My grandmother used to affirm me every single day. As a chubby dark skinned little girl. She used to tell me how pretty and clever I was unprovoked even into my 30s.
To this day I donโt doubt myself with anything. Affirm little humans. It goes a long way.
My little 23 year old brother has taken a big leap of faith and is opening his coffee and cake shop at Hobart Shopping Centre in Bryanston this Saturday.
They have the best cakes ๐ and coffee and itโs a super cute spot do brunch with friends. Please pop in if you can ๐

Someone randomly sent their CV to the BoT info mailbox & because I want to recruit for that role I looked at her CV. Turns out sheโs better suited for a role a friendโs recruiting for. She has an interview.
Made me realize if something is meant for you your stars will align.
In grade 8 I did an accounting project on Rand Merchant Bank & vowed that Iโd work there one day.
My dream came to life. Today is my last day there & I couldnโt have learned from a better organization over the past 8 years โค๏ธ

I used to mix navy blue N**ea with Vaseline and said if I make a lotion it has to be as rich without the work of mixing. If you struggle with dry skin in winter please try it - you wonโt regret it ๐ค

Sometimes the beauty lies in stopping, looking back and celebrating how far youโve come. Going to be doing a lot more of this from 30-five and fine onwards ๐

My honest review of Bali. I went to Bali in October, honestly driven by all the hype, lush pictures and wanted to see for myself.
Would I go back. No. Hereโs why: [Thread]
