The decisions and choices we make today impact our future. We are either gifting or robbing from the future. Our decisions are a direct output of our experiences, connections, biases and socio-economic status. We delve into these matters, driving accountability for the things we can change, to become real-life examples of success stories irrespective of accents, skin tones, household income or lack of role models. We can all become our hoped-for selves with guidance and honest examples of linking behaviours and beliefs. The future starts now - let’s start gifting it!
(Hosts' own opinions).
Ep.17| Identifying the Good in Others | Gifting The Future
Join us on this episode, where we discuss the importance of evaluating behaviours based on our own experiences and understanding of individuals, to extend grace when perspectives differ or in situations where we may experience others differently, discounting hearsay and temporary shifts.
We discuss challenging cancel culture by considering the bigger picture when evaluating someone's behaviour, to avoid losing or damaging valuable relationships.

Ep.16| Consciously Biased | Gifting The Future
We are turning the heat up with this episode, where we challenge the premise of ‘unconscious bias’. We keep it real with personal examples of experiencing unsavoury characters from other races and acknowledge the intentional effort and decisions we made as result to see the individuals as simply that- individuals, not spokespeople or necessarily representative of all others from their communities. We also discuss how appearances play into first impressions, to rightly or wrongly inform an opinion of others.

Ep.14| This is for the Ladies: Empowering Decisions, Red Flags and Being Redoutable
On this episode, we delve into empowering females to take charge of their lives, recognise red flags and cultivate a resilient mindset. We’re emphasising the importance of making decisions that shape your life and happiness, taking ownership of choices, aspirations and desires and discuss examples of decisions that should never be delegated to others.
We explore various areas where women tend to compromise their agency, such as career choices, relationships, and personal growth. Not forgetting the red flags in romantic relationships, friendships and professional environments and the warning signs that may indicate harm or toxicity.

Ep.9 | The Finance Segment- Save, Spend or Invest | Gifting The Future
This episode is the first part of our discussions around the things to consider to inform the decision to save, spend or invest.

Ep.7 | Weak Only Within My Tribe | Gifting The Future
In a world where people often consider vulnerability a weakness, where and around whom is it safe to show our vulnerabilities?
Aside from the mental health and well-being benefits of being able to be ‘weak’ in a safe place, those we can show this side of ourselves can strengthen, challenge and uplift us with their insights. In this episode, we discuss these individuals who see the worst and best of us.

Ep.2 | Redefining Privilege | Gifting The Future
In this episode, we discuss privilege and how certain characteristics either afford, or strip us of privilege. It's great if we present with the characteristics that typically afford privilege; we are able-bodied, have tertiary education, access to healthcare, are middle class (or wealthy), own property and have robust mental health? What can we do if we don't present with those characteristics? Join us for the discussion.

Ep.1 | Mind The Gap | Gifting The Future
We’ve heard about the gaps: the attainment gap, the North-South gap, and the socio-economic gap. What about the knowledge gap? The things we don’t know, not because we’re stupid but because we’ve never been taught or shown. Things others take for granted, that have helped their trajectory but are missing from ours?
