Why does a continent with so much still struggle to get ahead? Pan Africanist and constitutional lawyer Brian Tamuka Kagoro joins Growth Well for a wide ranging conversation on the real history of colonization, the evolution of Pan Africanism, why so many post independence development models failed, and where he finds real, if cautious, hope for what comes next.

This conversation is relevant for anyone who wants a deeper, more honest understanding of African history and what it will actually take to build the future everyone keeps talking about.

Why is infidelity a problem?

It sounds like a simple question. But perhaps it isn't.

In this candid conversation on the GrowthWell Podcast, we explore the uncomfortable territory of unmet needs, personal responsibility, temptation, and the expectations we place on long-term relationships.

Can two people realistically remain faithful even after many years of being together? Can someone experience temptation without it meaning they are no longer committed? And where does personal responsibility begin when there are problems within a relationship?

There are no easy answers, but perhaps these are conversations we need to have more openly.

Is infidelity a relationship problem, an individual choice, or both?

Do we deserve to celebrate how far we’ve come? Absolutely. But we must also ask: what comes next?

Botswana’s first decades laid an important foundation, one worth acknowledging and learning from. But as circumstances change, so must the way we think about our future.

For years, we have spoken about economic diversification. Today, the realities of our dependence on diamonds are reminding us that some things are simply beyond our control, global diamond prices and demand among them.

What is within our control is how we respond.

As we look ahead, the conversation must balance people, planet, and the economy: advancing social upliftment, protecting our environment, and building a more resilient and diversified economy.

Before you call it quits, have you tried everything?

We prepare for marriage through premarital counselling, but what happens when the marriage itself becomes difficult?

In this episode, we discuss why couples therapy shouldn’t only be considered when a relationship is already at breaking point.

Sometimes, seeking help can create a path towards rebuilding the relationship. And sometimes, it can help two people recognise that going their separate ways is the healthiest decision, and do so amicably and respectfully.

Understanding the true state of the economy requires looking past headline output numbers to examine debt costs, interest rates, and structural policy ex*****on.

In this Economic Special, former Bank of Botswana Deputy Governor Dr. Keith Jefferis breaks down the latest macroeconomic data. He details why diamond volume increases aren't translating into instant state revenue, how the copper sector is scaling up, why high government borrowing drives up commercial interest rates, and the rating risks associated with national debt service costs.

Essential viewing for business leaders, investors, policy analysts, and entrepreneurs tracking Southern African markets.

We expect teenagers to make adult decisions while their brains are still developing!

As young people encounter peer pressure, difficult emotions and life-changing choices, independence needs to grow alongside connection, guidance and strong family values.

So what does that mean for parents? Being involved still matters.

A powerful conversation on parenting, adolescence and brain development: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z145biGpXBE&t=19s

A nation cannot achieve true prosperity when its citizens are trapped in systemic government dependency.

In this Special Episode, sociologist Dr. Onalenna Selolwane breaks down how state welfare systems shifted from empowering citizens to creating permanent handout dependencies.

She details how well-intentioned safety nets eroded local agency, why public sector business conflicts ruined policy ex*****on, and how misallocated education budgets leave foundational primary schools neglected.

The discussion offers clear strategies to transition away from state handouts toward true community self-reliance.
This conversation is essential viewing for policymakers, civic leaders, educators, and citizens committed to sustainable governance and human dignity.

From transforming the Botswana Stock Exchange to helping build capital markets in Rwanda!

In this episode, former Botswana Stock Exchange CEO Thapelo Tsheole reflects on a chapter of his career that went beyond simply leading an organisation.

When he took over the Botswana Stock Exchange, it was dependent on government subvention. Within 18 months, he and his team had turned it into a financially independent, world-class institution. That experience later took him to Rwanda, where he helped develop frameworks, laws, systems and structures to strengthen the country's capital markets.

"Some of the best things that ever happened to me... were being fired."

It's a statement that may sound surprising, but the lesson behind it is powerful.

In this Growthwell Podcast conversation, our guest shares a refreshing perspective on career transitions, retirement, and life's unexpected setbacks. Her philosophy is simple: challenges are inevitable. What matters is how prepared you are to respond when they come.

Rather than seeing change as a crisis, she chose to see it as an opportunity to build the next chapter.

Perhaps the biggest takeaway is this: The next chapter of your life doesn't begin when change happens, it begins with the choices and relationships you invest in long before that moment arrives.
