Nonhle Thema on Losing It All and Finding Herself Again

✰ ABOUT ✰

In this week's episode of According To B, I sit down with the iconic Nonhle Thema—a woman whose name is etched into the early fabric of South African pop culture.

In this raw and powerful conversation, Nonhle opens up like never before, taking us through her meteoric rise to fame, the pressures that came with it, her very public fall, and the infamous social media meltdown that followed. But this episode is not just about the fall—it's about growth, accountability, healing, and transformation.

Nonhle shares how those deeply human experiences shaped the woman she is today and the woman she continues to become. From red carpets to rock bottom and back, her story is a testament to resilience, reinvention, and what it means to truly own your narrative.

✰ MEET OUR CO-HOST ✰

After a period away from the spotlight, Nonhle has made a significant comeback, embracing a more purpose-driven path. She now leads manifestation seminars, sharing her journey and the power of aligning with one's purpose.
