion fuels your energy, but without purpose, it leads to burnout, frustration, and—let’s be real—empty bank accounts. Purpose gives direction, but without passion, it feels hollow. The real secret? Aligning both. When passion and purpose work together, profit becomes a natural byproduct—not something you have to chase.

In this episode of Amplify with Purpose, we’re unpacking the formula: Passion + Purpose = Profit and, more importantly, how you can make it work for your business. You’ll discover: ✅ The difference between passion and purpose—and why your business isn’t your passion ✅ A quick “Heartbeat Test” to check if your business is truly impact-driven ✅ Three practical actions to align your passion with a purpose that creates sustainable profits

I’ll also share a powerful real-world example from Haigh’s Chocolate—showing why people don’t just buy products; they buy stories, experiences, and meaning.
