Sarah Robyn Farrell is many things – a musician, an eco-communicator, a writer, and an activist.

Her debut single, ‘Love in our Hearts’, certainly aims to heal the world from its many issues in the most simple and honest way.

Armed with a ukulele and a strong will to use her voice for good, Sarah explains the motivation behind this, her first single:

"Love in our hearts’ is about recognising our shared humanity in a time of increasing social tension and ecological decay,” says Sarah. “It speaks to the fact that most people have a lot to unlearn, while still having the ability to love, and to change. It also speaks to the fact that ‘love’ as we currently understand it, may need to be redefined to include aspects and ideas that can lead to real positive change. This kind of revolutionary love could help us save ourselves and restore our home planet.”

The hall is decorated with bright streamers. Pop music fills the room, beckoning people to dance. Young students adorned in custom-made gowns take the hand of their well-dressed dates.

In South Africa, a matric dance is the first time many pupils are made to feel special. But not all can afford the occasion. This was apparent to design duo Fagin Hardine and Adri Andrews of Paarl. Wanting to provide for the youth of their community, they decided to honour the final-year students in style.

Hardine and Andrews founded their clothing brand, Ke’lab, in 2017. After noticing a number of matriculants were unable to purchase their own outfits, the small business joined forces with The Giving Hand to establish The Matric Drive. “By designing for these students, we’re able to create beautiful and long-lasting memories,” Hardine says. Sketching, stitching, and hemming away, the team gifted garments to hard-working matriculants. “It’s more than just a gown,” Andrews says. “It’s a celebration of academic achievement.”

His latest single with Craig Lucas is all about embracing your 'Wierdo', being okay with not fitting in and just being 100% you!

This week on our 'Mindful Living' segment - Danny and Izelle chat about sleep, and how you need to be getting enough of it!

Ayushi was born in India but spent her childhood in Nigeria and moved to South Africa with her family at the age of 13.

After growing up near the East Rand of Johannesburg, she moved to LA, and the rest, is history!

The year 2020 saw Ayushi making her American television debut, as the alien character “PEL” on CBS’s TV series – ‘STAR TREK : PICARD’, alongside Sir Patrick Stewart and Allison Pill. Chhabra's role in the first season of the show was a major departure from previous work and required her to go through hours of intense hair and make-up to transform her into the character of a pregnant Romulan (alien).

Every Monday - Danny and Brent Lindeque get together to share some of the best stories from his "Good Things Guy'!

This week, you will smile! Listen here:

Due to an overwhelming response, Converse has doubled their pledge from R1-million and declared a R2-million pledge to the #KickTheDebt campaign.

The focus of the #KickTheDebt campaign is to try and alleviate even a small portion of the result of generational economic depression. Converse recognises and understands the need to back the South African youth and the campaign aims to make a difference as education is prohibitively expensive, and as a result, student debt is incredibly high. The issue of student debt is a prominent issue South African youths face, with an increasing need for the issue to be erased.
