In today's episode, I chat to Vangile Makwakwa, the founder of Wealthy Money, Co-founder of a real estate Podcast called Property Magicians, and a published author, to name a few of the many hats she wears.  Vangile is passionate about helping people heal their ancestral money trauma so that they are able to unlock their inner money guru to be successful in life.

When the subject of money and generational wealth is brought up, most of us experience a range of emotions. So what is generational wealth? Is being 'money smart'  always about money? Or does it also have something to do with one’s upbringing, your emotions/feelings towards money, your traumas, and everything in-between?

Handling money, or money management is more than just saving and setting up your pension or retirement plans or funeral plans. Money is broad and multidimensional. I believe this episode will greatly shift your perspective on money and everything you think you know about money.

What do transitions mean to you? Transitions take many forms, they can happen when you relocate to another city, get a promotion, leave a job because it’s the wrong fit for you, or move to another workplace for a better role and benefits.

However, in today's episode, we discuss the transition when one decides to leave the corporate world entirely because things aren't working out as they may have hoped. What is key to take away from this episode is that change is never easy, but one should always be willing to take the risk and see where it takes them. If where you are does not bring you any joy, look for something else to do and pursue it. Always keep a lifelong learner attitude- learn new skills and keep evolving in everything you do.

In today’s episode, we talk about having a Change Conversation that speaks to how each one of us defines success and fulfillment. Key takeaways from this conversation you can look forward to include, that, we should always practice gratitude and be thankful for what we have, one must learn to live in the moment, celebrate the small goals that we achieve on a daily basis. The small things one accomplishes in life lead to the bigger things in life, like it is often said, “ a journey of a thousand kilometers starts with a single step. “  But over and above that, know that no one is here by mistake, we are all here to contribute to the bigger purpose of why we were created.

In today's episode, I decided to have change conversations with myself. I wanted to share some of my thoughts and I hope this will help someone. I touch on the conversations I wish I had with someone before entering the workplace.  I touch on money, office politics, and visibility in the workplace-  how one must showcase their work and own their work, and that people around you should be able to identify your skills and specialities.

In today’s episode, I speak to Phelisa Mafunda who is an Author and a Financial Wellness Coach helping people manage their finances mindfully. Today we talk about healing the wounds of debt. Many of us are struggling with debt and wondering how we got it. Some of us don’t even remember the freedom of not owing anyone. We discuss how your relationship with money resembles the relationship your parents had with money and the relationship their parents had with money. Your spending habits are deeply rooted into your subconscious and changing them requires time and patience. Being financially healthy and fit is not just about fixing your budget, but changing your entire perspective - the way you see and understand money. Phelisa's book Healing the Wounds of Debt can be purchased on our website @ www.changeconversations.co.za.    Check this podcast out for more on the topic.

In today’s episode, I speak to our special guest Malusi Mbonani . Malusi is a specialist within the Human Resources space, who shared some of his wisdom on office politics. Politics within an organisation are a system that one needs to learn and understand. Politics are not just "dirty" or unethical, one is able to participate in organizational politics ethically, without sacrificing their core values. We delved deeper into explaining power dynamics, the difference between influence and power, and why it is important to partake in office politics otherwise, office politics will “do you”.

In today’s episode, I speak to Nay-lin Machiwana who is in the Recruitment Space. Recruitment is not just about getting a job for a purpose. Recruitment is a complex industry with its own fully functioning ecosystem, at the core of it, is really about fulfilling the entire system. You get to learn new skills, like networking and expanding your network as well as resilience, as one encounters a challenge that tests their limits on a daily basis. It is a rather interesting topic, because there's more to recruitment than just allocating jobs to people. Being a people's person, a person who loves interacting with people is an important trait if one intends to thrive in the business of recruitment.
