Perhaps vanity isn’t about looking in the mirror. Perhaps it’s about forgetting to look beyond it. And speaking of looking beyond the mirror, I cannot help thinking about Sonja Basson, a woman who sustained severe burn injuries way back in 1997. Her powerful testimony of God's healing, Friday evening at the 5-week Challenge prize giving event, really touched me …

… While so many of us spend time, money and energy trying to erase the smallest imperfections, Sonja carries scars that tell a story of unimaginable suffering and survival. In those few minutes after her talk, when I had to present the awards to the top 10 Challenge participants, I suddenly felt rather small.

Here we were celebrating centimetres lost, body fat percentages reduced and physical transformations, while Sonja had just reminded us of something infinitely more profound: the miracle of survival, the power of faith and the extraordinary healing that takes place where no mirror can reach.

Last Monday Bernadene and I had a rather interesting conversation while she was touching up my lashes … I confessed that I sometimes think of myself as vain. I make quite a fuss about my appearance, which is rather ironic considering that I spend most of my waking hours in leggings and workout gea...

From “which way are we turning?” to “watch us OWN these moves!” 💃🔥

Weeks of practice, plenty of laughter, and suddenly we’re feeling like professional dancers! Thanks to Jacqui Lengenhager and her amazing choreography, our Cardio Dance crew is bringing the rhythm, the energy and the confidence—and I couldn’t be prouder! ❤️

Every step feels sweeter because we’ve mastered it together. Turn up the music… this is OUR moment! ✨🎶

A little circle. A whole lot of magic! ✨⭕

Our full-body Rhythm Pilates class brings music, movement and the magic circle together—challenging our control, waking up our muscles and making every squeeze count. 💪🎶

There’s something beautiful about women moving together, finding their rhythm and growing stronger—one song, one squeeze, one class at a time. 💛

Ná ’n hele week in die Kaap, met ons harte propvol Nina, Worcester se sonsondergange, ’n kop vol herinneringe en my gedagtes wat holderstebolder agter mekaar aan hardloop, voel dit nodig om vir ’n oomblik stil te word. Om te skryf. Want dis mos wat ek doen wanneer die lewe ’n bietjie te vol raak — ek probeer sin maak van die warboel deur dit in woorde vas te vang.
En hierdie week was daar baie om vas te vang. Baie om oor te glimlag. Baie om voor dankbaar te wees. Baie om oor te dink. En dalk ook ’n klein herinnering dat die lewe nie wag totdat ons gedagtes netjies in ’n ry staan nie.
Soms gebeur alles sommer gelyk.
Donderdag 24 September het ons twee wonderlike jare van ons mooi Nina by die skilderagtige Blaauwklippen gevier. Twee jaar van hierdie klein mensie wat soveel vreugde, liefde en nuwe betekenis in ons lewens kom wakker maak het.
Dit was juis op Erfenisdag dat ek hoor dat Pronutro se jarelange paadjie as deel van ons Suid-Afrikaanse erfenis tot ‘n einde kom. Hoe ironies! Op ‘n dag waarop ons alles vier wat van geslag tot geslag aan ons oorgedra word, word ons daaraan herinner dat selfs die dinge wat ons so vanselfpsrekend aanvaar, nie noodwendig vir altyd bly nie.
Ek wonder of my geliefkoosde Pronturo Proteïnstafies ook in die slag gaan bly. Waarskynlik!

My whole life revolves around people. I teach groups, I organise events, I motivate people and I spend a large part of every day surrounded by others. But recently, a little padel drama made me think of the word TEAM in a completely different way.

I somehow found myself being captain of a padel team, and yes, if my studio members have noticed that I’ve been a little absent from the studio here and there lately, please know that I wasn’t sitting at home on the couch with my feet up! I was somewhere next to a padel court, supporting my team.

Because man, my “Kiss my Ace” Padel team have been amazing. If ever I needed a reminder of what being a team player really looks like, these women have given it to me.

They have supported one another in the most wonderful ways — with Jelly Babies, Energade, loud cheers from the sidelines, hilarious group chats on WhatsApp and, yes, even pom-poms! We may not all have been on the court at the same time, but we were most definitely all in the game. Like the anonymous quote says: “A good team player knows when to lead, when to follow … and when to bring snacks.

Because that is what I have come to realise about a great team: you don’t have to be the one holding the racket to make a difference. Sometimes your job is simply to stand on the other side of the glass and make sure your teammate knows, “You are not out there alone.”

I haven’t always been much of a team player. For most of my younger years, tennis was my sport – just me, my racket and the person on the other side of the net. I was used to playing for myself, relying on myself and, when things went wrong, having nobody else to blame! It […]
