In this episode, we speak with Her Excellency Rebecca Nyandeng De Mabior, the Vice President for the Gender and Youth Cluster in South Sudan. The interview covers a wide range of topics related to South Sudan's independence, the struggles and challenges faced by the country, the role of women and youth, and the vision for the future.
Rebecca reflects on the 13 years since South Sudan's independence in 2011, expressing both joy and disappointment. While the achievement of independence was a historic moment, she acknowledges that the country has not lived up to the expectations of the liberation struggle. She emphasises the need for leaders to reeducate themselves to the ideals they fought for, and to prioritise the development and freedom of the South Sudanese people.
The interview delves into Rebecca's personal life and her determination to remain strong and support the people of South Sudan during a difficult time. She discusses her role as the Vice President for the Gender and Youth Cluster, highlighting the importance of empowering women and youth in the country. Rebecca stresses the need for young people to be given opportunities to contribute to the nation's development and for women to be represented in leadership positions. The conversation also touches on the revitalised peace agreement signed in 2018, with Rebecca expressing disappointment at the lack of political will and implementation of the agreement. She dismisses the notion that ethnic divisions are the root cause of the disagreements, instead attributing them to selfishness and a lack of commitment to the people of South Sudan.
Throughout the interview, Rebecca emphasises her wish for a peaceful, crime-free, and gender-equal South Sudan, where the younger generations can inherit a better future. She expresses her desire to leave a positive legacy and to see the country achieve the ideals for which so many sacrificed their lives during the liberation struggle.

In this episode, I have a conversation with South African writer Barbara Adair about the book Crooked Seeds from Karen Jennings. This book is published by Karavan Press in 2024.
I share with you how I know Barbara and how we decided we were going to have a conversation about this book.
Karen Jennings was long listed for the Booker Prize in 2021 for her book An Island. Barbara shares with us the story of how she knows about this writer and why she wanted to have a conversation with me about this story.
Crooked Seeds is about a woman who is stuck, and as I just had read Prophet Song by Paul Lynch (he won the Booker Prize in 2023 with this book), I hesitated to talk about another book that has a main character who is stuck. And yes, this book is hard to read if you look at the story and characters as if they are real people. Yet in our conversation, Barbara explains a different way of reading this story which helped me understand the story in another way.
I am from the Netherlands and I have sometimes specific ways of reading, looking at books and stories, and in this conversation I mention a few of those. For example, my starting point is often to look at the story from the perspective I learned from a Dutch author I read many years ago. This author is Jos VandeLoo. I translated and shared his view on literature as follows: "Literature must make people think. The people have to become participants of the story, they have to take a side, make a judgement call. They have to do something!"

SB Coetzee gesels oor die toekoms van sekere chemiese plaagbeheer klasse en die alternatiewe vir die boer. AECI Plant Health Website
A pangolin is poached from the wild every five minutes. It's reached a tipping point and if we don’t act now, they could disappear in our lifetime. So little is known about this enchanting, solitary mammal covered in scales, yet they’ve quickly become the world’s most trafficked mammal.
The IUCN lists the four Asian species as critically endangered, while the four African species, endangered. All face extinction because of the illegal trade – poached for their scales for Asian medicine; or bush meat in Africa; or a delicacy in Asia. Electrocution (fences) and habitat loss also contribute to the decline.
Not many people have seen a pangolin in the wild (let alone spent 365 days with one, like our guest has).
Singita Sabi Sand Field Guide, Lucy Stofberg, chats to Donald Davis (Programme Coordinator at Pangolin.Africa) about a species in crisis. What makes pangolins special, why they're facing extinction, and how we can help? Donald's work is crucial. From rehabilitating pangolins in their natural habitat, to a swift return to the wild. He also deals with pangolins rescued from poachers. The NGO is working to create a pangolin-safe fence, and runs a telephone alert system (Pangolert).
Singita, and other ecotourism operators, have teamed up with Pangolin.Africa to make the 15-minute Pangolin Guardian course available to any staff. Whether you’re a blogger, lodge owner, ranger, teacher, or CEO there are many ways you can get involved. Educating young children is key to saving pangolins.
When you donate you help rescue and rehab efforts, ensuring that pangolins are treated, and released. That’s what “teaming up to save a species’’ means.

Getting a Grip on Cancer and Positivity.
“This book is an honest recollection of my childhood - the good and not so good. Some of the stories I share, not even my husband or my children knew about, and they struggled to read past it. I have hidden it for so long, as I was scared and ashamed. Alcoholism, poverty, hardships, violence, unforgiveness, but now that I have dealt with it, forgiven them, and forgiven myself for not feeling good enough, I am set free. It further focuses on my cancer journey. My life is now literally an open book.”
Since 2019, age 48, diagnosed with Breast Cancer, Stage 3, 5 years later, Lindie is into her 6th fight against the dreaded disease.
“The power of knowledge is crucial in the fight against cancer I had to take control of cancer, and not to be fear driven. Faith over fear."
“You never know how strong you are, till being strong is your only option!”

Not everything is as it seems. A journey from pain to purpose.
In this episode of the Conscious LeadHERS podcast, hosted by The Carmen Murray Show, we sit down with Michelle Israel, an NLP coach and well-being and mental health expert who also serves on the Conscious LeadHERS advisory board, to uncover her powerful story. This interview marks the first time someone is sharing their story on the podcast without prior knowledge of the details, emphasising the profound message that everyone has a story, and often, the battles they fight are unknown to the outside world.
Michelle begins by sharing her background, growing up in a wealthy family until her father's untimely death when she was just four. Her life took a dramatic turn with her mother's remarriage, bringing domestic violence, molestation, and a challenging environment. Despite these hardships, Michelle's resilience shines through as she recounts her journey of leaving home at 16 to escape the violence, living in a caravan, and eventually suing her mother for mismanagement of her inheritance.
Michelle reflects on the deep emotional scars left by her childhood and the process of healing through NLP coaching and ayahuasca ceremonies. She speaks candidly about her struggles with anxiety, her determination to break the cycle of abuse, and her journey towards self-acceptance and forgiveness.
Michelle's story is a testament to the power of resilience and the importance of inner work. She highlights the necessity of surrounding oneself with supportive people, the continuous effort required for personal growth, and the profound transformation that can occur when one decides to heal and reclaim their life.
Join us as Michelle Israel shares her inspiring journey, offering hope and encouragement to those facing their own battles. Her story is a powerful reminder that despite the challenges we face, we have the strength to overcome and create a better future for ourselves.

A challenging read that proved to be fun!
In this episode I share with you what I discussed with a few people who joined the book club evening @Saint Germain, 44 Stanley, Johannesburg on the 9th of May, this year. We read If on a winter's night a traveler, published in 1979 by Italo Calvino. I thought it would be a challenging read, but I actually found myself having so much fun with the book. I am a fan of Roland Barthes essay 'The death of the author" and while I read this book I thought this is either a play, or a critique or a tribute to Roland Barthes. Via questions and a categorisation assignment we talk about this book. I guide the participants through a word play activity to find 'a' meaning, my meaning, of this book. I share a passage from the book that I believe 'proofs' this play. We kept talking about the book, even when we lost all lights and our host Nikki brings us candles, so we can continue despite a huge power outage. In the dark we talk about reading aloud to someone else. I have just read in the book Papyrus by Vallejo that when the alphabet was invented, we read aloud for many, many years before someone invented silent reading. Nowadays podcasts and audiobooks have become a normal go to for many people. I wonder has the reader died and has the listener been reborn?
Everyone in the small group acknowledges that they rather read a book because it gives the possibility to underline sentences or passages, yet, we also wonder are we becoming lonely travelers? I end the conversation with presenting a novel in German: Der Vorleser. This book was translated in many languages and in English it is called The reader. The famous movie with Kate Winslet and David Kross is well known. We talk about the difference in meaning between the reader and der Vorleser. We were with only four, yet we felt inspired and heard by each other, even in the dark.

Hello listener, welcome to my podcast series: The Story explorer.
I am a reader who has the need to talk with others about what I’ve read. I have started and joined many book clubs. I now run one in a little café in Johannesburg. You are all welcome to join. But because time is sparse for many of us and Johannesburg is not within travelling distance for many readers I am taking up the challenge to talk about books in a podcast. I believe a story always is embedded in something else. This will be the starting point of this podcast journey. I want to look at what is around the story; what is the location? Who are the characters? What is it that happens in the story? What does it do within me, the reader? What do I think the author wants to say? What does this story make me think about? These are questions I want to explore with books that I think are important and we all should read and talk about.

The conversation delves into the significance of spirituality, interconnectedness, and collective intelligence in both personal and professional growth. Athi’s story is a testament to the power of transforming pain into purpose and serves as a beacon of hope for others facing similar struggles and then developing a purposeful career supporting women in business.
This episode not only highlights Athi's remarkable resilience, but also underscores the essential role of spiritual intelligence and cultural intelligence in shaping a fortified future. Through her journey, listeners are encouraged to embrace their identities and find strength in their roots to overcome adversity and achieve personal growth. website · podcast studio

Why trade unions are worried about electricity market reforms.
In this episode, Trevor Shaku, the national spokesperson of the South African Federation of Trade Unions (SAFTU), talks to host Alex Lenferna about the major electricity market reforms underway in South Africa. The discussion revolves around South Africa's electricity future and the government's proposals for reforming the electricity sector, such as unbundling and the Electricity Regulation Amendment Bill.
Trevor Shaku explains SAFTU's opposition to the privatisation of the electricity sector and the unbundling of Eskom, the state-owned electricity utility. He argues that privatisation will lead to higher electricity prices, making it unaffordable for the majority of South Africans, and will prioritise profit over public interest. SAFTU advocates for a 'public pathway' approach, where Eskom remains the primary producer and provider of electricity, with a focus on transitioning to renewable energy sources through a 'Green New Eskom' initiative.
Trevor highlights the risks of the government's plans, including the potential for private companies to demand guarantees and risk mitigation measures, effectively transferring risks to the government. He also criticises the Electricity Regulation Amendment Bill as a legal framework for privatisation and liberalisation of the energy markets.
The discussion touches on the international context, with Trevor expressing concerns about the influence of institutions like the IMF and World Bank in pushing for privatisation and the role of the Just Energy Transition Partnerships. He emphasises the need for a global movement of trade unions to resist the privatisation of energy provision and advocate for a just transition that prioritises public ownership and workers' interests.

We are told "it takes two to be a slave".
I will share with you what the book club evening was like in a little cafe in Johannesburg, early 2024. On this specific evening I discussed the book Homegoing, written by Yaa Gyasi in 2016. This book is her debut. She won National Book Critics Circle's John Leonard Prize for Best First book with Homegoing. She was only 26 when she won this prize. I prepared questions to discuss with people who also had read the book. My intention with this book club is to hear what other people have to say in answer to questions I have with regards to the book. This episode is about the main theme of this book which is the effects of slavery on the lives of many African people. The outlook of this book brought me to a history of slavery: Born in Blackness by Howard W. French, Black American artist Kara Walker and a song titled come home, come home - bra fie by Fuse ODG. The group consisted of mainly white people, but was at last joined by an African American man, who joined the conversation with meaningful words.

Settler colonialism in urban and rural landscapes in Africa has not only meant dispossession of land; it is also an ongoing system of power-use that has sought to homogenise, sterilise and decontextualise space and place. This linear way of thinking perpetuates the repression and genocide of peoples, and the exploitation of cultures, land and resources. It continues to alienate non-White people from their genealogical relations with nature and the non-visible world. While many African countries have enjoyed independence for decades, the quest for development, urbanisation, modernisation and globalisation has sustained and reproduced spatial inequality and exclusion for the majority of poor non-Whites. Decolonisation as a project has been undertaken in various ways by different actors, yet a modernist approach in urban and rural architectural design persists. It is rooted in the dominant culture, in the decontextualisation of people, space and time, undermining issues related to eco-diversity, transitional justice, restoration and diversity. This situation deeply reinforces hopelessness, fearfulness, a sense of scarcity and displacement, and an inability to imagine future cities where everyone belongs.
In this conversation, we’ll reflect on our past and our hopes for a decolonised future, imagining future urban and rural places and spaces that are resilient, anticipatory, inclusive, autonomous and technologically disruptive. Visit our website · Follow on Instagram · YouTube Channel · Patreon

Knowing what to do in the face of disruptive change.
Welcome to The TomorrowToday Podcast, where your hosts Buhle Dlamini and Graeme Codrington will be mapping the future of business. That might sound like a bold claim - but that’s what they do as futurists.
Futurists don't predict the future - they're not fortune tellers. As futurists and strategy consultants we’ve made it our job to understand change and how to adapt effectively. The reason we’re starting this podcast is because we believe that leaders, entrepreneurs, and executives need to think differently about how they lead into the future. And that's what we're here to help with.
We'll be discussing how business leaders need to go beyond what they currently know in order to ensure their success in the face of extremely disruptive change. We'll be sharing resources, frameworks for your teams, and ideas for you to implement with your own teams and organisations right away.
If you listened to this episode and want to learn more about how your business can become bionic, anti-fragile, and a force for good in the world, we’d love to connect with you. Our team at TomorrowToday have spent over 20 years developing both a picture of what the future of work is going to look like, and frameworks of the key characteristics that future-fit organisations need in order to be successful. We’d love to help you with this.

Lynn joins Fiona Snyckers and Gail Schimmel to talk about how she came to write a feminist reimagining of the antisemitic Medieval myth of the Wandering Jew.
Describing antisemitism as a 'light sleeper', Lynn talks about how this myth was reverse engineered into scripture centuries afterwards.
Lynn describes how losing her sister to cancer plunged her into a state of deep grief and how she is only now able to find her writing voice again.

Michaelhouse was described by AM Barrett, in a previous history, as once amounting to a ‘handful of boys on a dusty street in a small town’, a far cry from the magnificent 680-hectare site in Balgowan with a world-class programme and facilities that constitutes the School of today.
And nobody is better placed to characterise that journey, the transformation of Michaelhouse into a great school with a rich heritage, than Gary Ralfe: Senior Prefect of 1962, Old Boy of stellar academic capability, Cambridge graduate and captain of indus- try, Chairman of the Michaelhouse Board from 2008 to 2016 and benefactor – indeed, a man who has had a profound influence in shaping the modern Michaelhouse.
Through his extensive research, insight and instinctive love for Michaelhouse, the deep friendships and the unique contributions of many and the triumphs and difficulties of the past 125 years have been made accessible. The crafting of this book, the clarity of its structure and a story so beautifully told has been an immense labour of love.
Old Boys and all who cherish Michaelhouse are profoundly grateful to the author, as the book evokes a sense of pride in all who have walked its cloisters, quads and fields. In Stars of the Morning he has rekindled a sense of the School’s Christian heritage and the fulfilment of the intentions of the founder, James Cameron Todd. It makes compelling reading.

Eddie the Elephant is a confident little chap. In the beginning of the story, we discover that the animals want him off the bus due to his size but he perseveres through the bullying and keeps on keeping on. When the bus breaks down (adverse circumstance beyond his control) he makes the best of a bad situation and shows the others a proactive stance that never occurred to them, thereby setting a good example of grit. Initially, when the motor breaks down, they are unhelpful and complain, leaving Eddie to do the work; but when another unforeseeable event occurs (the pothole in the road), Eddie suggests that they help him and they do so, showing a good example of leadership and team work. As a result of Eddie's good example, they get the bus moving and get to school on time (the triumph) and express their gratitude, thereby further reinforcing Eddie’s resilient behaviour. Eddie is the hero of the hour but the group has also benefited from his gritty largesse. Listen to more Tales of Africa and hear more charming stories based o the United Nations Rights of the Child.

Employer Brand - is there a more important strategic imperative in 2024?
In this episode Rebecca Price, strategy partner, co-founder and co-owner of Frank Bright & Abel, a creative communications consultancy, that specialises in B2B and works extensively across the legal sector, talks to co-hosts Rob Otty and Jonathan Otty about the importance of getting your Employer Brand right. Employer Brand has never been more important - done right, it provides a huge advantage in your recruitment and retention of the best talent and in delivering commercial success. Employer brand is not a "soft" issue - indeed there can be no more "hard" strategic issue for companies and law firms to get right. As the pace of change gets ever faster, and as generational differences become an increasing feature within organisations, a well defined Employer Brand creates both strategic advantage and the institutional "glue" that allows your business to adapt, flex and continue to succeed.
Rebecca shares her years of experience and learnings from multiple sectors, with a special focus on the legal sector. This episode is a must-listen for not only leaders, but all partners and team members who have an interest ensuring the success of their firm. It is the second in a two part conversation with Rebecca and reinforces the important link between external brand, which was covered in the previous episode, and Employer Brand. Strategic advice and guidance of the highest calibre from a leader in her field.

Ever wonder how Singita transforms Tanzanian nature lovers into the polished, knowledgeable guides leading their exceptional game drives?
Ross Couper (Singita's resident photographer and former guide), sits down with Grant Telfer, the (Head of Singita's Guide Training in Tanzania), to get the recipe. From a Singita field guide in South Africa, Grant’s compass pointed him north to become a lodge manager in Grumeti in 2013. A 6-month stint helping out with guide training led to a 10-year career managing guide training.
When Singita puts out a call for new recruits, they're flooded with hundreds of eager applicants. But it takes more than knowledge to make the cut - Singita's looking for natural communicators with a passion for the wilderness. These lucky locals then embark on an 18-month training programme covering tracking, driving, interpretation and communication.
The result? A team of phenomenal, confident guides who bring the Serengeti to life in a way that enchants Singita's guests - whether it's their first safari or the twentieth. Grant, who's developed over 150 guides in his 10 years, is clearly passionate about providing life-changing opportunities and creating the best guided experiences possible.
Ross and Grant also share their most memorable sightings in this incredible 350,000-acre reserve (protected by the NGO, Grumeti Fund) from dazzling herds of zebra to mongoose ambushing cheetah.
Looks like Singita knows how to spot safari superstars, along with lions, leopards, and Mara River crossings!

Agriculture worldwide is under pressure to reduce pesticide and fertilizer usage whilst increasing crop yields to feed a growing world population. There is now a move away from the total reliance on traditional chemicals and synthetic fertilizers towards a more responsible and sustainable approach of cultivating crops that protects the environment and its precious resources.
Our approach is to work hand in hand with the farmer to systematically address each point of influence in the growing of crops in a sustainable and responsible manner. Many of the tools and techniques simply unlock nature’s potential and the genetic potential of the crop. Stephen Downey | LinkedIn · AECI Plant Health Website

Societies across the globe are built on a dominant culture – an oppressive, violent, hurtful, exploitative and destructive fear-based culture that thrives on inequalities in terms of gender, race, class and income. Dominance as a cultural construct has for centuries had a strong presence in institutions, influencing the socio-political agenda and landscape of societies. Fear as a concept, especially in relation to its opposite – love, is one of the most important and under-researched concepts of our time. Love is said to be a pattern that is life giving, regenerative, healthy and emancipatory, and fear is said to be a pattern of death, degeneration, dis-ease and enslavement. Fear-based conditioning is created when a person is hurt and does not heal that hurt, causing a disassociation from love. It’s a cause of great trauma. Fear is a dominant symptom in non-self-regulating, hurting and violent societies that have been subject to oppression and domination. In turn, like a virus, this fear infects the ideologies, myths, beliefs, values and socio-cultural context of societies. Fear and love are directly related, and so are fearlessness and liberation.

Cognitive Dissonance, Hubris, Scepticism and other blockers to change.
Join us as we explore the concept of cognitive dissonance within the legal industry, where firms recognise the need for change but remain rooted in traditional practices and the billable hour model.
We discuss the tension between understanding the need to adapt and being entrenched in models that have historically guaranteed profitability, drawing parallels with the case of Kodak's failure to capitalise on digital innovation.
We look at the underlying commercial unit of measurement that constrains law firms, the internal barriers to change, how the legal sector is a vast ecosystem of vested interests that mean now, more than ever, law firm managers need to carefully review the advice they are receiving, and how law firms are increasingly facing the risk of finding themselves misaligned with their clients expectations.
Finally we look at the tremendous opportunities that present to traditional law firms to adapt and innovate to not only protect their position of dominance, but thrive in the new world of technologically enabled legal service.

In the Western corridor of the Serengeti lies a 350,000-acre game reserve that’s been protected by NGO, the Grumeti Fund, for the last 20 years in partnership with the Tanzanian government, creating opportunities for communities too. (It’s also Singita’s amazing conservation partner in Tanzania.)
The landscape was devoid of wildlife when they started to restore it in 2003, with a small team of ex-poachers. It took ten years for the wildlife to bounce back. Now with a team of 165, the challenges are real – climate change, integrity of the landscape, biodiversity loss – and they take the responsibility seriously.
In this episode, Matt Perry, one of the GMs of the Grumeti Fund, talks to our content creator, Ross Couper, about the various ways they conserve the area, anti-poaching efforts, community projects, and strengthening the ecosystem.
20 years ago, you couldn’t imagine a free-roaming population of black rhino within Grumeti. A few years ago, the team (in partnership with the Tanzanian Government) completed a historic black rhino reintroduction - plus a few births. This is a success story for a critically endangered species - the eastern black rhino. The Grumeti Fund can now prove that zoo stock can be used to produce wild Serengeti black rhino.
You’ll also hear about Eric the rhino, whose long and inspiring journey took him from San Diego Zoo to the grasslands of the Serengeti.
The Grumeti Fund embraces technologies like AI and constant research to enhance efficiencies. The canine anti-poaching unit is another success. The team is tackling aggressive alien invasive plants – a very real threat to wildlife and the agriculture of the neighbouring communities. Matt is looking forward to what the future holds in terms of technological innovation.
Matt and Ross discuss the future of conservation, the vision, the data, and the need to meet human-wildlife conflict and partnering with our communities. Matt believes there aren’t any key species missing from this iconic landscape, as they’ve reached ecological integrity in a short time.

In seeking to have a deep understanding of indigenous-Black identities, human and non-human, one cannot help but think about the ramifications and the intersections of anti-Black racism, slavery, gender inequality, colonialism, erasure, of history, fractured identities, sovereignty, land dispossession and violence. These issues are entangled with the spiritual, social, political and economic embodiments and structures of the lives of Black people on the African continent and in the African diaspora, and are connected to one’s sense of place and displacement, appropriation and recovery, othering and belonging.
While indigeneity in Africa and the Americas may be contested in different ways, the historical patterns of settler colonialism, cultural assimilation, identification of ancestral homelands and intensifying globalisation add to the complexity of one’s indigenous status.
In this third episode of season 3 of the Conscious Conversations podcast with me, Mmabatho Montse, we speak to Greg McNeil about African Indigeneity and Sovereignty. We share our experiences and reflections about what being Black in Africa and America has meant, what we don’t know about our history and how we can capacitate ourselves to deal with the deception of colonisation and its handlers. Greg McNeil, a Ph.D. candidate at Southwestern College, Santa Fe, New Mexico, is a business owner (Coaches Korner & Empowerment Center of New Mexico, LLC), regenerative leader, healer, visionary, transdisciplinary scholar, Life Coach, Co-Podcast Creator – Art of Self Change, Performance Fitness Coach, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (with diagnostic privileges), United States Air Force veteran, hunter, and adventurer.

Why social ownership of renewable energy is key.
In this episode, Janet Cherry (Professor of Development Studies and renowned anti-Apartheid activist) speaks to us about the exciting work she has been doing on the social ownership of renewable energy. The episode host, Alex Lenferna, speaks to Janet about the team she has been leading, and the research they undertook to understand what social ownership of renewable energy means, what the state of it is in South Africa, and how we can advance it.
Their research culminated in a report delivered to the Presidential Climate Commission with several recommendations on ensuring that renewable energy is not merely owned by and for the benefit of the elite few, but is instead delivering large scale benefits and ownership to the working-class majority as part of a truly just energy transition.

The world has been carved up by the great powers which have spiritually and economically dominated people, pushing them to strive for national dignity and nationhood. Ancestral wisdom and customs and traditional economics have been disrupted, and human energy and skills have been harnessed for the advantage of the conquerors and the disadvantage of the natural world. There are still people in the world today who regard anti-Black racism and White supremacy as race problems, a simple clash between Black and White. The world's wealthy few and their governments have promoted this narrative across the world, obscuring the real issues in the human crisis. This has greatly reduced the likelihood of the real problem being understood.
These times we find ourselves in are no different to the times of the Bible, when men were downtrodden, with many consumed by despair – a time of moral collapse and social unrest. It’s a time when attempts are being made, in every facet of our lives, to debase God in man, and to set a limit on human beings, particularly those in bodies of colour, striving to serve their Creator to the best of their ability. It’s a time in which we perhaps should look more closely at the beauty and the sweetness of the Great Invitation and the Gift that lies within that invitation.

Now, more than ever, Brand is essential to law firms and PSFs.
Now more than ever, a brand that resonates with your clients and your people is crucial to your success as a law firm.
Our guest, Rebecca Price is strategy partner, co-founder and co-owner of Frank Bright & Abel – a creative communications consultancy, that specialises in B2B and works extensively across the legal sector. A brand, employer brand, marketing and communications specialist, she’s a consultant with over 30 years’ experience. Rebecca is driven by a belief that great results are driven by simplicity, authenticity and a firm connection to the strategic intent of a firm.
Our discussion with Rebecca is a must listen for anyone interested in professional services and brand. We cover aspects of brand strategy, including the definition of brand, its importance for professional service firms, and how to effectively leverage brand to differentiate and stand out in a competitive market. Brand encompasses how an organisation positions itself in the market, what it stands for, how it behaves, the language it uses, and its visual expression. For law firms, brand is crucial in differentiating themselves from competitors who often offer similar services. Brand should be truthful and reflect the firm's aspirations, not be just spin. It needs to be authentic and align with the firm's strategic plan; Employer brand is equally important, ensuring that employees believe in and embody the brand - crucial for attracting and retaining talent. When expanding into new jurisdictions with different values, firms should be transparent about their reasons and strive to uphold their principles as much as possible. Developing a strong brand requires input from various stakeholders, including clients, employees at all levels, and external parties like recruiters, to gain a comprehensive understanding of the firm's strengths and perceptions.

Sacrificing your authenticity comes at a cost.
You don't want to miss this one!
Dr. Melanie Van Rooy will blow your minds away with her insights, stories, and personality. She is a flamingo amongst a flock of pigeons. I find her so inspirational, and her insights into authentic leadership are so important in our times. As leaders, if we want to bring change, we must bring our whole selves to the table. (It's not always easy). Authenticity creates psychological safety. By not leading with authenticity, something breaks within us, and this shows up where we lead and this impacts organisations, the home front and has a trickle down effect into our communities and society at large.
Melanie is a force to be reckoned with, and when she shares her wisdom, she takes you on a journey that makes you feel heard and understood. Bring a pen and paper; she will drop many truth bombs and bumper sticker quotes!

Our vision for Season 3 is centred around people of colour in Africa and the Diaspora. People of colour continue to suffer from the effects of structural racism and White supremacy. This structural discrimination and the subsequent stigmatisation have inflicted multiple traumas on people of colour that have developed into degenerative, fear-based ways of existing, causing a disconnection between relatives, community, the land and ancestral wisdom.
In this season’s Conscious Conversations, we hope to give listeners tools to increase their self-awareness, shift the beliefs they hold about themselves, shift their values to reflect a philosophy of Ubuntu, and find out how to use their resources to recover, transform and restore themselves, their families and their communities in a regenerative way that will nourish their whole being and strengthen their connection with our Source.

INDODA is a podcast for men to have candid conversations about their mental health challenges from a trauma-informed perspective. The topics of the show are informed and deliberately selected, so as to bring awareness of the systemic contributions towards the mental health crisis.
For so long, we have been fire-fighting symptomatic problems that stem from deeply entrenched and deliberately cultivated socially engineered problems, which predate our time. These have evolved and infiltrated into the lowest levels of our societies.
In this episode, we unpack the stigma of male gender-based violence and address the impact on their mental health.
It is crucial to emphasise that addressing the impact of GBV on men's mental health does not diminish the importance of addressing the systemic violence and discrimination that women and marginalised gender identities face. We approach GBV and mental health issues from an intersectional and inclusive perspective, recognising that everyone can be affected differently and may require tailored support.
Promoting gender equality, challenging harmful gender norms, and ensuring accessible mental health services for all survivors are important steps to ensure a more inclusive and supportive environment for everyone impacted by GBV.

It's hard to know where to start on this one. Psychedelic-assisted therapy has been such a revolution in my personal health journey that it's really difficult for me not to sound like a zealot when discussing the topic. Could psychedelics be the revolution the mental health industry so desperately needs? Maybe. Are there dangers to be cautious of? Absolutely. But in my mind, these dangers are no different to those inherent to any of the powerful drugs readily prescribed by thousands of doctors to millions of patients around the world every day.
But don't listen to me, listen to my guest. Not only does he understand this topic intrinsically, but cares perhaps more than anyone I've met about the integrity of the work being done in this field and on the frontier of mental healthcare. Brad Kallenbach is a Clinical Psychologist and co-founder of Equanimity Wellness - Africa’s first psychedelic-assisted therapy centre based right here in Sandton. Brad is also a co-founder of Reach (beta), a mental health tech app that offers real-time, science-based tools for anxiety regulation and emotional mastery.

"I can honestly say it (music) saved my life at one point."
Simone Govender is a pop singer-songwriter based in Johannesburg. She teaches music on the side. I heard her exquisite voice at a Saturday morning market, and I knew that I had to have a conversation...
The thing is, when you make music for a living, more often than not you're building sets of songs that you think people want to hear. Reading people's minds is an art, and one that is hard to get right. Simone seems to hit the nail on the head most of the time.
In this episode, we talk about building these sets, and with that said, also finding the courage to play your own songs! We chat about cyber-bullying, learning about the business side of music, faith, and the pinch-yourself moments that happen when you're following your dreams.

Two seasoned photographers on different continents share their views on the role incredible images and emotive videos play in marketing ecotourism in Africa and how they both stumbled into their current careers, almost by accident.
Ross Couper has been with Singita for ten years and is now the resident Content Creator supplying the Marketing team with high-quality images and videos spanning wildlife, lodge interiors, staff portraits, and orphaned rhino rescue missions. Tara Shupe, in the US, is an international humanitarian photographer and filmmaker.
Despite them being in two countries, they have a lot in common - from the way they fell into their current careers to the way they pack, or approach their emotive work, and their passion for wildlife and protecting wilderness areas in Africa for future generations.
Social media has changed the way photographers and filmmakers create content; and they also compare notes on camera equipment and lenses, especially how to pack for long trips in remote places such as Singita Grumeti, in Tanzania.
Join us for an interesting conversation between two professional photographers, or visual storytellers, with a wealth of knowledge whose paths cross in the conservation industry. Tara Shupe gallery and bio · See Ross Couper's wildlife photography · Singita website
In this episode, well-known travel journalist Richard Holmes talks to Dr. Andrea Ferry, Sustainability Co-ordinator at Singita. They discuss sustainability in the world of luxury travel, and especially safari travel.
Many travellers don't think too carefully about just what's being done to protect the wilderness areas they visit. Part of the problem is deciding how we define sustainability. Is it about offsetting the carbon from your flight to Africa? Is it about supporting local communities while you're here? Or is it about what powers the light bulbs in your suites and fuels the vehicle fuel game drive?
Take a deep dive into sustainability in the luxury safari industry and hear how far-reaching Singita's sustainability ethos is, and how it's being embedded into every aspect of its business - which now spans four African countries.
At Singita, a sustainable world is one in which people enjoy happy, healthy lives within their fair share of the earth’s resources, leaving space for wildlife and wilderness. Singita has also set ambitious goals to further reduce its environmental footprint and play its part in addressing the global climate crisis.

This is Safari Conversations – the Singita Podcast.
30 years ago, founder Luke Bailes had a dream of creating a pioneering ecotourism brand that could help save pristine wilderness areas in Africa for future generations.
The first chapter in Singita’s story started when Ebony Lodge opened in the Sabi Sand, in 1993. But truly, it began long before that, on a piece of land his grandfather owned and where they spent holidays as a family at Castleton.
So much has happened in the last 30 years, to where we find ourselves now – owning and managing award-winning lodges across multiple countries in Africa.
And, we are looking to expand our conservation impact even further, working alongside conservation NGO partners.
Welcome to our Podcast – where you’ll meet some of the very talented people who make our life-changing safaris a reality. Singita website
I remember the first time I noticed that women get treated a little differently at work. I was six months pregnant and running out of breath to the office. Late, as usual. Visibly pregnant, I asked for a permission slip to park closer to the building. But I was told that I needed a handwritten note from my gynae. Awks, I know. But it was then that I knew that the person who I needed help from would never understand what it meant to compete at work while sleep-deprived and managing a household. Life can leave you on a sour note, you know, but it doesn't have to stay that way.

On this week’s episode, we pause from our weekly album review schedule and instead, take a look at the current state of music. Our main focus is on the South African music scene, in particular, the Amapiano wave and the revival and future of SA hip-hop.
What are your general feelings about the current state of our music industry here at home?
Does South African hip-hop have the potential to infiltrate Western markets the same way AmaPiano has?
For you, does it matter much that most of the world seems to be crediting other countries and not South Africa for the AmaPiano wave or are you just happy that our sound is crossing borders regardless?

People are no longer satisfied with only information, but seeking wisdom. How will this impact business and why should this cultural movement not be ignored?
We observed an emerging trend of “Wisdom Seekers” for the past 8 months and wanted a deeper understanding of this movement to allow us to see the bigger picture and how businesses can apply foresight intelligence.
We applied a qualitative research methodology, Netnography. The methods we used helped us to understand the branches of ethnography (the study of different cultures, habits, and behaviours on the internet). Like a bird on a branch, observing the lions and the zebras migrating to the new promised land.

In this episode, we explore the intersection between gender-based violence (GBV), mental health and the role played by patriarchy and culture in perpetuating stigma.
GBV is deeply ingrained in our societies, perpetuating harmful norms and reinforcing gender inequalities. Survivors of GBV often experience a myriad of mental health challenges, such as post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem. The impact of GBV on mental wellness can be far-reaching and long-lasting, affecting not only the survivors but also their families and communities.
By examining these intersections, we aim to catalyse action towards destigmatising survivors' experiences and providing the necessary mental health support. This podcast serves as a stepping stone towards building a more inclusive and compassionate path to healing and creating a healed and thriving society.

We close out Season 1 on a high note with this fascinating interview with multi-award-winning author Jonny Steinberg, who was gracious enough to fit us in during his whistle-stop book tour of South Africa.
Jonny joins Fiona Snyckers and Gail Schimmel to talk about his greatly acclaimed portrayal of the marriage of Winnie and Nelson Mandela.
Jonny and Fiona reminisce about their time together at Hyde Park High School, while Gail gets to the bottom of Jonny's origin story as a writer. Jonny talks about how his daily word count has decreased in recent years and how he doesn't start writing until he is at a point in his research that warrants it.
Fiona asks Jonny about his substantial backlist and whether he would approach any of those topics differently today. Gail drills down into how the Coetsee Collection of letters and transcripts facilitated the writing of this book.
Even people who know the Mandela story will have been surprised by the insights contained in Winnie & Nelson: Portrait of a Marriage. Jonny explains that the Mandelas were the first South Africans to realise that celebrity is a political tool.

The mesmerising story of how, in the face of a mighty army, ordinary people can say "No."
It's March 2022 and Russian tanks are roaring across the vast, snow-dusted fields of Ukraine. Their destination: Voznesensk, a town with a small bridge that could change the course of the war.
The heavily-armed Russians are expecting an easy fight - or no fight at all. After all, Voznesensk is a quiet farming town, full of pensioners. But the locals appear to have other ideas.
Svetlana, a grandmother with arthritis, reacts in fury when Russian troops turn her cottage into their blood-soaked headquarters. Valentin, a quick-talking lawyer, joins the town's 'Dads Army' defenders, crouching in a trench with an AK47. Meanwhile, 21-year-old Sergei grabs a Molotov cocktail and lies in wait for Russian tanks as they push towards Dead Water Bridge.
The odds are terrible. But a plan is emerging, and there's a chance it could save not just Voznesensk, but the rest of southern Ukraine. Meanwhile, inside the tanks, an inner battle rages. As Russian officer Igor Rudenko prepares to invade, he has a secret. He is Ukrainian himself.
A gripping work of reportage that tells the story of a pivotal moment in Ukraine's war, this is a real-life thriller about ordinary people facing extraordinary circumstances with resilience, humour and ingenuity.

One of many fresh new voices in South African R&B is S B X, who has been on a steady rise in the last couple of years. The success of her debut project (These Songs Are About You), compelled S B X to release her sophomore EP in 2022, (These Songs Are About You Too) which spawned the hit R&B heartbreak tune, ‘Why?’ and the Hip-hop/R&b crossover ‘Dues’. In April 2023, S B X released her highly anticipated third project, Now That It’s Over. The rollout and project has been praised by her peers and fans alike, introducing her to a wider, mainstream audience since its release. The tape is supported by radio singles, “Cycles” and “Consider It” featuring Manana. We recently caught up with S B X to unpack her EP and also discuss her journey in the game thus far.
S B X continues to make her mark in the entertainment industry with not only her music but also her current brand and fashion collaborations. Having been noted as one of SA’s RnB rising artists to watch, it is with no doubt that we will see SBX push more boundaries with her artistry in the future.

Lisa here; I chose "JOY" as the first topic for this first season (Demystifying Wellness) of our podcast because I fundamentally believe it is the substrate to every wellness, fitness, or health transformation journey... in fact, it's the foundation for a life of WHOLENESS!
Without joy, your overcoming, mastering of self, and attempts at discipline are flawed and everything is just SO much more difficult. We often overlook "joy" but I've seen so many of my clients fall short because they did not start here. Joy is not something you instantly attain, it's a continuous cultivation via mindset management, mindful practices, and various other areas of continual orchestration.
In this episode, I share my personal views, my personal actions and habits, and hopefully demystifies and empowers all of you to find your JOY! This episode is just over 2 hours long but it's because I wanted to pour my heart out COMPLETELY regarding this topic. I pray you will all take it in and my hope is that you all find it and continually cultivate, harvest, (re)plant and reap the most beautiful fruits of... YOUR JOY!

Welcome to "I See You", the podcast that talks to the African diaspora about celebrating our cultural diversity so that we can truly see each other.

Welcome to The Ruck. The podcast that talks to avid rugby lovers about controversial opinions, unpopular takes, and news updates so that we can all chop it up in conversation about the love of the game.
I remember when I was young and my father had been hospitalized for a year, leaving my family vulnerable with no money. He said to me, "To ever be successful, put people first". My family foundation was built on putting people first and that shaped my values. I now have an opportunity to become a catalyst in the movement of being a community builder.

This is ‘Safari Conversations’ – the Singita Podcast.
30 years ago, founder, Luke Bailes, had a dream of creating a pioneering ecotourism brand that could help save pristine wilderness areas in Africa for future generations.
The first chapter in Singita’s story started when Ebony Lodge opened in the Sabi Sand, in 1993. But truly, it began long before that, on a piece of land his grandfather owned and where they spent holidays as a family at Castleton.
So much has happened in the last 30 years, to where we find ourselves now – owning and managing award-winning lodges across multiple countries in Africa.
And, we are looking to expand our conservation impact even further working alongside conservation NGO partners.

We discuss the importance and correct use of life insurance as part of holistic life planning
The African continent is rich with diverse cultures, indigenous knowledge systems, and technologies. Our culture involves our social behaviour and norms, our languages, knowledge, beliefs, traditions, arts, capacities, and habits.
Over decades, we have seen the deliberate alienation and marginalization of African cultural values and traditions by the designs of colonialism and apartheid, which have resulted in the misrepresentation and disorientation of some of the most fundamental aspects of our African culture. In an era of rapidly changing technologies digital solutions become critical for the application of holistic and knowledge-based approaches to societal problems.
In this conversation, we speak to Russel Hlongwane in an effort to identify the key touchpoints we can engage with in reclaiming and restoring our history and cultural heritage; finding pathways to expand our reach and digital presence, and preserving Africa's rich cultural heritage.
Russel Hlongwane is a cultural producer based between Cape Town and Durban, South Africa. His work is located at the intersection of Heritage/Modernity and Culture/Tradition as they apply to black life on the continent and the diaspora. His said practice includes cultural research, film, creative producing, design theory, curatorship, writing and performance – often taking the form of installation.
He has curated exhibitions and art platforms locally and abroad, and his artistic work has been shown extensively across Europe and Africa. His experimental film, Ifu Elimnyama: The Dark Cloud’ received the Jury Prize (2019) at the Sharjah Film Platform. Visit our website · Follow on Instagram

African people were uprooted from their long-standing indigenous agricultural way of life which involved maintaining a harmonious relationship between communities, nature, and traditional religious practices. These practices involved ceremonies, festivals, and rituals in alignment with the cycles of the seasons. Embodied, enacted, and reinforced in these traditions were sacred values communicated between communities and mother earth. The community rituals often included agricultural rituals designed to persuade the gods and ancestors to deliver rains, and successful harvests, and to guarantee healthy livestock. Through colonisation and urbanisation, African people were removed from their way of life, adversely affecting their ability to nurture and protect natural resources in order to ensure food production and sustainability at a local level.
In this conversation with Dr Pama, we aim to gather insight into how the abandonment of African traditional religious practices among Africans has negatively impacted our abilities to connect with the earth, nurturing a symbiosis between communities, nature, and God. Dr Bonile Pama, known to many as Baba Songindaba, is an agricultural economist and a business strategist by training with an MSc Agric, MBL and PhD degrees. Visit our website · Follow on Instagram

Astrology in Africa, as in other societies, has for many years been considered a form of divination that involves forecasting earthly and human events through the observation and interpretation of the Sun, the Moon, the fixed stars, and other planets. According to ancient practices originating from Mesopotamia, astrology shaped the perceptions and particular practices of society; informing their understanding and experiences of the world.
Astrology has for many centuries been considered an important form of intelligence, helping humanity know the truth, explaining cosmological alignments around the time of birth of people, and foretelling events, at times preventing negative foreseen events from taking place. Due to the marginalisation of peoples, and ancestral and societal trauma, much of this intelligence has been suppressed. As a result, many people suffer from low self-worth, esteem and disempowerment.
In this conversation, we speak to Makhosi Maïlé Moon about how understanding astrology and one's personal astrological DNA can help individuals and communities heal, shifting their energies from powerlessness to self-empowerment.
Maïlé Moon (Makhosi Ngonakame) is an Evolutionary Astrologer, Healer, and Musician. She has been working with cacao and sound as well as rose medicine for the past 8 years, living in between the Mayan lands of Guatemala and the mountains of Europe. Visit our website · Follow on Instagram

African people have for many years lived having to suppress who they were, whether it be through the expression of their languages, traditions (enforcement of Christianity), culture (dance, song, style)... simply, their way of Being.
There exist deep connections between Black South Africans and Americans because of our shared long history of racial segregation and white supremacy. Where entire societies were structured against the Black community, which meant no economic, social, or cultural power. The cultural legacies of this history have influenced how the stories of black people have been portrayed in the media, which has often meant "being inferior" and unacceptable. While institutionalised racial segregation ended in 1964 in the United States of America, and in 1994 in South Africa - we see how media, ideology, and popular culture continue to portray Black people as inferior, with certain stereotypes that propagate controversial and misconstrued images of what it means to be Black.
In this conversation, we speak to Joy Donnell about how we, as black people, can reframe the narrative around what it means to be black by telling our stories in an authentic way, ultimately redefining what it means to be black. Joy is a producer and writer dedicated to creating media that builds cultural legacy. She believes in owning your power and for Joy, power is owning your voice, image, narrative, influence and intentions. Joy’s work actively combines publicity, content strategy, and media to build legacy and expand awareness. Visit our website · Follow on Instagram

Exploring the Impact and Consequences of AI in the Music Industry.
The music industry is one of the many sectors that have been greatly impacted by the advancements in artificial intelligence (AI). The impact of AI in the music industry is complex and multifaceted. These days AI has the ability to change the way music is created, distributed and consumed, bringing about both positive and negative consequences.

Learning from COSATU's radical vision of a just transition.
In this episode, we speak to Lebogang Mulaisi, the labour market policy coordinator at the Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU) and a commissioner on the Presidential Climate Change Coordinating Commission. Lebogang coordinates and implements COSATU's labour market policy and the just transition to a low-carbon economy. She joins host Alex Lenferna as they discuss why capitalism is at the root of the climate crisis, and why COSATU believes that a truly just transition must mean a radical transformation towards ecosocialism.

Quality education is said to promise highly developed and empowered individuals who can explore the peculiarities of their environment to obtain expertise and knowledge that will lead to innovation and advancement within a society. The word education is often referred to in the context of deliberate effort to equip the unequipped with facts, knowledge, skills and competencies that will enable them to function as adults in a specific society.
For decades, education in Africa has been disseminated through different colonial entities, such as missionaries, merchants, and governments - each with their own purpose. While African countries have been liberated from colonial rule for many years, the legacies and biases of colonialism on the education systems and its sub-components such as the curriculum and research fields continue to influence local knowledge systems, philosophies and perspectives.
In this conversation, we speak to Yandiswa Xhakaza about the relevance of local knowledge, culture and spirituality in reframing and implementing educational change in Africa to build a continent that is more representative of itself. Visit our website · Visit our website · Follow on Instagram

You can't make a film and not put any music in it.
Jack&Jill Productions is a boutique company based in South Africa. Their latest film 'Table Manners' was an official selection at The Indie Film Fest (2019), Universal Film Fest (2019), Jelly Fest (2019), Durban International Film Festival (2018), and Silwerskerm Festival (2018). The film was also nominated for Best Picture and Best Director on its International Festival Run.
The people behind Jack&Jill are Leli Maki Esq. (Director) and Nkuli Sibeko (Producer). The pair popped into studio for a little (and MORE THAN delightful) chat about what's involved in getting music into films.
This interview pulls no punches. If you are a musician who'd like to see your song in a film or a tv show, you want to listen to this.
It's full of gems like:
"And sadly, I think one of the things that surprised me when we first started on this journey was discovering that it's never the artists that you're going to (for music rights), because they never own their own music."
and
"We're not looking for a hit song, but for how a heart breaks."
and
"If the words 'I don't like that song' are going to break you. Find a new career."
and
"Congratulating a musician on releasing a song is the same as congratulating a child for breathing."
Outro music: 'So Lucky' by the Plastics

African culture is vast, vibrant and colourful. Africans are known for their warmth, vibrant culture, traditions, religions, food, art, dance, and music among many things. While it has been decades since African countries gained their independence from colonial rule and oppression, the legacies of colonisation continue to permeate society through different institutions and economic structures, which have had a major role in the unprogressive and unproductive ways and forms of being African people have taken up.
In this conversation, we speak to Thebe Ikalafeng about the ties that continue to bind us as Africans and the ways in which we can be more deliberate in uniting the continent and its people, reimagining solutions that steer us into collective action, rebuilding an Africa alive with possibilities for all who live on it.

We are brave - be brave with us too, please.
Raksha Naidoo (WIMSA, Chairperson 2023 - 2024) chats with Unity Makamu (WIMSA 2022 Mentee), Humbulani Havhi (WIMSA 2022 Mentee), Ndamulelo Mutshinya (WIMSA 2022 mentee), and Moyahabo Ntwagae (WIMSA 2022 Mentee) about their experiences as mentees in the Women in Mining South Africa mentoring programme 2022 and asks them what they want mentors to know based on their experiences.
These are the key things that they talked about and want mentors to know:
Asking someone to be your mentor can feel scary and it takes courage to make the ask - but it turns out that it's not as scary as they had imagined.
Mentees want mentors to reciprocate their courage by giving them tough feedback (and positive feedback) so that they can grow and learn as fast as possible.
Sometimes mentees don't know what they don't know and despite being committed to self-reflection, mentees sometimes need mentors to guide them and hold their hands, metaphorically speaking, until clarity and self-knowledge are developed.
Mentees need their mentors to verbalise their belief in them, to stretch and challenge them, and to help them see the things that they cannot see in themselves - it helps mentees in building their courage and confidence.
Sometimes mentees are scared of overstepping the boundaries or don't know where the boundaries are - they need their mentors to help clarify boundaries and what to expect from the relationship.
The conversation wrapped up with a note that most mentors will really appreciate - sometimes mentees don't pitch up and it's rarely a reflection of the mentor. Most often it's because of the mentees' own internal struggles and never due to a lack of appreciation for the time and effort that mentors invest in them.
Defining climate change as a health issue.
Health, as we understand it, should be considered central to climate change. Climate change will have profound impacts on people and public health.
In this episode, we speak to guests who work at the intersection between coal, climate, energy, and health. We reflect on the outcomes of the 2022 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP27) in Egypt, specifically about discussions relating to the health sector and climate change. Our guests weigh in on whether or not we are making meaningful progress towards defining climate change as a health issue.
We've long advocated that the health sector should be vested in climate change and all the associated ways of tackling climate change. Listen to this episode to understand why.

Today we are talking about mental health. If you follow me or if we follow each other online, you will have noticed that this is a topic that I care deeply about and have spoken about increasingly over the last couple of months and years, and it has been a feature of my entrepreneurial journey. It's been a feature of my life, really.
But I've realized that not only is it helpful for me to talk about it, and to share some of my story, but there's also sort of a widespread stigma around talking about mental health issues, especially amongst men, especially amongst businessmen and I'm really committed to changing some of that stigma and creating spaces where we can talk about some of the stuff that we're struggling with, in the same way that we would talk about all the other topics that are tough to tackle in the business world. My guest today is somebody who also cares specifically about creating new spaces and new spaces at scale, to assist you in whatever capacity you need.

Youth and Gender activist, Ayanda Sishi Wigzell speaks to Isobel Frye, Khutso Makobela and Amahle Ngwenya of SPI on Basic Income Grant in this two-part episode.
In Part One Ayanda talks about the importance of Dignity in defining her activism and how poverty actively erodes this. Growing up she saw how grants enabled poor people in her surrounds to live with greater dignity of purpose.
In Part Two Ayanda talks with great passion about the divide and distance between formal politicians and the youth in South Africa, concluding that if there were any decent politicians in South Africa today we would have had a universal Basic Income Grant a long time back.

It started around 3am. Maybe 3:10am. Somewhere around there – the words ‘Positive Pages‘ catapulted through my mind. Families were mourning the loss of loved ones, businesses were closing their cash registers, streets were laden with, well, nobody really – except Hopelessness. The world shut its doors from everything and everyone, and my eyes were wide open, staring at a 3am ceiling - with the words ‘Positive Pages’ bouncing between my ears.
Some might call it a sign from the gods, others may deem it utter madness – ‘insomnia’ - during an unprecedented time that called for fear and panic and anything but, “positivity”.
Where would it come from? This deep optimism in the time of Corona; where would the people find their will to smile, to rejoice, to share stories of joy when their sanitised hearts were breaking to the beats of a curve that no one could see and rising statistics that everyone could feel. It felt an impossible journey, and a feeble one too.
But the tapping wouldn’t stop, and the ceiling wouldn’t crumble. And so, against the very nature of social expectation in a time of the modern world’s most devastating virus – this book was born.
Over 170 little stories of joy, written by strangers and friends and communities and teachers and sinners and mothers and fathers and daughters that miss their grannies every day, and wanderers - oh the wanderers and their seeking hearts – and 16-year olds dreaming of the ocean waves behind their locked door. Stories of family, and gratitude and seeking, and tea.
Watch out for the Wind and the Light and the elephants and many many miracles here; and unexpected celebrities that turn up at your fingers, and a yellow door - and a loaf of bread shared on a corner. In this book you will not find a beginning nor an end; what exists here is a raw, honest start from who we are and from where we are. Here you will find the pen, the paper, the soul reaching out to touch a hand, to wipe a tear to laugh out loudly at the silly significant memories we make; and to let us know through every broken wing - there is still the will to fly. And all will be better, in the morning.
All the People marching today (for anti-corruption, load-shedding, cadre deployment or varsity students) will be wishing they had a comfy pair of shoes to do it in.

Your gateway to creating real wealth.
According to research, financial trauma is a reality for one-third of millennials today, but what is it? How do you identify that you have financial trauma, how does it impact your wealth creation journey and how can you get financial healing?

We sat down for a chat in a rainy room in Eshowe mid-COVID some years ago. I FINALLY got around to listening to it. And much like every episode so far, it's come at a time when I needed to hear this conversation.
Maybe you do too?
We talk about making music as a coping mechanism, songwriting from a South African perspective, the desire to delete social media, the power of covering other people's songs, and how not doing music full-time doesn't need to change your identity as a musician.
"You play the songs that people love and that mean things to them and then you're doing your job. That's the archetypal purpose." - Lizzie Lou Gaisford (Fishwives)
"I have done lots of strange work for money and it's never affected my sense of self. I'm lucky. You can whore yourself out doing spreadsheets, but because I'm a musician, I can then stay up all night writing a song." - Lizzie Lou Gaisford (Fishwives)
The Fishwives very recently released a new album and it's SO GOOD. Follow the links to listen to it.

It's time to reunite and enjoy the food, ambience and atmosphere. A display of emotions is expected and appropriate. It’s crucial to reflect, release and respect not only on the good times but having hard discussions to unravel what caused the rift, tension, disintegration, hurt, anger, disillusionment, betrayal, hypocrisy and lies.
Struggling with unresolved feelings during Christmas, we get the sensation that we’ve been plagued by a series of events and adversities. These setbacks result in enormous, unprecedented destruction, frozen cold feeling like thunder. We see a dark, loveless cave with no light, no hope anywhere and not even the faintest crack. Hurt people, hurt people. It’s a vicious circle and it can be broken.
It’s difficult to facilitate positive change in the family system where unresolved feelings remain. It is important to exhibits a variety of truths while exploring behavioural patterns and family dynamics. Understanding patterns that seed the problems of roles within the family, interactions, communication and language used to discuss the problems when allowing the family to challenge perceptions of events. The behaviour may be in response to the unconscious anxiety about family breakdown, conflict and indifferences
Family Dynamics Influences:
Personalities of family members
Parental relationship
Events such as divorce, trauma, grief, unemployment, homeless and more
Family values, culture, ethnicity, hierarchy, power, status,
Family violence, abuse, alcohol, drug use, mental health difficulties, disabilities and illness
What to do:
Seek professional advice (therapist, social worker and physicians)
Effective communication, sharing and supporting each other in decision making
Reflect healthily, Release positively and Respect our differences
Marching Ahead
The courage to rise above the suppressed, repressed emotions and feelings is remarkable
Guest on this episode: Thenjiwe Mamane
In this first episode, we take a look at digital violence and how the Internet can be a hateful, hostile place, particularly for women, girls, racial and ethnic minorities, LGBTQ+ and other marginalized communities. We explore the extent to which digital violence is prevalent in the East and Southern Africa Region. In the past few years, with the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, 85 percent of women have experienced or witnessed digital violence. Digital violence, which is prevalent, repetitive, perpetual and pervasive, violates a person's privacy, dignity, autonomy and rights and it can be devastating.
This episode highlights the need to end cyberstalking to hate speech and the non-consensual use of images and video, such as deepfakes. When someone infringes on music or film copyright, digital platforms remove the content immediately.
Governments have passed laws making copyright infringement illegal and digital platforms have devised ways to identify and prevent the unauthorized use of copyrighted material. UNFPA calls for the same protections and repercussions must also extend to individuals and their photos.
UNFPA calls for technology companies and policymakers to take digital violence seriously.

In this short podcast, Reima Shakeir reflects on the current state of belonging and inclusion in business and academia. Reima sees a shared sense of belonging as the hallmark of advanced societies and communities - and the key to employee retention and happiness. As she says, "People want to be heard and to be seen - and that’s it." She reflects on systems that are still nonetheless designed for exclusion and on those that exclude due to institutional carelessness or lack of awareness on the part of the leadership.
In this conversation, we explore what’s working, why and where there is pushback. What are some of the simple things that organisations are doing that make a difference? Reima reflects on the fear of getting things wrong, especially when it comes to language and the need to gather hard data to support changes in the system.

Being connected to Love has made TAWVN feel connected to Life.
“I want to Live. And, live deliberately this time.” - TAWVN
In this journey that we’re about to embark on, TAWVN and Timothy Maurice Webster, a 4-time bestselling behavioural psychology author, explore the deep interconnectedness that she has with her Music, the soil, the Universe, the Earth, and the deepest parts of her Soul.
Join TAWVN in conversation with Timothy Maurice Webster to experience her iridescent soul.
“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, to discover that I had not lived.
I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and to be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion.”
– Henry David Thoreau

A Grandmother's Love, the abundance of Joy.
Does pain and strife have to come before goodness and joy?

Step boldly into our strange, new world
Written by John Sanei
Narrated by the Author
‘I know that what I’ve learnt in the past two years will help me for the rest of my life. My hope is that you will see yourself reflected in my own journey, and . . . consider who you will become in this new world of ours. Who we all might become.’
If you’re suffering from a crisis of meaning, you’re not alone. In this powerful new book, future strategist John Sanei shares how he found ways to cope with the uncertainty that has been all around us in the past two years. Lockdown meant his career came to a screeching halt. He was living with his parents and then had to battle loneliness until he started to reassess who he was and what he wanted from life.
Infused with empathy and personal anecdote, Who Do We Become? explores our individual responsibility to evolve into more decent, dynamic versions of ourselves, our businesses and humanity as a whole – especially in times of crisis.
The book is divided into three sections. In Part 1: ANGUISH, John explores how to courageously mourn the loss of our ‘normal’ pre-COVID world. Part 2: ABNORMAL, shows us how to understand this new environment and recognise that uncertainty is the new normal. Then, in Part 3: ADVENTURE, John provides a toolkit for us to forge out into the new world, to succeed and recognise the signs of rebirth and renewal. Travel with John as he maps out our strange, new world and lays down a path to reframe our thinking, to recognise our discomfort, to survive and thrive.
Stop telling stories. Start selling them
Written by Richard Mulholland
Narrated by the Author
How to win deals and influence ideas by mastering the eloquent art of storytelling.
The business world is rightly obsessed with the incredible power of a good story. Unfortunately too many of us take that to mean that it is our own story that’s important. It’s not. The magic happens not when we tell our customers the story of our past, but when we sell them a new story of their future. One in which we play a part.
s a salesperson you have two jobs. Job No. 2 of the storyseller is to help clients and customers slay their dragon. Job No. 1 of the storyseller is to help them see their dragon. You win when the dragon that they acknowledge is the one that you can give them the weapon to defeat. Forget USP (unique selling proposition) and embrace the UPS (unique problem that only you can solve).
Here Be Dragons isn’t just a how-to book for the business sales person, it is far more a why-to, and mostly a what-to-do book that will help you drive create growth, improve sales and new business through storytelling. In this short and highly practical book, renowned speaker Richard Mulholland shares with you how to use powerful stories to change minds, win deals, drive sales, and solve problems.
The Life of James Stevenson-Hamilton
Written by Jane Carruthers
Narrated by Malcolm Gooding
More than any other individual, James Stevenson-Hamilton can be credited with the creation of the Kruger National Park in South Affica.
In 1902, when the South African War ended, Stevenson-Hamilton swopped his military career for the more uncertain calling of a game warden. Under his supervision the small, neglected and war-ravaged Sabi Game Reserve expanded in stature and size. By the time he retired in 1946, the Kruger National Park had become as one of the great national parks of the world.
The evolution of the Kruger National Park was his life's work but Stevenson-Hamilton kept his many other interests alive. During the First World War he fought in Gallipoli and Egypt. In 1917 he was seconded to a civilian administrative post in the southern Sudan where he remained until 1921. During the late 1920s and 1930s he consolidated the development of the Kruger Park. After his retirement he remained in South Africa and lived with his wife and family near White River in the Eastern Transvaal Buy on Apple iTunes now

Written by Dr. Jean-Marie Jullienne
Narrated by the Author
This book has its origin in a spiritual calling the author received to find the true meaning of Bible texts by returning to the original Greek and Hebrew scriptures.
During a period of isolation, he was inspired to search the scriptures and compare the original texts with widely accepted translations. Essential value lay in the root analysis of each word. Some words in Greek may comprise as many as four roots. By identifying the exact meaning of each, the true meaning of the word is discerned.
Dr Jean-Marie Jullienne notes that mankind should understand that God’s uncreated energies are within them and are continually creating them. Every time they breathe, God is giving forth His Word in them.
It is the author's fervent prayer that, through such earnest contemplation, you, the reader, will come to an understanding of your true identity in God. Buy on Apple iTunes now

What if infertility isn't a war but an awakening?
Written by Rekha Ramcharan
Narrated by the Author
The author had her first child at 45 but, while that may intrigue you, what will keep you listening is the path that took her from infertility to 'motherness.
This is a unique audiobook about infertility which, on the surface, tells the autobiographical success story of a woman who had a baby naturally against all the medical odds after four years and countless disappointments.
At a deeper level, though, the audiobook explores the journey the author took from the first steps, in which she placed all her hope on physical infertility treatment, to her final understanding that the work she undertook on emotional, psychological, and spiritual levels was the true reason that she had achieved motherness.
Viewing infertility not as a scourge but an invitation - to consider her holistic health and balance on a multitude of dimensions - the audiobook explores the many ways in which the battle to have a child, a source of despair for an increasing number of women, may be a call to engage with awakening, expansion, and spiritual growth. If you're over 35 - or over 40 - this honest (and often funny) narrative about finding purpose in a heart-breaking and often private torment may be the best audiobook you'll listen on the subject.

A real-life solution to get unstuck and break free
Written by Devon Brough
Narrated by the Author
Devon Brough knows what it’s like when you say you’ve hit rock bottom; when you can’t take it any more; when you’re so low you’re wondering whether it’s worth living any more. He’s been there, got the T-shirt.
Having suffered years of substance abuse, volatile relationships and self-destructive behaviour, Devon finally heeded the advice of R Narayan Murthy – that “Growth is painful. Change is painful. But nothing is as painful as staying stuck where you don’t belong.”
The process of change begins with one simple decision. It truly doesn’t matter what you’ve done or who you’ve been – there is tremendous power when you decide that you’ve had enough. From this comes the realisation that, no matter the mistakes of your past, you deserve to be happy and successful.
In Get OVA It!, Devon presents his real-world method for anyone stuck in a life rut to break free from the pain and sadness holding them back. Ownership, Vision and Action stack together to form the structure of his programme – used in tandem, they provide an opportunity for profound transformation.

Great business leadership is able to set (and achieve) ambitious targets and is nimble enough to take fast and decisive action. Most of all though, leaders can inspire others to perform at their best. To unpack next-generation leadership, we are joined by Nyimpini Mabunda who is the CEO of GE Southern Africa and chairman of the US-South Africa Business Centre at the US Chamber of Commerce, as well as Professor Milford Soko, Professor of International Business and Strategy at Wits Business School.

Raksha Naidoo, WiMSA Deputy Chairperson and WIMSA Mentoring Committee member chats with five of the 2022 WiMSA Mentoring Programme mentees (Ndamulelo Mutshiny, Humbulani Havhi, Ntshuxeko Unity Makamu, Vilencia Parsaraman and Moyahabo Ntwagae) about their journey in the mentoring programme.
The conversation starts with an emphasis on being intentional and how this philosophy of the mentoring programme has changed the way the mentees show up not just in the mentoring programme, but in their career and their personal lives too.
The mentees discuss how the programme has awoken an interest in personal awareness, in asking themselves who they truly are and what they bring to their careers when they manage themselves as a business.
A key theme of the programme has been #showupandshine and each mentee talks about how different aspects of the mentoring programme have helped them to do exactly this through quietening their inner critic, managing their career value chain, understanding their thinking preferences and how that influences how they communicate and show up in the world.
Vilencia talks about the impact of adopting the philosophy of managing her career as a business.
Unity elaborates on how understanding her thinking preferences has helped her engage with more impact.
Humbulani shares that the focus on self-care, burnout and setting boundaries reminded her to see the signs of burnout, and helped her raise awareness with her colleagues on the signs.
Moyahabo emphasises how the programme helped her to be more introspective and to put herself and her self-care at the forefront.
Ndamo shares how the theme on inner critic helped her separate her inner critic from herself and harness the courage to step up and show up.
The podcast wraps up with an exploration on the value of mentoring and encouragement to apply for the 2023 WIMSA mentoring programme. WiMSA website · WiMSA LinkedIn

It is happening against the backdrop of climate change, which is touted to bring catastrophic consequences with it, including increased levels of drought, heighten the risk of mudslides, and exacerbate fire season.
With South Africa experiencing a growth in the frequency and intensity of disasters, reducing our risk is vital to saving lives and livelihoods and minimising losses. And so, there is no better time than now to promote a culture of disaster reduction and preparedness.

Have you ever felt helpless, trapped, hopeless, resentful, detached, disillusioned, cynical, withdrawal from responsibilities, procrastinating with a negative outlook and completely exhausted? You may be on the road to Burnout.
It's a state of emotional, physical and mental exhaustion caused by excessive and prolonged stress. Burnout tangles and weaves into every area of life including your work, home and social life. These feelings cause body reactions leaving you vulnerable to illness. Signs and symptoms are subtle at first and worsen when not addressed.
Our guest Kathy Mann, author of two books on Avoiding Burnout "The Seven Principles of Self Preservation" and Harnessing Stress "Blending The Wisdom of Everyday People with Expert Advice", takes us through her journey on burnout self-discovery. She endured a great loss of pain, discomfort, self-identity and time passing her by before coming out of the fog. Today her best life is characterised by joy, vibrancy and optimism.
She unpacks how the Burnout experience was a catalyst to fix her life. Kathy changed her lifestyle and could not return to the environment that broke her. She followed her passion and connected with the things that brought her flow. Her tools will help you find your flow.

Briony Liber, mentoring Lead for the WIMSA Mentoring Programme, chats with Mbali Milanzi (Tshepa Basadi Group | MD); Melody Mmesetse (WIMSA 2022 mentee and MEng Geotechnical Engineering student); Ndamulelo Mutshinya (WIMSA 2022 mentee and Anglo American Platinum | Section Ventilation Officer) about myths that seem to get in the way of mentoring relationships.
Some of the myths that get debunked in this conversation include:
- people are too busy to be mentors (it's not true - sometimes you just need to ask);
- you need to be impressive before someone will be willing to mentor you (it's not true - in fact, most people start their journey towards being impressive by asking someone to mentor them);
- mentors need to know everything and be able to mentor you on everything you want to know (it's not true - there are no unicorn mentors!);
- mentoring needs to be formal and it needs to take the form of a meeting (it's not true - mentoring can take whatever form you and your mentor decide will work for you);
- mentors are hard to find (it's not true - sometimes we just aren't looking at everyone in our networks as potential mentors).
One of the key points made in the conversation is that sometimes labelling someone as your mentor from the start, can add a lot of pressure to the relationship. Probably the most important conclusion in this conversation is that perhaps by dropping the label of "mentor", a more organic relationship can develop that serves the needs of a mentee and eventually grows into a relationship that can be labelled as one of mentoring.

Lizo Mnguni (spokesperson Old Mutual Insure) and Gugulethu Mfuphi (Financial journalist & Global moderator)
Following the disruptive lockdowns of the past two years, global supply chains have struggled to normalise. This has seen the dramatic increase in the price of everyday items, leading to inflation rates last seen several decades ago. Economists are saying that it is likely to persist for the next while. To combat this, the South African Reserve Bank and other central banks across the globe have raised interest rates, further putting pressure on the consumers’ spending power. These actions, together with the global inflationary environment, are causing the usual trends to buck. Insurers and consumers are being affected, especially when it comes to claims stage. To unpack this issue further, I’m chatting to Lizo Mnguni, spokesperson at Old Mutual Insure. The topic of this podcast is around how the inflationary environment is impacting your insurance.

What do we really mean when we call things artificially intelligent? Is AI significant progress or a significant threat? And when does SkyNet some online?
My guest is Daniel Hulme. Daniel was a guest lecturer on my Master's program back in 2019 and by some distance, the most impactful certainly for me. The reason is that he covered in his talk the very foggy topic of artificial intelligence, and specifically how it's understood and approached by business.
I firmly believe that one of the things going really wrong in digital transformation is a lack of consistent unified definitions for all of the trends and technologies that drive disruptive change. So much money, time and effort have been spent on these things that everyone at the boardroom table seems to have a different definition for.
Daniel is the CEO of a business called Satalia, which focuses on developing workable AI solutions for businesses around the world. It was also incidentally recently acquired by WPP, which is the same network that bought my agency. Dr Daniel Hulme's Singularity University profile

"We had the privilege this year of having Colin Iles's talk at our Valediction. And share his thoughts on what the future might look like for our future alumni.
At Edu Inc, the Valediction is a very, very important rite of passage. And one of the key elements is that the students get to share their journey and their thoughts on their journey with their peers and with their parents.
It's a time for them to acknowledge the people that have helped them along the path, the people who have supported them, and to kind of prepare what the future generations in the school might have to experience and the things that they might have to overcome.
I met Colin in a podcast that didn't become a podcast when we ended up agreeing on too much. And he wanted a boxing match. But what it did highlight for us is that there was a likeness and thinking on what education should look like, and the future that these kids are going to be walking into. And I think that the message he gave them was very pertinent. I certainly had to listen to it more than once to take it all out. And I would like to share this message with our community so that everybody understands what the future might hold for them."

If you're a parent, a teacher or a psychologist, do you ask yourself "how safe are our children?"
Do they grasp what big tech has planned for them?
What are they trading with every click?
And can they springboard off the greatest technological point in our history, and explore and excel?
With VR, AR, sextech, the metaverse, the next few years, or tennis upside down.
My name is Dean McCOubrey and this podcast, Zed Alph,a looks ahead and examines the impact of emerging technology on our children from their self-esteem and mental well being to privacy and cybersecurity, navigating the technological and generational divide and pointing them to self-regulation, critical thinking, vulnerability, emotional support, and a smart, confident life that excites and interests them.
Because the world is their oyster, and for some it's sitting in the palm of their hand.

A guide to the best decade evah - The 80s!
The 80s were a time of hope and frustration for teens and 20-somethings in South Africa, but there was a whole lot of boogying going on.
Drummer (and wannabe frontman!) of such iconic SA bands, such as eVoid, Petit Cheval and Wonderboom, Danny de Wet takes us back on a memory trip through the fogs of time, to an era that not only those that lived through it will appreciate, but as a handy manual for the youngers who are locked into electronics and social media on just how the youth used to live their lives.
For this (mostly) unadulterated look at one of the most prolific times in SA Rock history, #ListenHere for a bit of background - and then get the book to find out more.
We answer the age-old question: "How do I finance my business as a SME?"
SMEs often don’t have the capital to make the most of instant opportunities that become available to them as traditional funding from banks may not always be a solution. In this episode, I am joined by a formidable team from Geddes Capital (CEO, Brent Geddes and CIO Warren Deats) who strive to raise the bar when it comes to helping entrepreneurs raise capital for their businesses.
In this conversation, we strip down some of the funding challenges faced by SMEs in South Africa, alternative funding solutions that are available, how to engage with alternative funders and we even touch on possible funding solutions for your side hustle. Yeap! That’s right. Tune in and listen.

“Sometimes I think that the point of birdwatching is not the actual seeing of the birds, but the cultivation of patience. Of course, each time we set out, there's a certain amount of expectation we'll see something, maybe even a species we've never seen before, and that it will fill us with light. But even if we don't see anything remarkable - and sometimes that happens - we come home filled with light anyway.”
― Lynn Thomson, Birding with Yeats: A Mother's Memoir
And that's what it's about!
Whether you be brand new to the birdwatching game, or a long-time, avid spotter, as one writer has it - “Birds will give you a window, if you allow them. They will show you secrets from another world– a fresh vision that, though it is avian, can accompany you home and alter your life. They will do this for you even if you don't know their names– though such knowledge is a thoughtful gesture. ”
We find out more about Adam Riley's new book, commissioned by Helm Wildlife Guides, on Birds of South Africa, the portable concise must-have that will give you an entry into 'twitching', or a quick reference if you're travelling light. And more about how birds are so essential to not only the world at large but to the space surrounding you.

The problem with charismatic leaders.
What is charisma, how does it benefit leaders, and how can it be toxic?
Why do people follow charismatic leaders, even when it might not be good for them?
Why should leaders develop an inspirational leadership style rather than relying on charisma?
Jon Stokes is interested in how charismatic leadership can be toxic and the effect that it has on followers. He explores how leaders can inspire growth rather than dependence. He is an a an Associate Fellow at Oxford University's Said Business School and a founder of Stokes Jolly, a leadership consulting and advisory firm. He teaches and writes extensively about leadership, and coaches CEOs and their leadership teams.

In my conversation with philosopher Robert Rowland Smith, we explore the dimensions of power. If power is the ability to make things happen in accordance with our will, why do some people crave more power than others? What are the real drivers of power? What do the philosophers say about power? Is power part of the human condition? Is power always bad? When can power be a force for good? This conversation takes us from current power struggles through to an unexpected conclusion all the while acknowledging that power is a movable and dynamic force.

“What to eat?” is one of the FAQs when it comes to extreme, ultra-marathons such as KAEM. In addition to the must-haves for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and recovery, here's our list of the TOP 10 NICE-TO-HAVE items for your KAEM bag.
Please add your nice-to-haves and feel free to share 🙂 1. Nuts 2. Salty biscuits or snacks (e,g,: Niknaks) 3. Raisins & other much-loved dried fruits for something sweet - you need something sweet from time to time. Jelly babies and the likes melt in the heat, but dried fruit is quite good - share if you have other treats 4. Droëwors, biltong, (dried beef or game), or salami sticks 5. Cuppa soup (more than you think necessary – they don’t weigh much and are incredibly comforting and help to replenish salt) 6. Coffee sachets 7. Ginger biscuits 8. Minty chewing gums 9. Parmesan powder 10. Popsicles
*Please note: Do not pack or vacuum pack droëwors or biltong in plastic bags. These can be packed in brown paper bags to keep dry and airy. With excessive heat in the Kalahari Desert, you don’t want your droëwors and biltong to sweat and go off.
REMEMBER eating and replenishing energy is one BIG FACTOR for successful completion of an event in the desert - pack enough 🙂 For a comprehensive list of MUST-HAVE and NICE-TO-HAVE and also what to avoid items. Check out the article on our KAEM blog

As we move into a changed work environment, hear Andrew’s views on The Code of Practice on Managing Covid and The Prevention and Elimination of Harassment in the Workplace and how they will work in practice.
Prior to the enactment of the 1995 Labour Relations Act, labour law was rigid in terms of obeying rules but now there is now a greater focus on Codes to regulate the standards of behaviour. The Codes rely on self-discipline from employers, as employees can blow the whistle and run straight to the CCMA with any infringement. The Code on Managing Covid includes the issues of testing, vaccination, sick leave, policies and refusers. The Code on Harassment introduces the umbrella term of ‘harassment,’ the law on racist and sexist behaviour and the concepts of ‘bullying’ and ‘workplace bullying.’
Know your Codes: Andrew & Sarah Levy will be running two morning Zoom Webinars on the following dates Session 1: The Code of Good Practice: Managing Covid in the Workplace: Tuesday 31 May 2022 Session 2: The Code of Good Practice on the Prevention and Elimination of Harassment in the Workplace: Thursday 2 June 2022 For more information email cecilia@andrewlevy.co.za or call +27 83 227 0286
As we move into the traditional wage round in 2022, hear Andrew’s take on what is impacting the labour market - notably the war in Ukraine, increased fuel and food prices and the rise in inflation.
How this will affect union wage demands and how employers are likely to respond under the current economic circumstances? What the likelihood of strike action will be in the coming months, what sectors are hotspots for action and why unions are holding out for settlements that are unattainable and often result in long term wage loss.

Do you have questions about living with diabetes in South Africa?
You’re in very good company! Turns out, we all do.
Welcome to South Africans with Diabetes. I’m Bridget McNulty, and in this podcast we’re going to be answering your questions to help you live a healthy, happy life with diabetes.
This is our second season, and I really wanted to focus on the awkward, difficult conversations when it comes to diabetes. The ones we should be having, but aren’t really…
So I asked some really smart people to talk to me about everything from diabetes burnout to diabetes and language, stigma and eating disorders, practical things like heart health and insulin timing, and bigger picture stuff - the diabetes situation in South Africa, the root cause of diabetes.
I learn something new in every conversation.
We’ve also included your comments in each episode because, most importantly, we are a community of people with diabetes who understand what it’s like to live with the condition, every day.
We’re all in this together.

Opportunities in food and waste, starting in the home! [Part 2 of 2]
Guest: Matlou Setati
I love what Matlou says about a culture of caring for the environment, and why is it so had for families to be conscious and responsible.
'I think in most cases, people say your body's your temple. I think we need to adopt the with your environment is your temple". Matlou. This for me is common sense, and we have to strive to be better citizens.
I starts in the home, how we recycle and create opportunities to make a difference further along the waste cycle. We look at this for different angles, and hope to start something in you that enables you to participate in some form or another.
BOUNCE, happy to be talking about sustainability [Part 1 of 2]
Guest: Matlou Setati from CGCSA
Let us take the joinery where food begins, how it travels and gain insights into how we can do better when it arrives at home. We talk about recycling, we look at opportunities in waste, and the challenges farmers have in production and processing. I am keen on developing greater awareness and understanding of the whole journey, opportunities to live more consciously and how we as families need to play our part.
And you will see how, people still have to go without food, even though there is more than enough food to feed the nation three times over. So what's the problem? Listen in as Matlou raises our levels of awareness.
Easy courageous easier when you embrace being different.
A word from Zee.
Giving you a perspective on why I can do this. Where do I get the courage and self confidence to do this? I talk about not fitting in, so being different, and which allows one to do things that others cannot. I always felt I had nothing to lose and I had everything to gain. The starting point was low, and I knew I was on my own. I unpack my own podcast journey with you, every step of the way. I hope to inspire you and help you do your own thing one day...
So, how did you get ready to do the things you do, like this Podcast?
In this podcast I respond to the question around how I do the things I do. I believe I have prepared myself for this day and this journey, since the very beginning of my career at the age of 16. Everything in life is often an accumulation of previous activities, not always directly related, but it is cumulative. You would be surprised at how different people do different things, seemingly unrelated, but can cross over. Right now, do different things, look at the whole picture not just your lane. I love today's youth, they are open, they play and want to do different things. So, many are really set to do wonderful and amazing things in the future.
Special thanks to Callum Kennedy who has done a sterling job of getting me comfortable... I am just too fond of him.

A learning journey conversation with a fellow EMBA student.
In this episode Petro speaks to fellow UCT EMBA student, Gordon Wilson (Achievement Awards Group)
Over the past two years we have been working towards our Executive MBAs through the University of Cape Town's Graduate Business School.
With classes moving on-line due to the covid-19 pandemic there wasn't enough time (for me) to connect with fellow students and hear about their research projects. I decided to interview my fellow students to hear about their research.
In this podcast I ask Gordon about his research, which focused on how purpose is a driver for human behaviour. Gordon tells me more about why he chose this topic, how he did the research and what his major findings were.
He also shares how this research changed him and the way he thinks about purpose. Find out more about Gordon Wilson · Find out more about UCT's EMBA programme

We use words like entrepreneur, and very few as consultant, advisor, contractor, developer, creator and many others.
Even though, doing what you love does not feel like working, you still gotta pay the bills. So how do you straddle? How do you create different sources of income, serve others, earn a living and keep you fire going? We don't solve it all in this episode, but it's a start.
Dikeledi speaks about Vision within a Vision. A nice concept.... one I challenge her on. It is a great idea, to be allowed to have a Vision for your life, and for your Vision to be the enabler of the companies vision. But, show me where that has ever been in a performance or employment agreement. If my job enabled my Vision, would I not make sure I gave it my all, because without my job, I can't achieve my Vision. Be that to educate my children, to do my art, to train and teach others, to uplift my community.
Tell me of a company that does a Vision, and encourages their employees to do their visions, and how the company helps to enable it?

You have the option to choose your own Journey.
Zanele gets to share her thoughts on choices and options along life's journey, bouncing through it all...
BOUNCE was inspired by people I have come across who are trying to follow their passions, navigate this life, whilst accumulating knowledge, expertise and hopefully wisdom along the way. I know that often we are led to think of our lives in a linear path. From university and then from role to role, up the ladder, hopefully to the highest point. But, perhaps we have options to do things that suit us, differently at different times.
If you had to hand your life over to the Universe, surely just like everything in nature, it would not be square or round. It would take all sorts of shapes, colours and sizes. The world has a need for all of us, in our different callings, beliefs, talents and abilities. It is up to you to place yourself in the space that is you at this moment in time... Z
We need to talk. Are there four more chilling words to hear from another person? A spouse, a friend, a doctor, a boss? Four words that tell us we’re about to have a difficult conversation.
The Irish philosopher-poet David Whyte says, the important conversations you don’t have, end up having you. Conversation is the genesis of progress.
My name is Mike Stopforth, and this show is a collection of the important conversations I want to have. Some will be deeply personal, most will be with people I respect and admire, and some will be with people I fundamentally disagree with. But I can promise you they’ll be honest and authentic, as all important conversations should be.
Thank you for listening. Website · Connect with Mike

In this episode I talk to Nonhlanhla Buthelezi-Onverwacht, CEO and Advisory Board Member of Shamwari Consultancy.
I have yet to meet a proper warrior like Nonhlanhla, who literally went into the world wild with curiosity, ambition and bold courage. Each time I engaged with her, I literally felt like I was speaking with someone who in so many ways reflects who I am, and so much more.
When we met, she shared with me that she had made the decision to begin a whole new journey, bringing all her skills and talents together to serve women and societies in rural Kwa-Zulu Natal. As a rural strategist , she delivers hope through the land, building meaningful and sustainable solutions for women, youth and entire communities.
Our conversation gives you a feel and a taste of what crazy purposeful living looks and sounds like. She gives me courage, she teaches me to be fearless, expects it of me actually! So, I hope she does a little of that for you! Connect with Nonhlanhlao

Ironic? How we become old fashioned marketers in modern times.Shortsighted!

Why did we put the theory of Marketing Myopia to bed? Why are we not drilling this into the way we lead with synergy? What is preventing us from becoming marketing visionaries?
Marketing Myopia was expressed in 1960 by Theodore Levitt in the Harvard Business Review. He articulated and used his insight to highlight the short-sighted mindsets of marketers and business leaders. Companies suffered from marketing myopia even prior to the pandemic by using tactics rather than strategy. Today, this erupted into a serious concern in the post-pandemic world where we are witnessing the rise of Digital Marketing Myopia: Creating content debris and increasing digital pollution and being ignorant to assess the present, the future, and the evolving customers and to adapt to their needs and this results in big concerns for the marketing industry as a whole. NOW: we realise Marketing Myopia is far bigger than we could ever imagine.
Unpacking the rise of marketing myopia (Culture, Strategy, Brand, Sales, Green, Digital) They are all shattering our industry, not just a brand.
The University of Johannesburg- Marketing Department unpacks this conversation with Carmen Murray. Deep insights into something far bigger we could imagine?
Want to become a visionary in Marketing and lead a business to success? This is where authentic, logical, and connected conversations begin. Experts vs Experts.

Hello, my name is Jane Dutton.
The most basic, simple, name - and yet I get called everything on the planet. Jean Button is the most common favorite one.
So you can call me whatever you want, but I would really love to be the host of your next Solid Gold Podcast series. I can do serious delivery. I can be fun and witty on demand. But most of all, I can be all your brand needs me to be and I look forward to hosting your series.
I've been in TV and voiceovers for an embarrassingly long time. I sat on a desk for eTV (I didn't fall off though people took bets that that would happen.) I did a travel show for CNN. That was 20 years ago and I was probably about 20 kilos lighter then two. I worked for BBC World and Al Jazeera for 13 years.
I escaped the heat to come back home and I look forward to working with you on your next Solid Gold Podcast, so you can #BeHeard.

In this podcast, we connect with Dr. Kathrin Neumueller to discuss brick-and-mortar retailers who face an increasingly competitive market environment. She argues that frontline employee inspiration is a promising strategy to motivate frontline employees (i.e., employees with regular customer contact) to go beyond role requirements and to drive them to provide superior service quality. While a few retailers (e.g., IKEA, Nespresso, Apple) have recently come to harness the power of inspiration to drive employee performance, most other companies have yet to recognize this approach. Dr. Kathrin’s work provides the first systematic and empirically grounded research into employee inspiration with special consideration of frontline employees interacting with customers at the point of sale.

I have been preparing my whole life for this day here. And it's taken so long to get here. But for me, I needed to be ready. I needed to have in my toolbox, every single thing that I think would be important for me to be able to stand in front of you and to have these conversations. And one of the things that has really signified, or has been part of my life, is my ability to bounce. You know, I have been in so many different environments. In my career, I've been so open-minded, I have been restless, I have been ambitious, I have been adventurous, but I've also been a collector of knowledge.
So when it felt that it was time for me to bounce and find a new space, a new place and new people that will enable me to go to that next level. I did exactly that. If life threw me with different curveballs. I'd hardly ever remember being so distraught, you know, I bounced, and I smiled, and I knew that it was just the beginning of yet another journey.
So I'm so glad that you are joining me, Zanele Morrison, on this podcast journey.

How Humans can Surprise Themselves
Guest: Bryce Goodman, Chief Strategist for Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning at the Department of Defense’s Innovation Unit.
Bryce works at the intersection of developing technologies and emerging societal needs. In this wide-ranging conversation he considers the governance challenges for business leaders as they strive to limit unintended consequences and operate responsible AI systems. He celebrates the work of interdisciplinary teams who bring a range of perspectives and skills to framing the problems to be solved: too often these questions are kicked down the line to programmers and engineers. Bryce is interested not only in the ethics of emerging tech but also in its ethical use – here he tells us how machine learning is being used to prevent illegal fishing, to monitor the health of coral reefs – and most delightful of all – to track the ‘voice’ patterns of whales to understand their grammar and dialect and finally, perhaps, to be able to talk back to them.

And I really wanted to go and find out how they were so successful, what their journey was. And so I was incredibly lucky to go and have this conversation, it was really an opportunity to go and talk to a successful business leader.
In this podcast I share what I learned from Dirk.

Erik Kruger is a prolific author, public speaker, podcaster, YouTuber, video creator, the guy is everywhere. And that's very intimidating to people like me who are in his industry, it also makes it virtually impossible to introduce.
So I'll introduce him like this instead, Erik Kruger is also my friend, he is a person that I've come to know over the last couple of years as a profoundly authentic, accessible, interesting human being genuinely committed to personal well being personal mastery, and to finding ways to change the world for the better. And he really means it.
Erik and I have been meaning to have this conversation for a very long time, and I thought it perfect to insert it towards the end of this Glenlivet original by tradition series.
We talked about Erik's approach to modern leadership and how he helps company leaders, organizations, entrepreneurs, senior business leaders, reconfigure recalibrate their headspace around leadership and around change. We also spoke extensively about Erik's approach to producing content.
And I think there are some incredibly valuable insights and gems in the practical tips, the approaches, the strategies that he shared, not just for individuals who want to build a personal brand, or create the same level of impact and network and influence that Erik has, but also for organizations for brands that want to replicate this kind of success.
So often, we see brands creating really beautiful content, but creating it once and never been able to scale it beyond that. And Erik share some really great insights about how to avoid those pitfalls and mistakes.
Yeah, this is a conversation that I love. It's filled with a lot of insight. It's filled with a lot of great experience. And I trust that you'll enjoy it as much as I did. If you do, please go straight from this conversation and follow Erik online.

A common complaint is poor communication in the workplace - from both sides!
Sarah Gill joins our Host, Vanessa Marks, to discuss Storytelling as an effective way to ensure your message is heard.
Employers complain that their efforts to communicate with employees falls on deaf ears, while the employee will bemoan that the message was never sent.
Often it is not what was said but how it was said that makes someone listen and understand.
Storytelling is a creative and effective method to bridge the communication gap and Sarah Gill shares with us her last 20 years of using creative ways to get the message sent, and received, as intended, acknowledging and addressing diversity at all levels in the workplace.

What started off as "let's give it a go and see what happens" turned into an overnight success... 15 years later!
As a teenage suicide survivor, struggling with bouts of depression throughout my life, as well as suffering with postpartum depression, I know the struggles of running from the shadows. I know what an empty, Dark Pit of Despair looks like.
I'm a small town girl from Polokwani, I'm your typical South African female entrepreneur, a woman who looks for opportunities, who's not scared to take chances and who makes things happen.
And what a journey it has been!
Growing up in a successful family business inspired me to go to the big city where I could make my mark. I started my kinetic practice, and a few years later became co-owner of a health, wellness, and performance facility called The Practice.
I discovered modeling and became the director of ACE Models The Parks, a modeling Academy and deportment school. I'm a stylist and Mrs. Africa Globe, beauty queen and NLP life coach and founder of a digital marketing business.
What really resonates deeply with me, is woman supporting women.
My aim is to empower women to believe in, and to stand up for, themselves. Though women are strong and powerful, they sometimes need to be gently reminded of this.
My name is Greta, I am beautiful. And I am proud to proclaim it.

Dealing with Healthcare Challenges in Nigeria.
Ramatu Abdulkadir (Public Health Supply Chain Expert) is someone who well understands the challenges of getting in-date medicines to the right people at the right time in a pandemic.
She has spent a lifetime grappling at the hard edge of an under-invested in healthcare system in Nigeria.
She compares healthcare to the seamlessness, rigour and innovation of the manufacturing industry - this comparison came home to her as she visited a totally automated forklift factory and returned to ‘still the same old thing’ in a healthcare system that has hardly altered its methods during her whole career. It’s a magical conversation – quite literally so, as she describes how she was able to ‘turn waste into money’.
She is an optimist and a staunch believer in investing in the education of a new generation of supply chain experts to lead change into the future: 17 of her mentees graduated as supply chain experts at the end of 2021.
‘We’re just getting started!’, she says.
Ramatu is a seasoned Public Servant and a recognized expert in Public Health Supply Chain Management systems. As the Executive Secretary/CEO of the Health Supplies Management Agency (KADHSMA), Ramatu led the transformation of Kaduna State Health Supply Chain systems serving over 10 Million People of the State. In addition, Ramatu coordinated and supervised the upgrading of the first government-owned and operated Pharma-grade warehouse valued at around NGN 250 Million.

Listen to Andrew Levy as he discusses why wage differentials are important in the understanding of the issue of pay structures and pay equality.
There are, he says, never disputes about wages only the comparison between wages and it is important to understand how these differences arise and why they can be regarded as fair.
For examples, different industries pay different rates with some being high paying and others low paying. Skilled employees can earn more in most areas, whilst unions can bargain for more for their members. Geographic differentials also play a part.
Larger organisations can pay more and a dangerous job will command more.
In summary, it is this understanding of why people do not have to be paid the same, that leads to an understanding of pay equality and the equilibrating forces that underlie it.

Do you remember your first formal job interview? I do. It's not great memory. I did a horrendous job of representing myself and my enthusiasm for the position I was applying for.
That's understandable if you consider the typical job interview setup. There's a young, uninitiated, nervous person being faced with a panel of influential decision-makers- people who appear to have it all together and literally hold your destiny in the palm of their hands. It's a bit hit and miss - and not necessarily an accurate representation of your capabilities at all.
My guest on the show today felt the same thing. He had this problem in his professional capacity as an industrial psychologist and used that frustration as motivation to create a business that would solve his problem - wamly.io is the result. It's an innovative use of asynchronous video technology to solve a very old problem.
As you know, that's the theme of the series that we're doing the Glenlivet - #originalbytradition is all about showcasing smart solutions to long-standing challenges.

With unemployment now at its highest level in years, the question on everyone’s lips is... "how this can be turned around?"
Andrew Levy discusses his views on the issue of radical labour market reform and the need for strong growth of around 5% over the next decade in order to bring about much needed job creation.
He advocates the scrapping of bargaining councils, the introduction of the strike ballot, and a statutory duty to bargain in good faith with penalties if not adhered to, as well as guidance around the area of union competition.
He recommends limited access to the CCMA depending on screening and length of service, coupled with an active and vigorous policy of awarding costs.
All this hinges of course on government buy-in and the creation of an enabling environment.

Welcome to Episode #10 in a 10-part series on "Parents in the Music Industry" - made possible with funding support from the Music in Africa Foundation, the German Federal Foreign Office, Siemens Stiftung and Goethe-Institut.
Justin Sasman is a musical contractor, a brass player, and an educator at Northwest University in Potchefstroom. He plays in a band called Bombshelter Beast, and in the local orchestra. He's also a dad.
In this episode Justin talks about being selective about the work you take on, the self-esteem that comes from doing what you love (despite what anybody else thinks), remembering what is feels like to be a child, and how developing your craft makes you a better parent.
We also chat about how child-friendly venues could better support musicians who are parents, the importance of maintaining a sense of child-like wonder, and the perspective shift that comes with having kids (hint: all the things we think are important, aren't!)

This is the One-Eyed Man, my name is Mike Stopforth, and today we’re jumping head first into the second half of our #originalbytradition series brought to you by the Glenlivet. We took a short pause to extract and share some highlights from the first five episodes, and of course to give away some premium Glenlivet prizes, so if you missed that, please follow me on Twitter, LinkedIn or Instagram – you’ll be the first to hear about future updates and giveaways.
I’m really excited about this show. It’s hard to think of a better example of entrepreneurs challenging traditional industries with original solutions than my two guests, Sam and Dom Moleta of the Refillery, an eco-friendly, plastic-free grocery store. Both their online and real world offerings have grown significantly over the last few years (which is saying something in itself), in no small part due to a really beautiful brand and product design and a crop of loyal, passionate customers.
The secret behind their success will be obvious when you hear them talk about this project. I was deeply inspired by their vision, intention and work ethic. I’m sure you will be, too. If you’d like to watch the conversation, catch it on my YouTube channel.

The often unchecked exploitation of South Africa’s so-called mineral wealth has destructive effects far beyond the obvious impact on the local environment.
Local communities bear the burden of a wide range of long-term consequences that impact health, society, local economy, and well as food and water security. And as with many other exploitative fields, it is often women who experience these harms most acutely.
Access to land, ownership, tenure and mutually beneficial land stewardship is also often disrupted, impacting on non-mining related livelihoods and local communities’ ability to grow food and engage in land-based economic activity.
The ramifications go further, impacting on, and being impacted by, the global climate crisis. And then there is the macro level aspect of the mineral endowments of the country and continent being sold at a low rate that denies benefit to future generations.
The panel discussion illuminates these often unspoken about dynamics, describing the difficulties and creating a space to envision a different approach that benefits people and planet, both now and in the future. Connect with Robert

Thank you is what qualifies you for the next act of Favour, many people have had great times but the great times have turned into gloomy days because they did not acknowledge the source of the great times, so the one behind it withdraws and turns his back
Thanksgiving should be an addiction, when we become addicted to thanksgiving destiny opens up to us on its own accord.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK:
“Somebody is in the HOSPITAL right now begging GOD FOR THE OPPORTUNITY you have. Don’t you dare go to the depressed. COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS and shake it off.” Paul William Walker IV

it's all about getting your Mind over Mountain....
Guest: Robby Kojetin (Author and Extreme Sports Motivator)
From not landing on his feet, to landing up motivating others to get up on theirs, Robby Kotejin has gone from climbing the roof of the world, to wallowing in the depths of despair. But deciding to pull his two broken ankles up by his bootstraps, came back from the precipice to scale not only the world's highest mountains, but the seemingly insurmountable challenge of climbing out of the pits of depression.
This inspirational story of perseverance has been told by Robby in his book, Mind Over Mountain, and here we get to grips with how when you feel you're at the end of your rope, there's always something there to hold you. Connect with Robby · Mind Over Mountain on Amazon

This conversation between Tracey Camilleri and Enaam Ahmed Ali looks at the world through a gendered lens. Who better to do that than Enaam, 2022’s UN Women’s Representative for Climate Change and Technology? Enaam has spent 2021 talking to women around the world about the way in which climate change is impacting their lives, especially in poorer, developing countries. She talks powerfully about freedom for women – whether it’s the freedom to wear the headscarf, to stay at home and bring up children or to take on a leadership role outside the family - in her view it’s the act of choosing that is the crux of feminism, not what is chosen. In the conversation they range over questions like – what prevents more women now from thriving in tech businesses? What sort of leadership does the world need now? And why have all the corporate dollars sunk into D & I only got us so far? As a pragmatist and an entrepreneur – Enaam looks for action not words. In this podcast, she celebrates the small steps being taken by women around the world to build better foundations for the future.
Enaam Ahmed Ali is a development economist, intrapreneur, innovation manager, activist, and UN Women Representative 2022 for The Netherlands. Everything she does revolves around making people, organizations, and the planet better.

This popular and practical guide for SA Employers, first published in 2010 has been updated in light of the many important developments in our labour law during the last decade.
These include the implementation of the national minimum wage, the changes with regard to labour brokers and fixed term contracts and the introduction of parental leave. It also includes a section on how to handle industrial action, the questions surrounding Covid-19 and the 4th Industrial Revolution. Written in Andrew’s inimitable style, interspersed with his hands-on Levy Laws, and case studies, it concludes with a useful decision making methodology that will enable employers to make better labour related decisions and avoid costly mistakes.
Andrew provides an insightful commentary on the unexpected spate of strikes in the in the fourth quarter of 2021 at a time when the country experienced its highest level of unemployment and job loss – a direct result of the national lockdown - the restrictions surrounding the Covid pandemic and the additional cost incurred by many employers. What can be the motivation behind these strikes be and did they benefit the union and workers in terms of the outcome? Do workers have the same inclination to strike as unions? Have unions changed their negotiation strategies given the constraints experienced by employers and what can we expect in the months to come. And why is the Code of Good Practice : Collective Bargaining, industrial Action & Picketing so important, especially with regard to bargaining in good faith.
Can you compel an employee to have the Covid vaccination?
Find out what Andrew has to say about this topical and sensitive issue.
How South Africa’s Constitution balances the rights of both the employer and the employee. And how the clause with regard to the limitations of these rights goes even further in terms of bypassing some of these protections in the light of higher ideals such as protecting the environment. If an employee decides not be vaccinated, what is the situation with regard to the employer who needs to provide a safe working environment? And finally the question of whether you can suspend and ultimately dismiss an employee for refusing to vaccinate and how you can fairly go about this.

Statistics have shown that marriages that truly work are marriages that have a bound friendship, when a couple are best friends you can expect that marriage to be great despite the challenges they will face. Friendship is the bedrock of a great marriage. In expecting a great marriage one of the key things that must be cultivated is friendship. Even if it didn’t happen at the initial stage of the marriage, I believe couples can intentionally cultivate friendship in their marriage no matter the stage in which their marriage is in.
