In this entertaining, yet moving keynote, Devi tells the story of how a young girl, growing up in rural KZN during the turbulent 80’s, made the unusual decision to become a journalist.

Fast-forward to 2020 – Devi resigns from Carte Blanche and takes on a new television adventure … in the midst of a global pandemic! This keynote gives insight into why agility and resilience can take you places … and gain you millions of viewers in just six months!
The Day I Chose Me!
Ten years ago, Devi received news that she was pre-hypertensive. Hardly surprising when this award-winning investigative television journalist also doubled up as a wife and mother to two children (one a Junior Golf Olympian and the other, an international debater). The news set in motion a series of events …. false starts and stops……an unexpected meeting with Huffington Post founder, Ariana Huffington and it all culminated in a blog which went viral – much to Devi’s surprise.
In this hilarious, yet touching talk, Devi talks about her constant fight with finding “balance” and how she has learnt to finally put herself on top of her list.
