Welcome back to another episode of ASIAS, with your girl, Sis G.U

This episode felt like a point in recent time where I finally had the opportunity to speak on matters of the heart. Observing where I've come from and also where I'm going.

There are certain things and behavioral patterns that once were a part of my itinerary that I don't carry anymore. Certain habits that I would use for different aspects of my life are now far away from my reach, as I record this episode for you, today. This is all in unison with the frontal lobe development phase that has happened in my life.

For everyone, their times of development are different, but it all moves the same. We are so afraid of change that we are blinded by the nature of life and the inevitability of change. It needs to happen, for us to get better. It needs to happen, for us to grow. Ultimately, it needs to happen, for us to properly receive the blessings due to us, in the near future.

Today, I am joined by the CEO of Smile Foundation, Tarri Parfitt.

Smile Foundation is a South African non-profit organization dedicated to providing comprehensive healthcare for children and families affected by facial conditions and burns. For over 25 years, we have transformed the lives of more than 5,000 children and their families.

In partnership with 15 academic hospitals across South Africa, Smile Foundation are committed to restoring smiles by providing life-changing facial reconstructive surgeries and treatments to children in underserved communities.

This conversation is one that I am honored to have, as we shed some light on the experiences that Smile Foundation has been a part of, being a NPO that is super committed to giving children, who are affected with a facial disability, the help they need in order to live a life worth a million smiles!

Welcome back to ASIAS, with your girl, Sis G.U

Preparing for the promise is something that we all have to do. If we are fully transparent with ourselves and each other, this is a concept and practice that is hard to do. In a world where mistakes are a guarantee and experiences either grow or break us - the first thing we always hope for is instant solutions. When we pray to God, we expect instant answers and blessings as well.

But, what do we do and how do we move when our requests are delayed or denied for a better plan that God has for us? How do we remind ourselves to be firm in the faith and move with confidence? The confidence that God has and will never forsake us?

Join me as I open up about preparing for the promise. The promise that God will change our lives for the better. Beyond our wildest dreams. This episode is dear to me, as it speaks to a season in my life where a lot of learning and adapting had to be done. I hope there are gems for you to take, as you continue building your spirituality and relationship with the Lord!

Everything will be yours, in due time. God will make it happen.

Yes, Genge.

It is that time again where I am joined by my best friend, my ride or die, my sister! I am joined by the incredible Nosi Nyatsumba.

This is just those episodes where we check in and chat. No format, no structures. Just a genuine and fruitful conversation between two sisters who have a lot to share and catch up on.

You know the feeling when two great friends finally see each other after a very long time? That feeling is what sums up the vibe and feel of today's episode. I am joined by my dear friend, Nathi Fani.

Fasting is a concept often spoken about within the forms of spirituality. In the same nature, it is still a practice that is hard to master/apply in one's life. We always think about the most basic definition of fasting - but in this episode, Nathi & I really dig in deep into this incredible and life changing experience of fasting & prayer through the experiences and lessons that we're going through/went through.

I invite each and everyone of the Genge to lend an ear to this episode. Whether you're familiar with fasting or not, I definitely guarantee that there are beautiful gems to take from this episode, to help you grow your connection and relationship with the Lord!

First and foremost, compliments of the new year to the Genge. May God bless your year in ways that you cannot imagine. May everything you invest your time into, bring forth results of success and prosperity.

In this episode, I am joined by my sound engineer & music producer, VINO.

The idea, or theory of 'Closing the Door' can mean a plethora of things, depending on where your life is and what you want to change. For me, it really is centered around embracing this new chapter of life that I've stepped into. I reflect, very candidly about my experiences in 2024 and the lessons I've learned.

What makes this episode really special, is that there was no preconceived idea of how the conversation will go. It was a much needed conversation in which there are gems shared from myself and VINO, which I am sure that the Genge can incorporate into 2025.

Allow yourself to step into the new year with a free spirit, letting go of the baggage of the previous year. In order to receive new blessings, you need to first make space. Get rid of what's hindering you. Be honest with yourself on what you want to change and pray to God, to anoint your journey. This year is all about being the best you that you can be!

Welcome back to another episode of ASIAS, with your girl, Sis G.U.

Yes, Genge! This episode is a special one, as I'm joined by my fellow content creator, artist and multi-faceted friend, Nompumelelo Lee Ndlovu.

When we speak of content creation, it's rare to hear people speak about how purpose based it is. In the age of social media and entertainment, it's easy to undermine the process of content creation because of how much content is out there. The idea of oversaturation can feel overwhelming - but one thing is for sure: The best content you can create, that people will gravitate towards, needs to be unapologetically YOU & surrounding the things you love. No matter what medium of content or art that you find yourself creating, the process always requires you to be vulnerable, honest and unbiased with yourself - in order to create the best content that you can. This phenomenon is not to be understated, as it involves all sections of you. The spiritual, emotion, physical and mental sections of yourself.

In this perspective, we were able to touch on the factors that arise when creating, how to deal with those moments (whether good or bad) and the overall meaning of really understanding why you've been given the gift to create. From both of our experiences, I know that the Genge will have a vast amount of gems to keep - as this conversation reaffirms, educates and inspires us to create art, from the heart!

This episode is centered around my trip to London and my experiences during my ten day stay. When you're able to travel and see the world, not only are you exposed to the new landscapes and activities around - you're also exposed to a different change of cultural and communicative climate.

It is in these moments that I was able to draw up comparisons between my time in London against my life, here in South Africa. In these differences, came a lot of appreciation for where I've come from and the path in which I am currently travelling in. It is an experience in which I wish, for each and everyone in the Genge!

Above all, I hope you have some gems to take from this fun-filled episode. May your October be a prosperous and beautiful month.
