Rachel Kolisi pulled back the curtain on the "perfect" lifestyle often portrayed on social media, offering a raw look at the reality of juggling a demanding career with the demands of family life.

In a candid reflection on 8 February 2026, the businesswoman and mother of two admitted that while balancing work and home is a constant and often "messy" challenge, her priority is simply showing up with intention.

"Some days, it’s messy. Every day, I show up and do my best."

She revealed that she is juggling multiple projects at once, including building a business, writing a book, planning several events and finalising her documentary, Falling Forward.

With her documentary scheduled to screen in March 2026, coinciding with the release of her book, Rachel expressed gratitude to her supporters for holding her down as she navigates one of her biggest projects to date.

"I can’t tell you how grateful I am for all the support. I am BEYOND excited for those nights together!"
