While she is closing down her skincare store, the reality TV star and fitness bunny told TshisaLIVE that she decided to expand her brand and move into fitness.

"Patience, my biggest lessons in business were about delegation and staying small enough to reach the next level. Many people seek instant growth, which is admirable, but without the right structure, success is unlikely. I realised my passion for skincare wasn't as strong as my love for fitness.
"Now, I've found my purpose and am focusing on sports nutrition. Additionally, I’ve taken up golf, which teaches patience- a trait I want to incorporate into my business. Ultimately, I hope to develop feeding programs within my nutrition enterprise to support underprivileged communities," she said.
