    Nomzamo is so relatable. I also grew up an over-achiever, the only black student at the top of my class. Independent child - I was so disciplined, my parents rarely pushed me to complete tasks. Then varsity came and that’s where I learnt that failure is something to be embraced - it’s a learning curve. And to be honest, failure is fun😂 especially for people who like being challenged. The key is to always keep trying
    Love you Nomzamo!!!🤩

    I am not yet in varsity and I think I really needed to hear sis Nomzamo talk about failure in this way.I feel more prepared and I now understand that there are gonna be some ups and downs in life but like she said "its just a pivot" 😂❤it's crazy how much of an influence one can have on other people lives by just being themselves and I just want to say that you are Really appreciated and you set an awesome example to many young(and old) people out there..me included, and I absolutely love and adore you for that.
    And SHAKA ILEMBE?? Sis yall ATE ATE!!! I've always been very curious about the history of South Africa and Africa as a whole because, in seSotho we say "ha o sa tsebe mo otswang teng okekebe wa tseba mo oyang teng". When I was younger my father told me the story of uShaka Zulu and seeing it come to life like this is truly amazinggg,especially it being portrayed by our current role models and people we see on TV on a daily basis!! that just adds the cherry on top😂thank you so so much for everything you do. It is highly appreciated❤Bayede dawg!!🙌🤣
