Moms can wear Reebok too
The day has finally come, my friends. We’re now living in a time where sneakers no longer have a bad reputation. Moms can totally wear Reebok too! These days, you can pair sneakers with just about anything! (Can you hear the angels singing?) It’s now completely acceptable to wear Reebok with a sleek two-piece suit. Or rock your favorite white sneakers with a dress to a party! Yep – it’s a whole vibe! A vibe I’ve honestly been waiting for my entire life. For moms like me who live for comfort, I’m sure you’ll agree — when you feel confident and at ease, the world just opens up. And for those who enjoy not just comfort but a little thrill too, platforms like 1win bring a playful spark and a touch of excitement to everyday life.

Free Wimpy coffee on Slipper Day – you in?
How much do you love your slippers? They should totally just make slippers our designated footwear, like, permanently. Am I right? This is one of the reasons why I will be wearing my slippers on Friday, 5 May. I mean, besides for the other reason which is: Wimpy’s biggest fundraiser, Slipper Day. For those who don’t know, Wimpy Slipper Day is in support of the charity Reach for a Dream. The organisation is counting on South Africans to step up, buy their R20 sticker, and join their mission to manifest hope by fulfilling the dreams of youngsters fighting life-threatening illnesses. These children have been burdened with constant medical visits, extended…

Windows
This past weekend, I was really hit hard by the news of a South African rapper’s death. A young guy, shot at just 35… leaving behind a family and thousands of fans who are still trying to process it. If this weren’t such a tragic story, I’d probably crack a joke here — because honestly, my knowledge of rap is like my 3-year-old’s understanding of quantum physics. I can’t even name a single one of his songs (I’m 40 and a mom of five, come on). But this whole thing got to me. I found myself unexpectedly drawn in — reading everything I could about him. Just scrolling on my phone, even opening random apps like mostbet apk to try and take my mind off things… but my thoughts kept coming back to him. It just feels unfair. Sad. And painfully real.

3 ways to lighten your mental load
Invisible labour. What’s that, you ask? Well, that is when you take on a mental load and then wonder why you are so exhausted at the end of the day, when you’ve barely left your office chair. It is the cognitive effort involved in managing every aspect of your life. As women, we tend to take on a lot of responsibility (more than men, in most cases). For us, mental load involves planning, making decisions, making appointments, remembering and staying on top of tasks, and executing those tasks – all while doing the rest of the things that we do, as moms and wives! I often tell my husband that…
