Are you okay with being the person who speaks up when something goes wrong at work, the one some people might even label the “company snitch”? Or does that thought make you uneasy? And when you report someone, do you ever think about what could happen next? What if that person ends up losing their job? Do you feel responsible for that outcome, or do you believe that adults should know the rules and face the consequences of their actions? We are joined by Life Coach, Coach Hlamalane Grace Chauke.

Office Taboos: Snitching on your colleague

From pickled fish making its annual appearance on the table, to freshly baked hot cross buns shared over tea, Easter is a time where food tells stories of culture, faith, and togetherness. For many, it’s also about those slow, meaningful meals. Whether it’s a hearty Sunday lunch, a braai with loved ones, or sweet treats that remind you of childhood, Pholoso Sebola who is a Demi-chef de Partie at Marriott Hotel Johannesburg joins us in studio as he guides us on how to create the perfect Easter feast.

For many Black communities, a burial is not just a ceremony; it is sacred. It’s a spiritual duty to bury your loved one and restore their dignity as they transition into the after life. Being present allows us to find closure. So when we look at the case of Dr Nandipha Magudumana, it brings us to a complex and uncomfortable question. Even as an accused person facing serious charges, does she still deserve the right to fulfil that sacred duty and attend her mother’s funeral? Some would argue that compassion, or botho, is a fundamental part of who we are. That dignity should not be stripped away, even in the face of alleged wrongdoing. Others feel that extending such compassion risks sidelining the pain of victims and their families, who are still waiting for justice and accountability. So have we leaned too heavily on the idea of botho? Or is this exactly where it matters most; in how we treat people at their lowest, even when it’s difficult? We are in conversation with Political and Social Commentator,  Lethlogonolo Mosuwe as we unpack whether justice for the victims and humanity for the accused can truly co-exist? And if so, what does that balance look like in practice?

Do we lean too heavily on the idea of 'Botho' as South Africans?

The traditional ‘nuclear’ family is no longer the norm, and financial planning has had to evolve to cater to more diverse, and often complex, family structures. From differing opinions on how to honor the one who passed on, conflicts over traditions, and decisions regarding who should play a role in the service can lead to disagreements. Families may struggle with balancing the wishes of the surviving spouse, children from a previous marriage, and extended family members, all of whom have their own unique relationships with the departed. We are in conversation with COO and co-founders of Sendoff,  Thabisile Sethaba  as we unpack end-of-life planning for blended families.
