We often hear the saying, “In life, not every argument needs a response, and not every hill is worth dying on.”

Whether at home, at work, or in relationships, learning to choose your battles wisely is one of the most underrated yet powerful life skills.

Energy healing is a holistic practice that involves working with the body’s natural energy field to restore balance, promote healing, and support physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

During the global COVID-19 pandemic, declared by the World Health Organization on 11 March 2020, many countries reported high levels of vaccine hesitancy among younger population groups. Negative healthcare experiences and general distrust of government have cultivated vaccine hesitancy across Africa. Misleading information about vaccine side-effects on social media adds to this challenge.

This hesitancy continues today. A 2024 study on adolescents and young adults (aged 10 to 35) in sub-Saharan Africa found a vaccine acceptance rate of just 38.7%.

Dr. Oluwaseyi Dolapo Somefun,Research Associate at University of the Western Cape joined us to unpack the findings of the report  carried out among 165 young adults in Nigeria, South Africa and Zambia, which sought to establish what could be done to help improve future vaccine acceptance, inform campaigns and prepare for future public health responses.

Transgender and nonbinary people experience higher levels of stress due to societal challenges. As such, finding joy can be a powerful tool in maintaining mental and physical health.

Trans joy refers to the happiness, euphoria, and positive emotions experienced by transgender and gender diverse individuals, often as a result of embracing their true selves and finding community and belonging.

It's a concept that counters the common narrative of trans experiences being solely defined by struggle and hardship, highlighting the positive aspects of being trans.

We spoke to two trangender women, Yaya Mavundla and Iyanda Ndlovu about what trans joy means to members of the trans community and how to find gender euphoria during a transition.
