This milestone didn’t come easy, however – she has had her fair share of challenges but continued to chose to remain resilient. She said the biggest difficulty was maintaining the balance between personal, family, and work-life responsibilities.
“They required me to juggle multiple roles effectively. Managing the demands of innovative projects and collaborations brought its own set of complexities. Amidst these challenges, maintaining a focus on personal well-being and professional growth became crucial. With resilience and a strong support network, I navigated these hurdles, always seeking opportunities, disrupting conventional thinking, and adapting to a rapidly changing environment.”
Mostert advises people to stay curious and never stop learning. She said they should embrace challenges as opportunities for growth, disrupt the status quo, and always speak their truth.

I plan to design new business models that disrupt the status quo, always keeping the principles of truth, kindness, and positive peace at the forefront. Supporting and uplifting women will continue to be a priority as I aim for even greater impact in the years ahead.”
