The Ubuntu Connect-ED Podcast Co-hosts Charmaine Soobramoney, located in South Africa and ED Dudley located in the United States met virtually via LinkedIn during the Summer of 2020.

There was an immediate connection of like-minded spirits. After holding monthly conversations over the next year to just connect and share during the month of January 202 Charmaine asked ED if he would be interested in developing a podcast. After spending some time brainstorming the Ubuntu Connect-ED Podcast was birthed. The Vision

To demonstrate through authentic conversations that it possible t

o break free of cycles of challenges and associated trauma. The podcasts contribute to creating a world that is authentic, transparent, relatable, kind, and inclusive. Through the conversations we will illustrate that when give ourselves permission to embrace our pain and equally important allow it to teach us about listening, compassion, self-love and kindness to self and others it triggers an appreciation for living and how precious life is. The intention of the podcast is to inspire and ignite messages, of hope, peace, patience, tolerance, acceptance in a troubled world. Reaffirm the lesson that vulnerability and truth open our hearts. Vulnerability and truth have the potential of creating a community of love and support. When one feels “safe” experiences the love and support the burden of the challenge is easier to work though. The wisdom acquired during the challenging phase starts to shine a light hope and possibilities for more people experiencing trauma/challenges.

Aloe Blacc - “We all have an obligation..!" "Find a community to dance, sing and laugh with!” The Global superstar, impact leader and Changemaker Aloe Blacc celebrates his birthday today - 7 January 2024.

Community, please join us in celebrating Aloe, for the way he uses his voice, talents, creativity, influence, and resources to inspire, support, heal and mobilise positive change and impact.

https://youtu.be/uZsYWEk1NWc?si=zALZajJt3Sq9_0rD

Aloe’s humility and genuine care for humanity are evident in the way he engages, collaborates and shares his insights. In this conversation, he shares various perspectives and teachable lessons on life, creativity, opportunity, social justice, mental health, the need to master your craft, discipline, humility, the power of continuous learning and embracing the unique YOU! – Aloe’s words – “I always want to engage if I know I can be helpful.”

Aloe's music speaks to the broad range of human experience, from platonic love to love for humanity, from politics to aspiration.
Rather than a genre, his music follows a theme he calls A.I.M.: affirmation, inspiration, and motivation.” Beloved hits like “I Need a Dollar,” “The Man,” and “Wake Me Up,” with Avicii, may not fall under the same musical umbrella, but they are united by how they make the listener feel.

2023 marked the 10th anniversary of the global hit "Wake Me Up," an anthem of our generation, co-written and performed by Aloe Blacc. The track's collaboration with the late Avicii resulted in a groundbreaking fusion that broke EDM boundaries. In commemorating this milestone, Blacc remembers the power of music to unite and uplift, while also committing to a world where mental health is valued and supported

Happy Wednesday

10 years since the passing of tata Nelson Mandela aka Madiba.
I AM blessed to have met Madiba, had conversations with him and I committed to advancing the agenda for a better world for all.
The hug from his PA Zelda La Grange, his wife mama Mrs Graca Machel Mandela, Tembi Tambo, and my friend Jean Archary CFP® was special.
An afternoon in the company of amazing women.

This 21st lecture was a celebration in a room filled with mostly love and courageous activists. This year’s lecture was by the youngest Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, the dynamic, passionate, and fearless Malala Yousafzai.

Malala highlighted what it is to be human, and she raised awareness around gender apartheid. She took charge and asked for the format to be changed, she added more voices to the conversation. The CALL from the panel is to mobilise global action against gender apartheid starting in Afghanistan. It was horrific to hear the lives of the women in Afghanistan after the Taliban takeover.
Apply your mind to what you want to do to contribute to a just, kinder world for all. Madiba’s legacy - “The legacy lives on through you
Thank you Sello Moloko, Verne Harris and the Nelson Mandela Foundation

Link to the full lecture in the comments section.
The song RISE I commissioned for love and peace is also in the comment section.

It was an incredible day to remember and influence positive change in memory of our world icon Nelson Mandela, well done to the team!

to yourself and the people on your path.
Make the day count!
Love and light always!
