I’m Tshepiso Power — a wellness advocate, mother of three, and founder of PowerFit Wellness. My story isn’t polished; it’s real. It’s a journey through loss, pain, and resilience that shaped a mission: to make wellness practical, accessible, and life-giving for women, children, and workplaces that need it most.

My journey began with heartbreak. I lost my father to suicide at just five years old, and ten years later I witnessed my mother’s passing. Those experiences fractured my childhood, leaving invisible wounds I carried into adulthood.

I married young, became a mother, and later faced the pain of divorce. Alongside personal grief, I wrestled with depression and the weight of daily responsibility. I turned to antidepressants, but they only made me feel worse. What I truly needed wasn’t medication alone — it was movement, mindfulness, nourishment, and a chance to care for myself with intention.

As I tried to rebuild, corporate bullying and unfairness eroded my confidence further. I started asking myself: how many others are smiling through burnout, silently battling anxiety, or breaking under the weight of unspoken struggles at work?

That question became my turning point. Wellness couldn’t just be about healing myself — it had to be about helping others reclaim their strength too.
