I started using a range of organic soap from Khoelife. That was until my daughter had a chemical burn from one of the baby soap products. The product was marketed for babies. The incident happened in July and I’m still waiting for a resolution! Yvette Abrahams kept giving me the run around. Initially, she accepted […]
Look to this day, for it is life. The very life of life. In its brief course lie all the verities and realities of your existance. The bliss of growth. The glory of action. The splendour of achievement. Are but experiences of time. For yesterday is but a dream and tomorrow a vision. But today, […]
For every action there is an equal but opposite reaction. With this in mind, I’ve been monitoring my site statistics quite closely. I only have one listen for my brand new podcast. This is worrying.

It would be so lovely to go on holiday to a place where the colour of my skin isn’t an issue. It’s not really about the colour of my skin, per se. I could pass for white. But I have been classified as coloured. This comes with a burden of stereotypes that has proven cumbersome, […]
I’m standing on the cusp of greatness. My destiny. The reason I was put on this earth. Wait…is that too much pressure? Probably! But how else will I aspire to keep stepping one foot forward?!
