About Us

Pretty Moments was founded by Aviwe Mahanjana, an agricultural professional and entrepreneur who has experienced first-hand the value of having the right people in your corner. The guidance and encouragement she received from life and career coaches shaped her belief that people can live up to their potential when they have the right knowledge, support and people walking alongside them. Aviwe also founded and ran a licensed microfinance company, where she witnessed first-hand how poor financial practices and cycles of debt can affect not only people's finances, but their confidence, relationships and quality of life. Her own financial journey reinforced this lesson. After taking on significant long-term commitments, including a car and two properties, she realised that financial progress on paper does not always translate into financial freedom in real life. She began taking greater control of her finances and discovered the importance of knowledge, healthy financial habits and intentional choices. Aviwe realised she wanted to be part of the solution, not the problem. This became the catalyst for Pretty Moments' transformation from a financial services business into one focused on empowering people to create better lives through financial education, coaching, seminars, retreats and meaningful experiences. Because we believe that with the right knowledge, choices and support, everyone can take meaningful steps towards creating a life they love. We help create pretty lives.
