Nompumelelo Maduna’s podcast aims to ignite young minds

This initiative aims to spotlight the journeys of inspirational figures, who have successfully navigated challenges and are eager to lend their wisdom to the next generation.

The cornerstone of this campaign is the Impumelelo Mentorship podcast, set to launch at the end of March across multiple streaming platforms.

The six-episode series aims to become a wellspring of knowledge, showcasing stories that promise to inspire and transform young listeners.

Maduna says that mentorship is the most precious gift a person with experience can give to others.

“When I entered Miss South Africa, I committed to, ‘Rise as I rise with others’. Podcasts are the new encyclopedias of information, ideas and knowledge and have become an important global platform for engagement.
