At a very young age, my family went through an incredibly traumatic experience. Not understanding the implications of that as a young child, this influenced many negative decisions in my life, leading to self-sabotage. After 30 years of repeating the same pattern, I decided to speak about it and get help during this journey. I realised how powerful the mind is, and that communicating and talking is the first step of this ladder to success. I'm Sean Davey. Welcome to Wholeful, where wholeness can be found in being grateful.

My grandfather owned a trading store in a small village in Newcastle where he sold a variety of products. I have fond memories of being awakened by Coca-Cola and Albany bread trucks delivering their products. I was about 8 years old and I was already very brand conscious. I can still picture the captivating Mobil Gas advert featuring the red flying horse. I was drawn to that ad, and as I grew older I realised that my affinity for that brand and that of Coca-Cola was not coincidental. There was science to it. This piqued my curiosity leading me to pursue my in-depth study all the way to Masters level. Eventually, I founded my brand leadership company. I am Bongi Bako. Welcome to Brand Boss, a podcast where we engage with conversations with esteemed brands and brand builders to help you build robust brands that will endure for the next 100 years.

I remember the first time I noticed that women get treated a little differently at work. I was six months pregnant and running out of breath to the office. Late, as usual. Visibly pregnant, I asked for a permission slip to park closer to the building. But I was told that I needed a handwritten note from my gynae. Awks, I know. But it was then that I knew that the person who I needed help from would never understand what it meant to compete at work while sleep-deprived and managing a household. Life can leave you on a sour note, you know, but it doesn't have to stay that way. Welcome to Suwah Notes, the podcast that has uncomfortable conversations with working women about gender inequality; the go-to place to keep you empowered for any dinner conversation that matters.

It was the Wolfsburg Questionnaire that did it. The Wolfsburg Questionnaire is a list of some 150 questions sent by one bank to another on their initiatives to curb money laundering. Technically, it is supposed to reveal just how compliant the financial institution is that you're working for. But that is only one example of our global efforts to stamp out money laundering. The reality is that money laundering continues to grow exponentially and collusion, corruption, and confusion are only getting more sophisticated. Welcome to The Laundromat, the podcast that talks to funding more or better initiatives to stamp out money laundering by applying good minds, young minds, controversial minds, and professional minds to this problem. You will be contributing to a more equal world where not only the rich are rich.

She was eight years old, the phone rang. The news broke, so did she. Her idol, her everything, her father - just died. She watched her mom collapse from sheer shock. Overwhelmed by emotions far greater and bigger than her, she stepped outside. Not a tear. She didn't know how to feel, how to cope, and how to articulate. She didn't recognise this pain. That was the day she lost her voice. And today is the day I choose to talk about it and use my story, the story of so many, to empower others with the tools and means to be more than just 'okay'. Welcome to Rediscovered, the podcast that talks to existing authentically and a no-bullshit approach to survival to empower you to unapologetically thrive.

They say once a horse breathes on your soul, your life is changed forever. I don't remember the first time a horse breathed on me, but I do remember the magic and the absolute conviction that something I could not live without. It is something I've been in pursuit of ever since. Monty Roberts famously said, "The horse will tell you" and I have found that grabbing mane and trusting the horse has led me to the most incredible people, places, and experiences of my life. Welcome to the Louw Flyer, the podcast that talks to horse enthusiasts everywhere about the magic of the horse, so that you can also fall in love with the stories of our sport.

I remember my grandmother taking me to town with her. We would have lunch together at a posh restaurant called the Grand Café. We would sit by the booth which had the most sun, so it was always warm. We chatted for long, laughed a lot, and she listened with love and great interest. I felt heard, seen, as well as nourished in that time. I've carried that warmth with me throughout my life and realize that the moments with our elders are like a wisdom blanket. Welcome to the Grand Café, which talks to the elders of our communities about the best and most challenging times of their lives, so that we can build it into the sunshine of our future.

When I discovered writing and storytelling for the first time, I was around 10 years old when my mom brought out my gran's big old green typewriter. You know the one with those big, heavy, clanky keys that you really had to hammer down hard on? And I remember feeling excited and inspired to create stories. That led me to discovering the word 'processor' when I used to join my mom at her offices during school holidays. And there I would dream up love stories inspired by the Sweet Dreams novels that I would read as a teenager. Little did I know that then this would lead me into the storytelling space, but not for myself. For my clients. My strategic public relations business, Mantis Communications, was born out of this love for words and the desire to share the stories of others that inspire, educate, and create change. In my many years of business and dealing with inspirational thought leaders, I've realized that the human-centred side of business is where the magic really lies. Welcome to the Mantis monologues, a podcast that promises to give you life-changing insights from leading CEOs, authors, entrepreneurs, and motivational speakers so that you can gain a deeper understanding of yourself in order to build a better business.

I was in London in 2003, attending a mobile gaming conference. At the time I was working for a new international motorsport championship, and I believed it may be an opportunity to have a mobile racing game. Bearing in mind, this was still during the feature phone era, smartphones were yet to be a thing. I left the conference convinced that content would be vastly consumed over the internet, out of the home, and on multiple devices. Whilst this has proven to be the case, many video-on-demand streaming businesses have failed or have yet to reach profitability. Why?

My name is Tsholo. I'm always having conversations with my brothers aka friends on our WhatsApp group. And with every check-in, it ends up being a competition of who consumed the best, most expensive alcohol in copious amounts, or which brother got to the hottest chick over the weekend. Mind you, most of them are married family men with kids. Seldom nothing that contributes to us being healthy present fathers, brothers, uncles, comes to the fore in these conversations. I mean, these are who our fathers and grandfathers used to be. How do we break this vicious cycle? What are we running from that's making us use such unhealthy coping mechanisms? Welcome to The Man Cave, the podcast that talks to the young black men about conversations that men crave so that we can change the narrative and break generational curses.

Hi, I'm Nairobi Twala. Throughout my childhood, I've always been constantly aware of the world around me, constantly being exposed to the stories of those who came before me and aspire to cultivate change as a result of the lessons learned from those stories. From freedom fighters to media personalities, I probably know someone who matters to someone and here, their stories will be shared. Welcome to the eight-twelve, the podcast that talks to the youth of today about African history through intergenerational conversations so that we can learn from the past and inspire the future.

I remember my early years in Sri Lanka, where the serene footsteps of Buddhist monks contrasted with the hooting and chaos of daily life. After 20 years in the UK, I chose to live in Southern Africa, and it was there, on the cow dung floor in the Marico, that I reconnected with the sanctuary of stillness, I found what I had always sensed the inner freedom offered by ancient wisdom traditions. This led me to research and share these timeless practices, which bring us into compassionate connection with ourselves, each other, and the natural world. Having lived in places where inequality is visible and visceral, my first book explored how to cultivate mindful awareness and compassion for social engagement. I am Lucy Draper-Clarke and this podcast takes the next step - conversations with others who have committed to the inner work required for outward impact. We discuss how to live the way we'd like the world to be by building communities of compassion and care. Welcome to The Ocean of Awareness, where I talk to people navigating fields of transformation, to help you compassionately engage in the complexity of modern life through the simple principles and practices of ancient wisdom.

It was in the late 1970s when the Johannesburg city streets were taken over by panga-wielding men who were killing anyone in their path. This was my first experience of black-on-black violence. It shook me to my core, and left me feeling a need for us to rekindle the spirit of Ubuntu. Welcome to "I See You", the podcast that talks to the African diaspora about celebrating our cultural diversity so that we can truly see each other.

I remember when I was young and my father had been hospitalized for a year, leaving my family vulnerable with no money. He said to me, "To ever be successful, put people first". My family foundation was built on putting people first and that shaped my values. I now have an opportunity to become a catalyst in the movement of being a community builder. Welcome to the Seeds of Change. The podcast that talks to pollinators about driving social change so that communities unlock their deserving future.

I remember watching Brian Habana score the winning try in the 2007 Super Rugby final in a season where a lucky try changed the history of South African rugby forever.

The podcast that talks to avid rugby lovers about controversial opinions, unpopular takes, and news updates so that we can all chop it up in conversation about the love of the game.

Christmas 1975. Another set of fucking girly PJs that really I had no need for. Shorts and Ts did it for me. Dammit, don't they get me? Know me? How many pairs of PJs do I really need?
