    EP #12 - The 'Do We Split This' Moment

    Nothing tests friendship quite like the bill landing on the table. Do we split it evenly, itemise to the cent, or hope someone generous picks it up? In this episode, I navigate the awkward math, silent resentments, and unspoken rules that arise when money and friendship intersect. Because it’s never really about the bill — it’s about care, fairness, and whether the vibe can survive the receipt.

    Ep #11 - Friendships on Borrowed Time

    00Some friendships last a lifetime. Others? They’re seasonal, situational, or quietly fade into memory.In this episode, Dayana reflects on the friendships that shaped her in high school and university — the ones that fizzled but left gratitude behind — and the adult friendships that anchor her today through brunches, birthdays, church, and everyday life.“Friendships on Borrowed Time” is an honest look at the joy, grief, and gratitude of relationships that don’t always last forever but still leave fingerprints on who we are.

    Ep #10 - Pretty Over Good

    Episode 10: Pretty Over Good Johannesburg is full of gorgeous new restaurants — velvet chairs, golden cutlery, walls designed for perfect selfies — but when the food arrives… It’s just okay. Somewhere along the way, we started chasing aesthetics over quality. And it’s not just food — it’s fashion, products, relationships, even how we live our lives. In this episode, I unpack why we’re drawn to beautiful packaging even when the substance doesn’t match, and how this habit shapes what we value, pay for, and recommend. We’ll ask: Are we in love with the experience, or the performance of the experience? And what do we lose when we ignore the “unpretty” gems right in front of us?

    Ep #9 - You Don’t Own That — And Maybe You Never Did

    You Don’t Own That — And Maybe You Never DidFrom movies to music to software — even the things we “buy” often aren’t really ours.In this episode, we unpack the subscription economy: the convenience, the clutter-free minimalism… and the quiet dependency it creates.Why we’ve traded ownership for access, what we’ve gained, and what we’ve quietly lost along the way.

    Ep #8 - Service Delivery That Doesn’t Deliver

    What happens when you follow all the rules, submit the forms, pay the fees, and wait for weeks, only for the system to just… not show up?In this episode, we unpack the emotional and financial toll of service delivery that doesn’t deliver. From a travel document that’s been “verifying” for 18 months, to visa applications that cost thousands and still end in rejection, to a DHL package that was stolen and somehow not their problem, this one’s for anyone who’s ever been failed by a system and told to be patient about it. This may be nothing, but maybe it’s time we stop normalising disappointment.

    Ep #7 - Healing Is Boring — But I’m Doing It Anyway

    Healing is often sold as this beautiful, transformative journey, full of insight, peace, and empowerment. But let’s be real: most of it feels boring as hell. This week, I’m discussing the quiet aspects of healing, the non-events, the neutral days, and the tiny decisions that may not seem significant but quietly matter. No big revelations. No emotional montages. Just the kind of growth that happens in the in-between. If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Is this doing anything?” this episode is for you. 👀 Next week: Why Am I Afraid of Being Seen?

    Ep #6 - Soft Life, Hard Edges

    You keep saying you want a soft life — slower mornings, less stress, more ease.But the truth? You’re still carrying some sharp edges.Not because you want to… but because you had to. In this episode, we unpack the tension between craving softness and living with the protection you built to survive: the overthinking, the over-functioning, the “I’ve got this” energy that now feels a little too heavy. We explore: Why the soft life can feel out of reach (even when you want it) How hustle culture wires us to reject rest The edges that served you — and why they’re starting to crack The practice of setting boundaries without becoming hard What it means to feel safe enough to soften Plus: this week’s Main Character is Gentle Accountability — the one who sees you, reminds you to rest, and doesn’t let you disappear on yourself. ✨ If you’re somewhere between softening and surviving — hit play.And stay tuned till the end for a sneak peek of next week’s episode on hyper-independence and emotional exhaustion.
