Hey Everyone and welcome to Living_In_Fullness with Women and Wellness. I am your host Lois Mashinini.

On today's episode, I am joined in conversation with a phenomenal woman Joey Dlamini.

Joey is a qualified social worker and the Founder of Beaccentuated, a non-profit that seeks to raise capable girls and boys by shattering stereotypes and misconceptions that divided them. Beaccentuated provides a space where all genders can thrive.

She is also a parenting expert with a heart and message that we should normalise the imperfect journey of parenting. She has learned the value of parenting with compassion and connection through her own childhood experiences and now as a mother of three.  Parents love her candid and practical advice that they use to not only challenge themselves but also connect with their children.

Joey's dedication, hard work and determination to raise well-rounded, confident children inspired her to write her very first book The Teen Top 25: foundational life lessons for a thriving journey to adulthood .

In this book, she talks to teens about the different challenges that they might face on their journey and give them tools on how to navigate them. The Book aims to start conversations between parents and children as they get to learn from each other and walk this journey together . It also reminds them of their abilities and how to harness them.

As a mother she believes it is important to heal from any past hurts and not forget yourself while also taking care of your children. One of her most exciting projects is learning how to navigate  technology as taught by her teen son Oki.

Join us in conversation as we discuss wellness in relationships, advocacy for children and so much more as we journey together in Living In Fullness.

Let's Dive in.
