Born in Durban, South Africa, Erica had a few twists in her tale: finishing her music degree after school and ending up as an operations management consultant. It was in trying to understand the resistance to organizational change that led her to a path of unpacking human behavior. During this time, she discovered her passion for developing conscious change leadership skills to empower leaders to empower change. Realizing that the resistance to change has its roots in our younger years, it moved her to start writing books to empower children and help them to understand their own behavior.
