Award-winning serial entrepreneur Bathabile Moreki says the real challenge facing young South Africans isn’t a lack of ambition — it’s the inability to consistently turn time, skills, and networks into income. As financial pressure stretches well beyond January motivation, she believes progress comes from intentional monetisation, not inspiration. From building income before structure to leveraging what’s already available, Moreki’s journey reinforces one core lesson: income must come before scale.
