The symbolism behind wearing a crown, in general, isn't just about placing a lavish ornament atop one's head; it's a potent symbol of authority, power, and legacy. Last weekend, we witnessed the crowning of Natasha Joubert as Miss South Africa who is the first to wear the newly unveiled Mowana crown. The Mowana crown was designed by Ursula Pule who is the creative director of Nungu Diamonds which was established by her husband Kealeboga Pule in 2013. The company is the manifestation of an accidental encounter between the two that turned into a love story filled with diamonds. Kealeboga and Ursula join Lerato Mbele to walk us through their journey.

Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) was originally envisioned as a cornerstone of restorative justice, rather than a mechanism for a select few to amass wealth. Its primary purpose was to function as a transformative tool to dismantle the rigid, systemic inequalities inherited from the apartheid era. By design, the policy aimed to broaden the economic landscape, ensuring that most citizens could move beyond the margins and engage in meaningful, productive participation within the national economy. Mondli Makhanya spoke to Duma Gqubule Director of the Centre for Economic Transformation and Gregory Mofokeng is the Vice President of Organised Business and the Black Business Council in the Built Environment (BBCBE) CEO.
