Natalie Dumont de Chassart

Natalie is a free-spirit and philosophical thinker. Zimbabwean at her core, and a lover of the outdoors, she wrote From Dust as an ode to expansion through loss and grief – collectively and at an interpersonal level. Natalie believes healing begins with looking inwards to find empathy and authenticity amongst systems and societal beliefs that govern all the ‘shoulds’ and ‘should nots’ in the world.

Natalie was born and raised on a farm in Zimbabwe, she studied BA Law at UCT and specialised in Sustainability as part of her MA in Corporate Communication in London. After 6 years of living in the UK, she moved back to her African roots and works as a consultant, writer and artist living between Cape Town and Zimbabwe.
