decisions I’ve made.”<br />
She described them as a typical <strong>South</strong><br />
African family who are often found at<br />
home having braais and spending time<br />
with family.<br />
“Prior to Covid-19, our family enjoyed<br />
spending weekends away at local destinations.<br />
Our boys love going to Sun City.”<br />
Apart from being a force to be reckoned<br />
with in court, she also has a creative<br />
side and said she was born into a creative<br />
family.<br />
“Their creativeness must have rubbed<br />
off on me. I love doing anything that<br />
involves using my hands, a glue gun and<br />
a couple glue sticks.<br />
“My latest creative designs include extravagant<br />
nappy cakes which started of<br />
as a hobby and gifting for baby showers<br />
and then turned into a small-time business<br />
which I didn’t expect.<br />
“I also enjoy making candles, especially<br />
unique unity candles for weddings, and<br />
I am extremely fond of making fancy<br />
desserts.”<br />
Challenges in life and in business<br />
“I always welcome challenges because<br />
through pain comes purpose.<br />
I’ve realised every challenge I faced<br />
in life took me out of my comfort<br />
zone and when one is taken out of<br />
their comfort zone it means growth<br />
is being experienced.<br />
“Don’t run from a challenge, rather<br />
embrace it. David didn’t run away<br />
from Goliath. He took up the challenge<br />
and defeated the giant, knowing<br />
his help came from above.”<br />

QUICK FACTS<br />
• Who is your hero?<br />
Without a doubt in my mind, it is my<br />
precious mother, my superwoman.<br />
• Who inspires you?<br />
Anyone who has been able to overcome<br />
major obstacles in their life<br />
and who has come out victorious.<br />
• Your ultimate spoil?<br />
Being a mom of two toddler boys.<br />
However, the ultimate spoil right<br />
now would just be an extra hour of<br />
sleep in the morning and the<br />
cherry on the top would be a day<br />
at the spa.<br />
• Your guilty pleasure?<br />
I’m an attorney, we never admit to<br />
any form of guilt (LOL). I reserve my<br />
right to answer this question.<br />
