Rolene Strauss on turning 30

Miss World 2014, Rolene Strauss turns 30 today and with that comes a lot of reflection.

She’s reached various heights in her life – Miss World being one of them – and as she looks back, the coach, speaker, author, mom and wife says it’s been 30 years of “learning, unlearning, growing and moving forward.”

She has been reflecting on her life since the day before yesterday, sharing posts on Instagram, including lessons learnt.

Managing her income was one of the biggest lessons Rolene says she has learned over the years, with her husband playing an integral part in the process of her becoming money-wise.

“Since childhood, money has been a relatively taboo topic,” she writes.

“With Daniel Strauss as my mentor, money became an unemotional, it-is-what-it-is thing to talk and think about.”
