Is being a global citizen just another buzzword going around? What exactly is a ‘third culture kid’ and how can we be one when we are no longer… kids?

On this episode, we got to sit down with gorgeous, award-winning Zimbabwean actress and host of the Zim Excellence Podcast, Vongai Shava. 

We discuss what it means when no physical place feels like home and why we continue to choose life as a global citizen in spite of the complexities it brings. Delve deeper with us as we explore this and more!

S06E11 - S6 Season Finale.... Final Goodbye (?!)

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/1f115db6-4b7e-4a52-ad21-b2b200f79922/transcript

For this episode, we got to sit down with multi-hyphenate rapper / singer / lawyer / voice actor, Simba Mak. While we are celebrating women and our soft-era, we felt it important to get a man’s perspective on life and its complexities.

Simba sat down with us to talk about his journey from Zimbabwe to Australia, the acknowledgement that nobody is self-made, and the complexities of creative duality and how he juggles that. 

 

Keep up with Simba and all he’s up to:

S06E10  - Delve deeper into... Creative Duality with Rapper/Musician/Lawyer Simba Mak

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/7ad9adf6-3d32-4ef0-9233-b2b200f33059/transcript

We’re going behind the curtain on this episode as we discuss what goes into being a musician, especially one that hails from Zimbabwe -the actual hustle and grind of pursuing artistry. 

 

We were joined by the dynamic and incredibly talented Niasha on this episode and we went into the layers of following artistic passion whilst also maintaining a 9 - 5 and what it was like touring with Sampa the Great. When they say dynamite comes in small packages, they were talking about Niasha because she is an entertainer of note!

 

Keep up with Niasha and all she’s up to:
