Whether you’re aiming to break into TV, become an influencer or take your career to the next level, the iconic star gives no-nonsense advice that offers the tools, strategies, and motivation to succeed in show business.
An instant fan-favourite on The Mommy Club, Mrs Mops began her career as a skilled actress, honing her craft at film school before landing roles on hit South African shows like The River and Adulting.
But it was her leap into reality TV that catapulted her into stardom, making her a household name.

Her magnetic presence and undeniable charisma captured the hearts of viewers, and her role in The Mommy Club solidified her status as one of the top entertainment figures in the country.

Drawing from her years of industry experience, she offers a step-by-step guide to reaching the top and staying there.

Mrs Mops firmly believes that to gain traction in the industry, you must surround yourself with a team that will help you reach your goals. "From PR professionals to agents and makeup stylists, everyone you work with has the power to shape your career - for better or worse.”
The business mogul also shares her insights on the power of consistency in social media. “To grow your presence, you need to be consistent. Post every day – that’s the smarter way to grow your audience.”
In her Showmax masterclass, Mrs Mops also highlights the importance of authenticity in reality TV. “We want someone who is authentically themselves. There are 8 billion people in the world, and every one is unique,” she says. “When I first got into the reality TV space, I made the mistake of not being true to myself and boy oh boy, was I called out and the mask fell off.
