Supporting Individuals to Rise
Through workshops, mentoring, coaching, and community, we help individuals uncover their strengths and create lasting change for themselves and their families.
Hi, I'm Kamala
Founder’s story
Finding Your Gold was born during a challenging period in my life. I have always had a natural desire to help others and a deep interest in counselling and psychology.
Through my own experiences, I came to believe that every person has something precious within them—their own unique strengths, potential, and purpose. We call this our gold. Like mining for gold, discovering it isn't easy. It takes the right tools, guidance, and support, regardless of where we begin. I wanted to build a service that would help people with this.
My journey began by voluntarily coaching and mentoring, whilst utilising my professional background in accounting to develop and deliver financial literacy workshops.
I am passionate about ensuring that financial and mental health literacy is easily accessible within the education system and beyond.
This, combined with my lived experience, inspired me to develop tailored workshops such as budgeting, healthy relationships, self-employment, and other essential life skills.
Having lived independently from a young age, I know how beneficial a service like this would have been for my peers and me—especially during our school years.
My mission is to empower communities through the Finding Your Gold framework—tailored workshops, coaching, and mentoring—to build accessible programs that help specific groups thrive.
Supporting others to break generational patterns and cycles is at the heart of what we do. I believe the gold we uncover also comes from the pain we learn to alchemise through deep, personal transformation.
Ultimately, the FYG mission is to empower individuals to overcome adversity by equipping them with the practical tools and support needed to build resilience and realise their full potential.
We are a community organisation that supports individuals in overcoming adversity and becoming financially, emotionally, and mentally secure, whilst working toward a purpose-driven life.
