I have always been fascinated by how people got to where they are and how they do what they do. Having worked across multiple sectors including media, retail, consulting, fashion, etc, I am curious about a lot of things. In the Listen To Your Footsteps podcast, I get to have conversations with Africans operating across various fields like the arts, design, advertising, media, entertainment, technology and business about their life’s journey and the lessons they have learned along the way. It is a space for reflection, introspection, acknowledgement and celebration.880426 Ciencias Sociales

    Refiloe Ramogase, A Life of Self-Disruption and Stewardship
    Dec 11 2025
    Before he became one of the most respected voices shaping South Africa’s music ecosystem, Refiloe Ramogase was a boy in a Catholic school uniform learning discipline, structure and the emotional silence that often comes with it.His path moved through political science dreams, economic pressure, call centre shifts, artist management battles and industry boardrooms. Along the way, he learned that leadership is not defined by title or visibility, but by the willingness to disrupt yourself repeatedly and consciously.In this powerful episode of Listen To Your Footsteps, Refiloe reflects on:How Catholic school discipline formed his worldview, ambition and emotional habits.The economic realities that pushed him from political dreams into the corporate world.The moment he stepped into the music industry and saw the structural gaps hurting artists.Why the industry needs better systems, policies and protection rather than more stars.The emotional weight of grief and how loss reshaped his identity, presence and priorities. How therapy helped him unlearn inherited patterns and build healthier ways of being. The transformative role of fatherhood and raising daughters with emotional intelligence.Why leadership rooted in self-disruption creates better teams, systems and legacies. Refiloe speaks with clarity, humour and emotional honesty, offering a rare look into the internal and external work required to lead in creative industries. His story is not about chasing power.It is about becoming the kind of person who can hold power responsibly.Whether you work in music, lead people, raise children or are navigating your own evolution, this episode will shift how you think about leadership, identity and the systems we build.Listen now on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Afripods⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, or wherever you get your podcasts.You can find the latest from Refiloe on the following platforms:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠| ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkTree⁠, or get the latest from Refiloe Ramogase Productions by visiting LinkedIn | Instagram⁠Subscribe to: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WATCH | LISTEN⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Zebra Culture Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Recorded at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Vodcast TV⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Show Music by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kweku 'Taygo' Baffoe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Produced by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ayob Vania

  • Siphiwe Mhlambi, A Life Built Frame by Frame

    Siphiwe Mhlambi, A Life Built Frame by Frame
    Dec 5 2025
    Siphiwe Mhlambi’s story begins with rupture. Abandoned as a child, raised without answers, and left to assemble a sense of belonging from fragments, he discovered a camera at thirteen and found more than a hobby. He found a lifeline. A discipline. A language. And eventually, a world that would let him build himself, frame by frame.Today, Siphiwe stands as one of South Africa’s most respected documentary and jazz photographers, a quiet custodian of history whose images have travelled far beyond the stages and streets where they were born. His archive does more than capture musicians or moments. It preserves a culture, honours overlooked lives, and restores dignity to stories that might otherwise vanish.In this powerful episode of Listen To Your Footsteps, Siphiwe reflects on:How childhood abandonment shaped his relationship with silence, searching and storytellingThe moment a camera became both structure and salvationWhy jazz is not just a genre but a philosophy that shaped his way of seeingHis role as an archivist of South African culture and why documentation is a form of justiceThe mentors, communities and chosen family who gave him rootsThe emotional labour of photographing other people’s truths while confronting his ownSiphiwe speaks with humility, precision and emotional clarity, offering a rare look into a life shaped by creative resilience. His reflections remind us that healing is slow work, artistry takes courage, and legacy is built through consistent, deliberate witnessing.Whether you know his photographs or meet him here for the first time, this episode reveals the human story behind the lens: a boy becoming a man, a seeker becoming an archivist,and an artist learning to belong.Listen now on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Afripods⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, or wherever you get your podcasts.You can find the latest from Siphiwe on the following platforms:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠| ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ , or visit ⁠siphiwemhlambi.com⁠Subscribe to: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WATCH | LISTEN⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Zebra Culture Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Recorded at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Vodcast TV⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Show Music by ⁠⁠⁠⁠Kweku 'Taygo' Baffoe⁠⁠⁠⁠Produced by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ayob Vania

  • Ntsiki Mkhize, Designing A Life Of Social Impact

    Ntsiki Mkhize, Designing A Life Of Social Impact
    Nov 29 2025
    From natural hair blogging before it was a movement to podcasting long before it was mainstream, Ntsiki Mkhize has spent her entire life arriving in spaces early.Today she is a social entrepreneur, author, speaker, mentor, and founder of Mentor, a global mentorship community for women navigating entrepreneurship, leadership, and social impact. But her story did not begin in boardrooms or ecosystems. It started at a family table where she was encouraged to question everything, design her own path and live “on purpose, on purpose.”In this episode of Listen To Your Footsteps, Ntsiki opens up about:Growing up with young parents who created room for her voice, her ideas and her tenacityWhy she entered Miss South Africa as a teenager and later returned with an afro that challenged the norms of beauty and representationWhat it means to be “ahead of the curve” and why timing, not talent, often determines whether an idea succeeds The truth about burnout, reinvention, and rebuilding a mentorship ecosystem from scratch during COVIDHow her global mentorship platform, book, magazine and corporate work converge into a deeper purpose centred on women, youth, entrepreneurship and inclusionThe role mentors have played in her evolution and how individuals and organisations can structure mentorship that actually transforms livesWhy she is now being invited into tech, finance and policy spaces and what excites her about becoming a woman shaping Africa’s futureThe healing and grounding she found through swimming and free-diving after a traumatic experienceWhether she is building communities, writing stories, designing ecosystems or diving ten metres underwater to relearn trust in her body, Ntsiki shows that purpose is not an accident. It is a deliberate act. A daily alignment. A way of being.This conversation is a blueprint for anyone trying to navigate purpose, timing, ambition and reinvention.Listen now on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Afripods⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, or wherever you get your podcasts.You can find the latest from Ntsiki on the following platforms:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠| ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ , or visit ntsikim.co.zaSubscribe to: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WATCH | LISTEN⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Zebra Culture Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Recorded at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Vodcast TV⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Show Music by ⁠⁠⁠Kweku 'Taygo' Baffoe⁠⁠⁠Produced by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ayob Vania
