About Victor Mhangwana

Victor is the creator of the Passion-First Lifestyle series—a powerful framework for personal transformation rooted in one unshakable belief: passion is not a luxury, it is a human imperative. With over two decades of experience spanning priesthood, corporate leadership, and personal development, Victor helps individuals rediscover their inner fire and build lives that are not only adaptive and successful—but deeply meaningful.

His journey began as a Catholic priest in rural South Africa, where he offered spiritual guidance to communities burdened by poverty. Disillusioned by how little faith alone could do to shift material realities, Victor left the priesthood—not from a crisis of belief, but from a deeper calling: to awaken human potential beyond religious identity alone.

In the private sector, he thrived in roles ranging from tech sales at IBM to COO in the automotive fleet industry. But whether growing revenue or mentoring talent, one thread remained constant: his passion for helping people grow into who they were meant to become.

Today, Victor’s work speaks directly to those navigating the uncertainty of the AI era. He envisions a bold new identity for humanity—Homo Aspirare—where our worth is defined not by outdated economic roles, but by aspiration, creativity, and passion. His books, courses, keynotes, and retreats guide individuals to find, grow, and follow their passion in a rapidly changing world.

Victor invites you to join a movement where human potential is no longer wasted, but awakened.
