My Story

Although he was born and raised in the Southern Suburbs of Cape Town, it is in the Northern part of the city where the seed of an adventurous life began to bloom in Ethan. It would eventually lead him to a career of coaching small business owners and entrepreneurs on navigating their business adventures.

While attending school, Ethan had little idea of his future, but he was determined to remain optimistic and goal-driven. His upbringing in a single-parent home, all while living below the breadline, left him with little access to external sources of motivation. His father, George, left school in Standard One, with barely any formal education, to help support his mother.

In understanding his lost opportunity, education became a priority to George, and he subsequently instilled the same value in Ethan. Despite these challenges, Ethan adopted his father’s tenacity and realized that giving up was not an option; this attitude fueled this adventure.

In time, with the help of friends Sandra and James, Ethan moved on to complete his schooling career. After that, he focused on developing skills in engineering, thus fulfilling his dream of becoming an Engineering graduate. He attributes his success to the teachings of and values inscribed by his faith, his father, George, and the support of fellow Civil Engineer Duane.

These pillars in his life fostered a certainty of purpose, leading him to establish a network of cutting-edge companies. These companies are Ethan R. Esbach Holdings, E – Squared Tutoring,  Esbach Transport, ERE Consulting Engineers, Thee-Shop, The Keynote, and the ERE Fund. Each company is a derivative of who Ethan is as a person. Ethan is writing a series of books built on the principles of success, which he has learned through the story and the networks he has made.

As a motivational speaker, Ethan embraces that knowledge gained must be shared with one’s community. By sharing hard-earned information, he hopes to impact the lives of others and guide them in finding their purpose. Ethan is working to develop knowledge-sharing platforms and resources for those keen on personal and professional growth while fulfilling individual and societal goals.
