Quite simply, Ubuntu can be summarised as "I am because we are." Steeped in African culture, it is a philosophy that recognises that I can't be the best version of me without involving others. It recognises that we live in a world of interdependance.

Ubuntu is completely counter-cultural to the way we are expected to live our lives in the Western world. It questions the validity of the concept that life is all about what I achieve by myself. It debunks the myth that life is all about measuring our success through comparison to others rather than what we can collectively achieve together.

We think you will find this a fascinating insight that will change your perspective on how you measure your success at work, in relationships and with parenting.

You will finish this episode and be left contemplating who is on your "team."

Ubuntu, it is a wonderful way to live your life.
