Memorability the Brain Skills Podcast with Kirti Ranchod

Memorability the Brain Skills Podcast with Kirti Ranchod

I was 37, already a neurologist for many years, the day my beautiful grandmother forgot how to get home. A home where I spent my happiest childhood days. I knew then that I had to do more to help her, now living with Alzheimer's disease, and more for the people I was seeing in my practice, in ways that academic neurology at that stage did not offer. There was so much research on what could be done to keep the brain healthy and mentally well. So much research on how to support better brain func

Leo's perspective with Leo Love

Leo's perspective with Leo Love

In 1979, the Buggles proclaimed that "video had killed the radio star." Yet decades later, the radio star continues to shine. At 11 years old, my dream of becoming a radio host was ignited by hearing the legendary Bonang Matheba on Metro FM. Now, as AI reshapes the media landscape, the resilience of the radio personalities faces never before tests. Join me on Leo's perspective as we delve into the enduring allure of radio, the impact of AI on broadcasting, and the future of radio stars in the

Kingdom Business Podcast with Songezo Soso Mata

For the transformation of unemployed youth. I was 21 years old evangelising around Umtata. Some of the people we met were hungry and I thought buying bread and milk would have helped them more at the time. This incident bothered me and is connected to the scripture in James 2 verse 26, "Faith without action is dead." This scripture prepared me to seek ways of ensuring people do not go to bed hungry.

Brand Boss

Brand Boss

My grandfather owned a trading store in a small village in Newcastle where he sold a variety of products. I have fond memories of being awakened by Coca-Cola and Albany bread trucks delivering their products. I was about 8 years old and I was already very brand conscious. I can still picture the captivating Mobil Gas advert featuring the red flying horse. I was drawn to that ad, and as I grew older I realised that my affinity for that brand and that of Coca-Cola was not coincidental. There was s

Wholeful

Wholeful

At a very young age, my family went through an incredibly traumatic experience. Not understanding the implications of that as a young child, this influenced many negative decisions in my life, leading to self-sabotage. After 30 years of repeating the same pattern, I decided to speak about it and get help during this journey. I realised how powerful the mind is, and that communicating and talking is the first step of this ladder to success. I'm Sean Davey. Welcome to Wholeful, where wholeness c

Suwah Notes

Suwah Notes

I remember the first time I noticed that women get treated a little differently at work. I was six months pregnant and running out of breath to the office. Late, as usual. Visibly pregnant, I asked for a permission slip to park closer to the building. But I was told that I needed a handwritten note from my gynae. Awks, I know. But it was then that I knew that the person who I needed help from would never understand what it meant to compete at work while sleep-deprived and managing a household. L

Rediscovered with Kelly Hoffman

Rediscovered with Kelly Hoffman

She was eight years old, the phone rang. The news broke, so did she. Her idol, her everything, her father - just died. She watched her mom collapse from sheer shock. Overwhelmed by emotions far greater and bigger than her, she stepped outside. Not a tear. She didn't know how to feel, how to cope, and how to articulate. She didn't recognise this pain. That was the day she lost her voice. And today is the day I choose to talk about it and use my story, the story of so many, to empower others wit

The Laundromat with Dawn Pretorius

The Laundromat with Dawn Pretorius

It was the Wolfsburg Questionnaire that did it. The Wolfsburg Questionnaire is a list of some 150 questions sent by one bank to another on their initiatives to curb money laundering. Technically, it is supposed to reveal just how compliant the financial institution is that you're working for. But that is only one example of our global efforts to stamp out money laundering. The reality is that money laundering continues to grow exponentially and collusion, corruption, and confusion are only get

The Louw Flyer

The Louw Flyer

They say once a horse breathes on your soul, your life is changed forever. I don't remember the first time a horse breathed on me, but I do remember the magic and the absolute conviction that something I could not live without. It is something I've been in pursuit of ever since. Monty Roberts famously said, "The horse will tell you" and I have found that grabbing mane and trusting the horse has led me to the most incredible people, places, and experiences of my life.

The Grand Café

The Grand Café

I remember my grandmother taking me to town with her. We would have lunch together at a posh restaurant called the Grand Café. We would sit by the booth which had the most sun, so it was always warm. We chatted for long, laughed a lot, and she listened with love and great interest. I felt heard, seen, as well as nourished in that time. I've carried that warmth with me throughout my life and realize that the moments with our elders are like a wisdom blanket. Welcome to the Grand Café, which tal

The Mantis Monolgues with Kerry Simpson

When I discovered writing and storytelling for the first time, I was around 10 years old when my mom brought out my gran's big old green typewriter. You know the one with those big, heavy, clanky keys that you really had to hammer down hard on? And I remember feeling excited and inspired to create stories. That led me to discovering the word 'processor' when I used to join my mom at her offices during school holidays. And there I would dream up love stories inspired by the Sweet Dreams novels th

Over the Top with Discover Digital

I was in London in 2003, attending a mobile gaming conference. At the time I was working for a new international motorsport championship, and I believed it may be an opportunity to have a mobile racing game. Bearing in mind, this was still during the feature phone era, smartphones were yet to be a thing. I left the conference convinced that content would be vastly consumed over the internet, out of the home, and on multiple devices. Whilst this has proven to be the case, many video-on-demand str

My name is Tsholo. I'm always having conversations with my brothers aka friends on our WhatsApp group. And with every check-in, it ends up being a competition of who consumed the best, most expensive alcohol in copious amounts, or which brother got to the hottest chick over the weekend. Mind you, most of them are married family men with kids. Seldom nothing that contributes to us being healthy present fathers, brothers, uncles, comes to the fore in these conversations.

The Ocean of Awareness with Lucy Draper-Clarke

I remember my early years in Sri Lanka, where the serene footsteps of Buddhist monks contrasted with the hooting and chaos of daily life. After 20 years in the UK, I chose to live in Southern Africa, and it was there, on the cow dung floor in the Marico, that I reconnected with the sanctuary of stillness, I found what I had always sensed the inner freedom offered by ancient wisdom traditions. This led me to research and share these timeless practices, which bring us into compassionate connect

I See You with Shado Twala

I See You with Shado Twala

It was in the late 1970s when the Johannesburg city streets were taken over by panga-wielding men who were killing anyone in their path. This was my first experience of black-on-black violence. It shook me to my core, and left me feeling a need for us to rekindle the spirit of Ubuntu.

Boardroom Soldiers

It wasn't so much an epiphany, instead, I had discovered destiny. I was that five-year-old sidekick to South Africa's top cop. It was the mid-1970s and our future had been decided. I was a homeschooled kid, but I spent my time on nightshift patrol with my dad. I was hooked on the thrill of good trumping evil. Many years later, we found ourselves wanting to share stories and experiences in dealing with business craft, from dishonest employees to nefarious practices. We cover it all. Welcome t
