Back from 8-week Bali lockdown with lessons - Dr Mariheca Otto

Dr Mariheca Otto, who was stuck in Bali when all flights to South Africa were cancelled due to the Covid-19 lockdown, has after 8 weeks been repatriated. She will remain in isolation for 14 days before she can return to her four children in Cape Town. Dr Otto spoke toLinda van Tilburg about the lessons she learnt, in both business and her personal life. One particular lesson came from being part of a social media group of South Africans in Indonesia, which made her realise how important it is to avoid what she called, ‘the haters’.
