S03 #183 IN THE ROOM with Health Diplomat to SA Presidency | Lwazi Manzi

If you consider yourself a change agent, you are a politician. What happens when women step into the room where power, policy, and pressure collide? In this exclusive IN THE ROOM interview, Conscious LeadHERS Founder Carmen Murray sits down with Dr. Lwazi Manzi, Health Diplomat to the Presidency of South Africa, for a rare, unfiltered conversation on politics, diplomacy, power, and purpose. From behind-the-scenes moments during COVID-19 and global vaccine negotiations, to the future of AI, African innovation, and political literacy, this episode challenges everything we think we know about leadership. It asks the uncomfortable questions: Are you already a politician if you call yourself a change agent? What does diplomacy really require? And who truly holds political power? Raw, intelligent, and deeply human, this conversation reframes politics not as something to avoid, but as a skill women must master if they want to shape the future. website · podcast studio · Join our community for free · Join our YouTube channel for more

Hydrometallurgy of the Future | Buhle Xakalshe and Jochen Petersen

The world’s dependency on metals has become more evident with the growing demand for metals required to drive advancements in the technological and digital landscape, and the energy transition for a carbon neutral future. This growing demand, however, implies that the metal extraction industry will need to play a significant role in providing the world with vast quantities of metals, crucial in the building of the necessary infrastructure. Join Buhle Xakalashe and Jochen Petersen for their discussion on the future of Hydrometallurgy. This episode was recorded with the Hydrometallurgy Conference in mind, which has since passed, but we believe that this is a pertinent episode which continues to drive the post-conference conversation forward.

Exploring Ebony with Mmangaliso Nzuza

Across countries and cultures, art forms an integral part of African identity – shaped by our natural and cultural heritage and expressed in powerful, distinctive ways. Through our 'Africa Is…' series, we’re exploring art, design, craftsmanship, and storytelling from across the continent to showcase the depth and diversity of talent found here. In this episode, Singita’s in-house writer, Michael Schapiro, speaks with South African artist Mmangaliso Nzuza ahead of his artist-in-residence programme at Singita Sabi Sand. Their conversation moves through stillness as a creative necessity, the multi-faceted importance of community, Mmangaliso’s process in the context of his debut solo exhibition, and nature as a teacher rather than a subject. Recorded in two parts – before and after Mmangaliso’s two-week stay at Ebony – the episode reflects on how his time in the Sabi Sand unfolded beyond expectation, and how those experiences transformed into a new body of work, marked with oil paint, patience, and stories drawn from the people and landscapes that shaped it. Mmangaliso was joined along the way by videographer Julian Robinet, who captured his experience in a video that will be released as part of our upcoming 'Africa Is… Mmangaliso Nzuza' series. You can stay in the loop by subscribing to our newsletter, Stories from Africa. If you enjoyed this episode, you can read more about Mmangaliso’s experience in his own words in the latest volume of the Singita Magazine, themed around Symbiosis, and follow his journey on Instagram.

Saving a Species: Rhino | Rewriting the Future - The Malilangwe Trust’s two historic translocations to Gonarezhou

Every rhino counts. In this episode, Sarah Clegg (Malilangwe Trust’s Ecologist at Singita Malilangwe), chats to Tash Dzwukutu (Assistant Lodge Manager at Singita Pamushana Lodge) about the extensive rhino conservation projects in Zimbabwe. Sarah has been in this role for almost 30 years. From a post-graduate student to a Master's degree in Ecology, she oversees the study and monitoring of Malilangwe’s rhino population, with a focus on black rhino social ecology. They discuss the role of black and white rhino in the ecosystem, the Malilangwe Trust’s (MT’s) conservation efforts, and the threats facing rhino - namely habitat loss and illegal poaching for their horn. Ironically, on the Malilangwe Reserve, growing rhino populations have created a new challenge, prompting two historic translocations — of black and white rhinos — to establish breeding herds in the nearby Gonarezhou National Park. Learn about the long-term rhino projects to save the species in Zimbabwe and hear how Sarah carefully selects which bonded rhino groups to relocate without disrupting population dynamics. Tune in for Sarah’s heartwarming tales about the rhinos that were relocated to the national park next door and another story of renewal. These new populations represent our hope for the future!
