An Windhoek Observer opinion piece argues that the run of public holidays has become an expensive period due to pressure from family expectations, community habits, and social media to spend on new outfits, travel, gifts and celebrations. The author contends that unnecessary spending during consecutive holidays in March and April, when households are already financially stretched, replaces rest with anxiety rather than making these moments more meaningful.

True well-being depends on leaders removing everyday friction, building psychological safety, and modelling healthy boundaries.
