#HeritageDay: How Ubuntu shapes the way we build wealth
2 days7 days30 daysBy Industry Show more Search jobs Advertise your job vacancies Subscribe to daily business and company news across 19 industries For generations, Ubuntu has been woven into the fabric of South African life – shaping how we care for family, support our communities and share in one another’s successes and struggles. That spirit of collective care also influences how we think about money.
Ubuntu and money: How our culture of caring shapes way we build wealth
Every Heritage Day, South Africans celebrate the traditions, food, values and stories that make us who we are. Among the most enduring of these is Ubuntu. It is reflected in how we show up for family, support our communities and share both our successes and our struggles. This spirit of collective care shapes many aspects of our lives, including how we think about money. For many South Africans, financial decisions are rarely individual. A salary often supports more than one person.
Learning to adapt to change
Executives leading organisations across public and private sectors are faced with immense challenges in understanding how technology can impact governance and strategy in their organisations.
City joins global community to mark World Diabetes Day
To mark World Diabetes Day, the City of Johannesburg Health Department is hosting an 8km fun walk from Naledi Hall, Soweto on Sunday 19 November 2023. The walk aims to raise awareness of diabetes, promote healthy lifestyles and offer free screening for diabetes, HIV/AIDS and high blood pressure. World Diabetes Day falls on November 14, 2023.

For busty girls: a local guide to finding affordable supportive bras
As someone who has worn an E-cup bra since Grade 11, I am very aware of the never-ending struggle of living in the body of a busty woman. In high school and university, my mom at least paid for my bras so my boob problems were mainly existential (why are they here? What purpose do they serve?). Now I actually have to finance my bras myself. Did you know that certain retailers (ahem Woolworths) charge up to R40 more for the exact same bra if you’re buying DD cup and larger?
We’re listening to Rose Gold a year later, and it still hits the right notes
Every now and then, in comes an artist that oozes so much cool it compels everyone to sit up and take notice. Durban songstress, Shekhinah, is one such artist. Her debut album Rose Gold was like nothing we’d heard out of South Africa, ahd she’s just been nominated for a MTV EMA as a result. The fusion of R&B soul, pop synth and laid back EDM were pure joy so we’ve gone back to give it another listen, a year since it’s release.
Why I Still Buy Hard Copies of All The Things I Love
This past weekend, I went to Musica in search of a CD that had been pulled from streaming sites. While looking for it, I realised I miss the ritual of physically looking through thousands of hard-copy CDs until I find the one I like most and then spending a hundred or so hard-earned rands on it. It got me thinking about how having everything at your fingertips seems great in theory and saves you time and effort in practice but actually robs you of so much excitement.
It’s still July but the AFROPUNK line-up has us ready for New Year’s Eve
The Afropunk Johannesburg line-up has been announced and I want to fast-forward over the next 4 months because clearly, December 2018 is the only the thing that matters now. The music festival returns to Constitutional Hill on 30 and 31 December this year after a successful and muddy run in Joburg in 2017.
Why you won’t catch me sharing a Hollywood appointment on insta stories
I first faced questions surrounding my public hair when I was in university. I came across Eve Ensler’s vagina monologue titled ‘Hair on YouTube’. This was 15 years after Eve Ensler had first performed these monologues but it still rang true and gave voice and affirmation to a discomfort that existed in an unacknowledged part of my mind.
4 reasons why Mariechan deserves her moment in the spotlight
I’ll own up: it’s because of people like me that Idols still has strong viewership. I love good vocal performers. Singing voices offer an opportunity to analyse depth, texture, weight and all the other good stuff that comes with vocal music. Mariechan’s is a voice that sounds like something you spread on a slice of toast. It’s dense and luxurious. That’s why I’ll always be excited to hear she has new music. Here are four reasons why Mariechan deserves the moment she’s currently having.
Why we absolutely adore Anele Mdoda
She was on our screens every weekday for two years on SABC 3, hosting Real Talk with Anele, while also making us laugh and sometimes cry on the 947 Breakfast Club show. Before that, she hosted and sat on panels on a number of TV shows, as well as being one half of the 5FM duo Grant and Anele years ago. Her consistent status as booked and busy is a testament to how much she excels both on the airwaves and in front of the camera. What a rewarding fave.
Would I pursue activism to see Beyoncé? Why yes, I would
Unless you are a member of the hive, you may not understand the very specific and dizzying trauma of having someone you love reject you, world tour after world tour, by telling you-you’re too poor and too far away for her schedule. Our luck has finally changed, and the rumours are confirmed. After over a decade of the Bey-hive begging Beyoncé to come to South Africa and perform, she finally said yes. There is, however, a twist.
Do Durbanites attend the Durban July? And other questions
I’ve heard that native New Yorkers generally never visit the Statue of Liberty. It’s just one of those excessively touristy activities that no one can really justify spending a day coordinating. The same applies for Durbanites and The Vodacom Durban July (or simply The July) – if you’ve been to one, you’ve been to them all. A mixture of dread and excitement fills the city the week of the event.

Scorpion is on-brand for Drake, love it or hate it
Whether you’re jaded by Drake’s well intended pseudo-feminism or you attend the church of Drake purely for the bops, Scorpion sticks to the script of exactly what we’ve come to expect from Drake. After months of teasing us with hit singles and their accompanying videos, Aubrey Graham finally dropped his much anticipated fifth studio album, a 25 track 89 minutes quintessentially Drake album.
