Then, we tackle one of the most hotly debated topics on the internet right now: What exactly makes a "high value man" in South Africa? If you think being high value is simply about having a high income, you might need to rethink your definition.

Welcome back to Seated with Lebo & Thato! In this episode of our "Awareness" series, we’re unpacking the power of small, consistent efforts and how they can completely change your trajectory. We get real about men’s mental health, the overwhelming pressures of dating and business, and why finding a supportive community is everything.

Instead of asking "how are you," we ask what is actually giving us energy right now. We dive into our new journey with biohacking, why we are protecting our energy from old toxic habits like clubbing, and why redefining success to mean time and health is the ultimate goal. If you are going through a tough time, pull up a chair—you aren't alone in this.
