Pain, loss and uncertainty can disconnect us from ourselves, from others and from the life still unfolding around us.
Gabi reframes courage not as fearlessness, but as the conscious choice to face reality, allow vulnerability and keep moving toward what matters.
Advocacy as an active practise. Using conscious choice and connection to prevail when certainty and control fall away.
Resilience as a practice; a learnt capacity versus a personality trait; that can be built through awareness, relationship, practice and agency.
How meaning, connection, and humanity can endure even in the face of unspeakable loss, pain and uncertainty.
Gabi Lowe is a South African keynote speaker, professional life and leadership coach, bestselling author and medical advocate whose work explores courage, authentic resilience and what it means to remain present and connected when life changes everything. Her authority is grounded in both professional expertise and profound lived experience. Following her daughter Jenna’s diagnosis with a rare, life-threatening illness, Gabi and her family embarked on an extraordinary journey through medical uncertainty, advocacy, love and loss. Together, they helped launch the #GetMeTo21 campaign, which increased organ donor registrations in South Africa by 287%. After Jenna’s death in 2015, Gabi co-founded the Jenna Lowe Trust to continue her legacy and advance awareness, access and support for patients affected by pulmonary hypertension and rare disease. Today, Gabi translates these hard-earned lessons into powerful keynotes, coaching and facilitated experiences. She teaches that courage is not fearlessness, and resilience is not emotional armour, but a learnable capacity built through awareness, vulnerability, connection and conscious choice. Gabi is the founder of The Coaching Nest and co-founder of The Resilience Factory. Her bestselling memoir, *Get Me to 21*, became the foundation for the award-winning documentary *Get Me to 21: The Jenna Lowe Story*. Through her work, Gabi helps people live and lead with greater courage, humanity and authentic resilience.
