Hi, I’m Natascha – a proud mom of two amazing young adults, a daughter of 21 and a son of 19. My journey into wellness began in a life-changing way when I was diagnosed with cancer at just 27. Over the years, this path has evolved into a spiritual and holistic exploration, embracing both traditional and modern wellness modalities. Moving from Johannesburg to Amanzimtoti has been the fulfilment of a lifelong dream – to live by the coast, focus on what truly matters, and embrace new adventures. The recent loss of my brother, dad, and mom has been a profound reminder of the importance of living fully and intentionally. As Robin Sharma says, “Don’t live the same year 75 times and call it a life,” and as Mel Robson reminds us, true wellness is a journey of self-discovery, balance, and courage to follow your heart. I’m here to share that journey and help others discover the joy of living well, mindfully, and passionately.
I bring with me two passionate ventures that reflect my journey and vision for wellness, growth, and community. Evolve is about the personal evolution we all need – a space to rediscover ourselves, grow, and become better parents, friends, and lovers to our loved ones and to life itself. As Mahatma Gandhi said, “Be the change you wish to see in the world,” and at Evolve, we guide and support that transformation.
My second venture, PopUp, is all about community. From arts, crafts, and cooking to workshops and guest speakers, PopUp offers diverse, unmapped experiences designed to connect people and spark new ideas. I believe in the revival of Amanzimtoti – whatever your age or interest, PopUp is a space for exploration, connection, and creativity. Our venue also provides practitioners of all disciplines the opportunity to host courses and events, making Pop-up a hub for new communities and new experiences. Together, Evolve and Pop-up reflect my mission: to inspire growth, connection, and meaningful experiences in every aspect of life.
