From Extreme Adversity to Unstoppable Achievement
Born in Namibia, raised in South Africa, and having lived in the Netherlands before settling in Scotland, I know what it means to start over. I’ve faced homelessness, battled addiction, and overcome burnout—but those challenges didn’t define me. The choices I made did.
“Where you are right now doesn’t define you. The choices you make in the next five minutes will determine where you’ll be in the next five years.”
I went from homeless waitress to award-winning publisher, organising major business events, coaching entrepreneurs, and publishing my book Break Those Damn Rules—a guide to breaking through limiting beliefs and embracing growth.
