They told us: Work hard. Climb the ladder. Be competative. Chase success. So we did. Then in April 2023, I retired at 56 and realised the race was optional. Retirement is not about stopping, it’s about choosing your pace, choosing your projects, choosing your people & choosing your time. I don’t wake up at 3am anymore. I don’t sit in traffic. I don’t apologise for resting. I don’t compete. I set the pace. I turn 60 in 246 days and this is the freest I’ve ever been. #Countdownto60 #AntiFragile #DesignYourLife

Doing final rounds before heading back to the city of work🙏🏾🚜 Farming is no easy exercise bantabam. It requires faith in God, trust in people, and wisdom with money. However, I will say, in the end, it is a fulfilling and rewarding exercise❤️👌🏾

It was a cold, rainy morning, so I went to encourage and say goodbye to students that took the earliest shuttles to campus❤️ I went with over 100 chocolates and to my surprise, the shuttles were full I even ran out of chocolates! UCT students braved the weather and went to study!

I’m grateful that at 57, I’m still flexible enough to pull off my favourite yoga move♥️ I ensure that I take a holistic 360-degree approach when it comes to maintaining my body for both physical and mental well-being. Remember, your health is your true wealth!🫶🏾♥️
