An #AdzeUgah Film, what did Chris say “if you’ve worked with him, congratulations. If not, I’m so sorry.”
Sierra’s Gold, coming soon 🔜 🎥🫶🏽
Such an honour and joy to share this work with you. 🥹🙌🏾 #newfilm #film
#flashbackfriday to the first Wanda World Festival. Pausing to recognise this work, this gift, the people & parents, the children and the everlasting miracle of WANDA. Pausing to say, thank you, I’m so grateful. 😍🎉
Aah this story cover on @mailandguardian re #SierrasGold win and my body of work read like an actual love letter. 🤍
So generous & heartwarming I’m now referring anyone who asks for my bio to the article. Get it right, the Mail & Guardian says: I’m a “multi-hyphenate of note…” a “scholar, storyteller and star…” poised to leave a legacy.
Hand on heart, thank you for the feature Zingisa Mase, really warmed my heart. ✨🙏🏽🥹🎉
Happy #mothersday you great source of life. Thank you, for all the way you give and love. ❤️

“How precious are your thoughts of me Oh God.
How vast is the sum of them, if I were to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand in the sea.”
— Psalm 139
A reminder that your life is an actual miracle, 🤍✨.
#love #mothers
humdrum /ˈhʌmdrʌm/ — is an open letter to the people who’ve only ever been strong. Those who’ve touched the centre of their own sorrow but are now too afraid to introduce this version, when it isn’t yet fading or fixable. Those who square their load neatly so no one ever has to know how heavy it is to carry. It is a reminder that “rarely, if ever, are any of healed in isolation.” Rather we must come into the open, let the love pour into the wound, lest we shrivel and close.
Congratulations @ele_lwani and @shonisani_m and entire @thase_afrika on birthing this stirring story.
Thank you for the WANDAful opportunity to facilitate this conversation, inviting a special reflection on mental health, care and community with thee most awesome audience.

Growth is seeing it sooner.
What is your life already telling you—right now—that doesn’t need another week, another year, another decade before you act?
Can you feel your gut speak? Do you hear your truth? Do you listen to your body tell you… or do you wait for it all to explode before you see it for what it is. Because your life is always speaking.
An invitation to deepened discernment.
Wow! 🏆🎬

Reminder: Your romanticisation of life is not frivolity.
It soothes that indefatigable part of the spirit.
Your waking up after a difficult evening,
dressing up and going on under impossible circumstances, your pause….
to appreciate a well plated meal,
noticing the dappling light between leaves, that’s not frivolty. 🍃
All the things that appear unnecessary,
are in fact quite necessary.
Making the ordinary beautiful amid the stark dualities of life. It’s that, that makes our time here mean something a little more. ✨❤️
