  • Theo Baloyi founded Bathu SA, a multi-award winning sneaker brand that is now ranked in the top 10 of most admired brands in Africa. The youth of South Africa, whilst highly challenged are rising up to the occasion and claiming their space in building profitable and sustainable businesses. As we close SA's youth month....I say kudos to every young person giving it their best shot in spite of their circumstances!!!

    How do we make SA brands last , be sustainable. There has been brands like lotion culture, Ama kip kip , they hyped for a couple of years but die down and vanish like they never existed . Hopefully this brand will be our Nike or Adidas and be her for generations to come.

    Call it divine timing, I always love to see and hear Theo speak... the pedestal South African entrepreneurs are put on is no light thing because we have so much in us and some of it barely comes out the way it should, so to see two beautiful chosen souls connect and sage talk is vast for us who are coming up. I was sleeping and watched the interview halfway last night but had a dream and waking up this morning decided to go back to the interview, first thing and got right in where the dream was... I’m reminded of the verse: my sheep hear my voice. The both of you being spiritual made me hear your voices from a realm of home we all come from, our GOD and creator our Father in heaven and on earth. Thank you Amanda for the blessing that you are.
    Also me listening to the language and thinking I understand as a visionary, marking out all my faults... but I’m not where you are, probably need a mentor too. Lord help me find one I can trust and open up to. 🙏🏿 Amen

    He said “In everything I do, I invite God.” and “God won’t give you something you can’t handle” and then She said “The reason you started is what keeps you going even when you face difficulties”🥺
    So basically what they are saying to me or teaching me is that I should invite God in everything I do and when things get hard I should remind myself the reason I started and then draw strength from that to keep going. Also remember that God won’t give me something I can’t handle🥺❤️
    Definitely needed this, thank you so much🥺❤️

    I've spent so much time over thinking an idea that I've had for many years. Overthinking honestly made it seem too big and I was overwhelmed. However, I'm haunted by it and no matter how much I've tried to let it go, it revisits me. I know that I HAVE TO GET THIS BUSINESS UP AND RUNNING. thank you Sis Amanda. Theo contributed a lot congratulations to him and the success he's been able to attain. I TOTALLY agree with him on the service part.
