Lorcia Cooper Kumalo sits down with Thando on Your Story, where she opened up about raising her children and carving out her path to success. She reflected on the realities of growing up Coloured in South Africa—navigating limited opportunities, identity, and the weight of history—while still holding onto her dreams.

From late-night bus rides after dance classes to long walks home, her journey is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices it takes to rise.
