Your car isn’t just a way to get from A to B it’s a moving billboard of your personality. From flashy sports cars to reliable hatchbacks, people start assigning stories to you the second you pull up: “They must be rich… or just love attention… or maybe they’re super practical.”…
Parenting isn’t just a role, it's a sacred duty tied to lineage, ancestors, and balance. Traditionally or in African spirituality we often speak about the wounds carried by children of absent parents, the emotional and spiritual gaps they grow up with. But on Make It Make Sense, we’re shifting the…
There’s an unspoken rule in social circles: who you’re seen with can shape how you’re seen. From “birds of a feather flock together” to “keep company that reflects your level,” friendships can start to feel like strategy instead of connection. But let’s be honest—are we choosing people who genuinely align…
This weekend, the Basketball Africa League returns to South Africa for its sixth season, bringing together world‑class basketball, top African talent, and electrifying entertainment.

The discussion reflected a noticeable cultural shift—where traditional milestones such as marriage are no longer seen as the singular goal. Increasingly, individuals are prioritizing peace, emotional stability, and personal growth over societal expectations.
A reflective and relatable conversation exploring generational conflict and emotional inheritance. Many listeners resonated with the idea of being expected to carry forward unresolved family tensions they had no role in creating. The discussion highlighted how long-standing disputes—whether between relatives, friends, or within communities—often get passed down as unspoken obligations…
PMS and PMDD are often whispered about, dismissed as “just mood swings,” yet they carry real biological weight and emotional depth.

For Pro Tip this week, we thought to take a look at the First Home finance grant- Apparently the government has always offered a subsidy that could help you buy your very first home… reduce your bond… even help with your deposit. The question is: how does it actually work,…
There’s a moment before anything big happens, before the new job, the business launch, the relationship, the move — where your plans are still soft, still forming, still yours. And in that moment, a question lingers: do you share it, or protect it? Some people believe what’s meant for you…
Let’s get into something real, something that lives right at the intersection of culture and corporate life. In a country as rich and diverse as ours, spirituality shows up in many forms — from church on Sunday to ancestral callings that don’t clock out at 5pm. But what happens when…
War might look like chaos on the news missiles, drones, cities under siege but believe it or not, even war has a rulebook. Right now, with conflicts raging in places like Gaza, Ukraine, and Sudan, questions about the laws of war are back in the headlines. Hospitals bombed, civilians caught…
In many communities, going to university is seen as the ultimate path to success. It’s not just about getting a qualification …. It represents hope, sacrifice, and the dreams of an entire family. But leaving university doesn’t always mean failure. For some, it’s a turning point that leads to a…
Sometimes our words spill out faster than our wisdom can catch them. Psychologists say oversharing can be a quiet trauma response, a subconscious attempt to feel seen, safe, or understood. When past pain blurs the line between vulnerability and exposure, we may reveal more than we intended. To unpack this,…
We’re always hearing comparisons between men’s sport and women’s sport who gets more support, more funding, more attention. But what if instead of comparing… we started mixing things up? Imagine if some sports actually combined men and women on the same team. Which sport would be the most fun if…
The modern workplace can feel like a strange stage where personalities perform different roles. For many women, there’s an unspoken rulebook: be pleasant, be accommodating, be the one who keeps the harmony. But leadership often rewards decisiveness, visibility, and a willingness to speak up. In her book Nice Girls Don't…
South Africa’s workplace rulebook may soon get a significant refresh. The Minister of Employment and Labour, Nomakhosazana Meth, has published a set of new labour Bills for public comment that could reshape work hours, parental leave and worker protections across the country.
