#030 Slaying the Dread | Lindie Liebenberg

Getting a Grip on Cancer and Positivity. “This book is an honest recollection of my childhood - the good and not so good. Some of the stories I share, not even my husband or my children knew about, and they struggled to read past it. I have hidden it for so long, as I was scared and ashamed. Alcoholism, poverty, hardships, violence, unforgiveness, but now that I have dealt with it, forgiven them, and forgiven myself for not feeling good enough, I am set free. It further focuses on my cancer journey. My life is now literally an open book.” Since 2019, age 48, diagnosed with Breast Cancer, Stage 3, 5 years later, Lindie is into her 6th fight against the dreaded disease. “The power of knowledge is crucial in the fight against cancer I had to take control of cancer, and not to be fear driven. Faith over fear." “You never know how strong you are, till being strong is your only option!”

#015 The Applied Academic | Gina Ziervogel

Gina Ziervogel (Associate Professor in Geography at the University of Cape Town) "I do what I love...and then these amazing things come to me." "I don't see purpose as a goal, purpose has always been living into what I love, and then the goals emerge." Gina Ziervogel, Associate Professor in Geography at the University of Cape Town, with a history of working in the trans-disciplinary space. Particularly interested in climate change, resilience and transformation. Research interests focus on governance across scales, such as between municipalities and community actors. A fabulous episode detailing a very different approach to life and the value of taking chances, and putting yourself out there. Purpose seen differently, because we have been taught incorrectly.

#010 The Musical Maestro | Richard Cock

Just imagine that your sense of purpose in life is allowing each musician in a full orchestra to interpret the black notes on a white page to their individual potential whilst pulling it all together to the intentions of the composer who put the notes in that order on the page. That is both a gift and a rare skill, and Richard Cock has lived music since the age of six and has a unique take on purpose and music. Be inspired.

#004 The Judge and Defender of Human Rights | Edwin Cameron (Part 1)

Justice Edwin Cameron (Inspecting Judge Of Prisons | Chancellor of Stellenbosch University) Turning stigmas of homophobia and HIV-AIDS into defending human rights. An intensely vulnerable, honest and real conversation with a man who was described by Nelson Mandela as "One of South Africa's new heroes" and who has been called "The greatest legal mind of his generation." Edwin had a traumatic childhood growing up in a fractured home, with an alcoholic father who was imprisoned for stealing a car, and he later spent 5 years in a children's home after the tragic loss of a sister and his mother's inability to be able to support him and his other sister. Living in fear of being discovered for his true identity because he was gay and different, Edwin found his voice and his purpose as a defender of those who are marginalized, those who are oppressed, and those who are victims. As a result he has changed and positively impacted literally thousands of lives. This is a story and a conversation that will have a powerful impact on you and how you view your own life and purpose. Edwin is an extraordinary human who understands that in sharing our often painful experiences we allow others to resonate, relate and embark on their own journey of heling and purpose.
