She lost her mother at age of 12, and this is when she realised that she had to grow up and learn to take care of herself.

From the beginning Motsei says she knew that she belonged somewhere where she could express herself openly. For a while Motsei freelanced in the local film and television industry, working as a camera assistant before she was given an opportunity to direct and shoot a pilot for SABC1 under the guidance of the Soul City producers.

She then started assisting in directing music videos and television productions, after which she landed a director's job with Top Billing. Her work on Top Billing saw her directing, presenting and researching prominent South Africans. She majored in International Journalism at the University of Westminster. It ran for two successful seasons.

Motsei is planning to use her skills to develop her own branding and communication business in the future. Being away from home also carries a lot of guilt. Struggling for work as a foreigner in a country battling with its own internal politics is not for the faint hearted.
