When Women Rise, We All Rise: Honoring SA’s Legacy & Shaping Our Future

Loading player...
In this stirring edition of Winning Women Wednesday, Katie Mohamed and Sam reflect on the meaning behind South Africa's Women's Month — far beyond hashtags and holidays. From the legendary 1956 march of 20,000 women to today’s digital activism, they unpack how the legacy of iconic leaders like Lillian Ngoyi, Albertina Sisulu, and Charlotte Maxeke lives on in the actions of everyday women.
This episode is a heartfelt tribute to the seen and unseen heroines — from domestic workers and nurses to young coders and activists. Katie calls on listeners to light a candle, share a name, and move “her story” forward. Plus, she shares exciting details about her brand-new show, The Influence Equation, launching tonight!

✨ "You're not just part of the story — you are the story."
🎧 Tune in to be inspired, challenged, and called to rise.
