On this episode we chat with content marketer and entrepreneur Dr. Mo Shehu (Phd) on understanding our career path. We also touch on ways of monetizing our skills and knowledge and the importance of not losing focus as we climb the success ladder.

012 Mental Health in the Workplace
Mental health is a state of being psychologically and emotionally well.  Research estimates that 1/3 of the South African population suffers from a mental illness. Only 5% of the overall department of health budget contributes to mental health in South Africa. To exacerbate the matter, our country also has minimal/limited mental health care facilities. Mental health issues in the workplace can affect employees as well as the organisation itself. Poor mental health in the workplace can negatively impact an employee's productivity, engagement with coworkers and the physical capability and daily functioning. On this episode we scrutinize how mental health may affect us in our work spaces. We also talk and share coping mechanisms of how to maintain your sanity in the workplace.

008 Acceptance.
“The truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself or the situation and unless you realize that the situation is over, you cannot move forward” - Steve Maraboli. Peace of mind comes from acceptance. If you cannot change it, learn to accept it and keep it going. When we speak of acceptance we're not talking about giving up. Acceptance is acknowledging and embracing your present experience whilst being fully aware of your reality. If we teach ourselves to accept things or situations sooner we will learn to be more open to challenges in life and not be frightened by them.

004 The Road to Financial Wellness
Bumpy, curvy, uphill, potholes! These are some of the signs you can expect on your journey to achieving financial freedom. It's important that we design our own maps, our own routes and decide where the road will lead us.

003 Let's talk "black tax"

Urban Dictionary defines black tax as the extra money that black individuals are expected to give every month to support their less fortunate family and extended families. Trevor Noah says in his book Born a crime: “My mother calls it black tax because the generations who came before you have been pillaged, rather than being free to use your skills and education to move forward, you lose everything just trying to bring everyone behind you back up from zero.” On this episode we unpack the term black tax:

  • Is it an obligation or a choice? 
  • How does it affect our relationships, friendships and social lives? 
  • How do we or how can we manage our families’ expectations?
  • How do we set and communicate boundaries?
  • How can we change the narrative?
  • How does it affect us emotionally and mentally?
  • How can we cope with the issue while managing our finances well?
