  1. Today I publicly declared my life to ‘The Lord The Lord, the Compassionate and Gracious God.’ I once feared Him as a merciless fascist, so guilty, ashamed and insecure in myself that I thought I’d never be enough to stand in His presence, or to even allow myself to live. It’s great to know that even though those feelings are valid, it is in my very weakness that Christ reaches out and His power is made perfect. I tried self-esteem, tried therapy, and even though those things have a place, nothing really gave me belonging. Only through His sacrifice am I enough, more than good enough. My mission as an artist has always been to tell my story with the hope that those who feel the same way will know that they’re not alone. I struggled with belonging and ‘home’ all my life and now it’s evident to me that we all belong to a purpose much greater than we think. We’re loved and cherished in a way we’ll never fully understand, so run to Him. There’s true joy here. Right here is where I belong. I’m not alone and neither are you. I love you and God bless you ❤️ ;

  1. & it’s official!! Mr and Mrs Zwide 💒🔔 Thank you so much to all who tuned in and thank you for the love you’ve shown to this beautiful love story! From meeting in the dressing room with a stolen Zwide dress on 😂 to walking down the isle! It’s been such a journey and there’s still so much more to come! Thank you to the entire @houseofzwide team for all your hard work in putting this together. It wasn’t easy but we sure made magic! @kagisoyabakwena thank you for your brilliance!! Couldn’t have asked for a better Director to put this vision to life! My princess dreams really came true thanks to the wardrobe and makeup team! Shoki (I 👀) looked incredible!! @dopezuluboi @brenda.mukwevho @house_of_queen_makeup 📸: @mo_pixel @hustlersmultimedia

  2. Wits Edge CONQUERED ✅ God got me here, all the glory belongs to Him. His grace and mercy is unfailing🥹The person I am today is not the person I was when I first stepped through these University gates. I am so proud of the woman standing here today, boy is she strong and capable of anything she puts her mind to. She inspires me so much, whenever I am low, I will look back on this day, on this journey and I will pick myself up again the same way she had to, over and over again. Oh Gosh, there is so much I could say about the challenges I’ve faced throughout the years & even days leading to this point. It’s been a mentally, physically and spiritually taxing journey and there were many times where I really thought I wasn’t gonna make it here. Thank you to my mom and dad, family and my friends for carrying me through till the end. I’m wearing the same gown my dad wore when he graduated here 30 years ago with a BA in Dramatic Arts and here I am with my BA in Film and Television🥰 📸: @mo_pixel Hair & makeup: @remore_hair_

  2. 17.09.2023 - I had a CT Scan administered a few weeks back, which have shown that I have blood clots as well as Fibrosis in my lung. This explains the chest pains I had been feeling. My Medical Oncologist has recommended blood thinners and Oral Chemo. On the upside, I’m incredibly grateful that I am still treatable! 🙏🏾 I’m off to bed … Good night … Good morning, beloved hearts! 💋 Love, the Oros Lady (I feel like my face just gets more rotund and puffy by the day!) 🤣 Peace. Passion. Positivity. ❤️ #TerminallyFree #ZolekaMandelaVideos

  3. 🧡02.05.2023🧡 Dear Diary! Guess what happened today? I had my last and 10th Radiation Treatment to my brain. 🙏🏾 I even got to take my Radiation Mask with me, as memorabilia!!! 🧡 My Radiation Oncologist has also asked me to discontinue the STEROIDS, I’m back home and feeling indebted!!! 🤗 Next form of treatments is with my Medical Oncologist. Peace. Passion. Positivity. #TerminallyFree #ZolekaMandela 🧡
