“You’ve heard the saying, ‘beauty is only skin deep.’ Well… the beauty industry has turned that into a multi-billion-dollar reality.

SINGLE AND WONDERING WHY?
“Why am I not married?”It’s a question so many women have asked—and have been asked—over and over again. It’s gotten to the point where the idea that a woman could actually be happy without a husband isn’t even part of the conversation.For a lot of women, the thought of never getting married feels scary. Almost like something is wrong if it doesn’t happen.But here’s something worth asking:“Do I actually want to be married?”Not should I be… not when will I be… but do I really want it?It’s a different kind of question—and it might lead to a very different kind of answer..

THE MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS YOU CAN'T SEE
I had a long and productive interview with Clinical Psychologist Kelebongile Lebo Mojanaga-Masilele on the increasing number of children struggling with mental health issues.The Mental Health Crisis You Can’t SeeIn this episode, we’re opening up the conversation on children’s mental health.Why are so many kids struggling? What signs are we missing? And how can we show up better as parents, caregivers, and mentors?They are carrying things we don’t always notice.They laugh, they play, they show up—but underneath, many are hurting in ways we can’t see.Anxiety, fear, pressure to be perfect… it’s all there, behind the smiles and screen time.Let’s talk about the things that matter—the stuff that doesn’t always come up at bedtime or in the car, because sometimes the quietest kids are the ones screaming for help.
"Life is full of twists, and I’ve embraced them all.Motherhood came later for me, and with it, a fresh perspective on the world.Over coffee, I chat about family, relationships, and the issues that matter—not just to me, but to the future my child will grow up in. Let’s talk, reflect, and find meaning in the journey together."
