For most, becoming a parent is a seismic shift, a lifequake that transforms everything we thought we knew about ourselves.
It's a journey that challenges us to re-evaluate our priorities and make some tough decisions. Like how to balance our own dreams with the responsibilities of raising our children?
In 2022, Vicky became a mom for the first time. Two weeks later, her dream to compete at the Olympic Games was reborn.
With a newborn in her arms and just 2 years to prepare for the 2024 Olympic Games, Vicky set out to pursue her passion - not just for herself but to inspire her son.
As a parent, how do we carve out time for self-care without compromising precious moments spent nurturing our children's world? Ultimately, we find ourselves grappling with two powerful - am giving enough and am I enough?
Vicky Botha is an inspiring business owner, triathlete, wife and mother of one who shares how she balances it all.
