She is soft spoken but loud when it comes to what she stands for. I met her in 2019 at a black women hosted Table talk and she was sitting right opposite me with the most beautiful smile and bald head. In our conversation we realized we both had platforms that shared conversations with women, and so we kept in contact since. So today I am excited to bring you our conversation which we both had been planning for a while.

She’s an amazing woman who acts as she preaches, today I am in conversation with Phumeza Langa

Phumeza is a strategic communications consultant, speaker and freelance writer. She is the host of Twitter chat and spaces #SistaHoodHour, established in 2017 and #SistaHoodHourConversations podcast that was started in 2020. Phumeza’s career spans over 10 years including working with corporate and consumer clients, within the agency environment as well as being part of a corporate marketing and communications team.

In our conversation today we talk about her own journey with Sisterhoodhour, how the platform she created, and build become part of her self-discovery journey and even more. She shares about her personal journey with understanding self-first, her motherhood experience and the importance of embodying the aspirations we often hold for our girl child to also see lived out by their mothers especially in spaces we hope to change the narrative.

This is my conversation with Phumeza Langa. Do enjoy listening.

Today’s episode comes in between the series because it’s long overdue. It’s been a while since I brought you a new episode with Omphile for our Books Chat and Chill episodes. We in fact recorded this episode in April and it was meant to go live in May but life happened in between and here we are in June hence it just couldn’t wait any longer. This is the second episode.

On this episode we sat down to talk our experience reading The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz, at some point while re-listening to our conversation I had to pull for a box of tissue because this conversation felt like a reminder I needed to hear, and I know for sure it will land with someone too. Omphile also says it herself that this one is one she might come back in future for the reminders here.

This is my conversation with Omphile, do enjoy listening/watching this episode and remember to share your review.

In today's episode with my guest, we discuss a topic that is pretty close to my heart which is embracing our unique essence. My guest today is an incredible woman who is supporting visionary Women of Color to remember their soul mission and find the courage to pursue it, so that they can increase their abundance and social impact. My guest today is Elyse Preston!

Elyse is a Soulful Business Mentor and Healing Guide. Her work operates at the intersection of leadership, spirituality, community building and entrepreneurship. Her mission is to support leaders, changemakers and visionary entrepreneurs to experience deep healing and support, so that they can cultivate communities, services, and experiences that center radical healing and liberation. She uses the modalities of yoga, mindfulness, human design, and conscious business to support clients in seeking their purpose, creating community, and living more connected lives.

In our conversation today we talk about her own journey with healing, some of her childhood memories and when she first knew that something was different about her. We dive into understanding Human Design and the freedom that comes with finally realizing how unique you are and that you do not have to fit the mold of your conditioning, society's expectations, this is a system that has been helping me a lot in my own journey with self and lastly we talk about entrepreneurship.

This is my conversation with Elyse Preston.

Today I am in conversation with Siphilile Khumalo who I’ve had the pleasure to work with on our last year’s retreat with Among the Lilies. Siphilile is a psychology student at Wits University and the Founder and Director of Zelanga Africa. She is a certified yoga and meditation teacher trained at Nature Yoga Sanctuary (Chicago). She felt a compelling need to obtain a psychology degree after returning to her birth country due to a high prevalence of mental health issues in South Africa. Her mission is to provide clinical care and healing to those she is called to serve.

Siphilile has a natural talent for understanding people. She has been working with different NGOs in both South Africa and Chicago on inclusive & curated wellness programs aimed at making wellness accessible to all. Her belief is that people can move from surviving to thriving with proper care, support, and deep healing. 

In our conversation we go through her own journey, we dive into the awareness of the ego, the importance of embracing the dark and the light side in us, and more about money conversation and welcoming the energy of abundance as wellness leaders and women of colour. There are many moments we found ourselves connecting through laughter.

Welcome to the first episode of a series I have created where I interviewed women who I have been inspired by their work, their healing journey and the way they hold space. In this series I uncover ways in which the work that they do has been part of reclaiming self and how it expanded beyond self to being of service to others.  

Today I am in conversation with Vuyo Khumalo who is a behavioral money coach and Founder of Money EQ. I was divinely connected to Vuyo through this platform and I have been so blessed by her work.  

With over 7 years’ experience working in financial services regulation as a financial analyst and passion for human behavior and helping people uncover their greatest potential. Vuyo married her background in finance with her passion for people and became a Money Coach.  

In our conversation we talk about her own journey, how her pursuit to finding her own freedom lead her to the work that she does now, how important it is to understand the root of our money stories first and giving it language.
