Here, we ask the tough questions.
You’ve got a free half hour during your work day. What do you do?
Get some laundry done or sit and read a magazine.
What’s your proudest moment?
The best feedback I have had was when I was working on my market stall two months after launching my business online, and I heard someone say 'oh I read about this lady in the paper'. Even though they did not stop to look at my range, I really didn’t think the little article written about me in my local paper would have been read by anyone other than my family and friends.
What’s the one resource you’d never be without?
My iPhone. Running two businesses (or three if you include my hubby's business too), and being a mum, you need to check emails and reply from anywhere!
What’s the best thing about being a soloist? And the worst thing?
The best thing is I do everything my way! The worst thing is I don’t get to chat while working.
What’s one habit you’d like to change?
Checking Facebook, emails, Twitter too many times a day.
What do you wear to work?
Witjuti Bamboo Loungewear of course!
If you could pick anyone to be your personal assistant, who would it be and why?
It would be Diana Holwerda from PA on the Go. She is also my business partner for my other business Mum Entrepreneurs. We have been working together for one and a half years in business and she just gets me. She always thinks of the things I don’t and visa versa!
And now comes the plug!
What do you do? Who for? And how does it benefit them?
I have a range of bamboo clothing designed for yoga, travel, maternity or just lounging around. The range is currently just for women, but soon to be for men too! Being made from a bamboo viscose/rayon the fabric feels like silk, and all the designs are catered to be worn at home or out and about. Ideally designed for mums or people working at home wanting comfort but without looking like you are wearing your pjs.
