In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Yonela Nongwe Mneno — founder of Ndiyazazi - I am Enough, a movement rooted in the powerful declaration “I Know Myself.” From her beginnings as a nurse to becoming a founder, speaker, radio host, and community mentor, Yonela takes us through a deeply personal and empowering journey of purpose, pain, and perseverance.

We talk about what it really takes to build a purpose-led brand in South Africa, the emotional weight of entrepreneurship, and the importance of evolving boldly — not just for ourselves, but for the generations after us.

This is more than a business story — it’s a story of legacy, sisterhood, and spiritual conviction.

How selling oranges sparked a legacy of entrepreneurship

What women in business truly need — beyond the boardroom
