‘I share to normalise talking about those shameful, hurtful things we
keep hidden. I share because shame loses its power when we find safe
spaces to share our truth … and when women heal, generations heal.’
To her thousands of fans, Wisdom & Wellness founder, speaker and
influencer Mpoomy Ledwaba is a symbol of strength and women
empowerment. But going from university dropout to Forbes magazine’s
list of 30 Under 30 wasn’t always easy – it took a lot of courage and a
commitment to personal growth.
How Did We Get Here? is her coming-of-age story. Looking back on her
upbringing, major milestones and the challenges she’s faced, Mpoomy
takes us on her journey of self-discovery. Behind the Instagram likes
and thousands of YouTube subscribers is a bright girl who sometimes bit
off more than she could chew. This mother of two, who is married to an
award-winning musician, didn’t always have a plan and rarely fitted the
mould of ‘the good wife’.
In this frank account, Mpoomy writes openly about the hurt she’s
experienced, the mistakes she’s made and some of the hard truths she’s
had to learn about life, but also about how her faith has been a
guiding light. As a firm believer in the power of stories, she uses her
personal history to show how to live a purposeful life on all levels.
This book is an all-encompassing guide to everything Jan Braai
currently knows about braaing. It is a celebration of this wonderful
South African tradition, in which 15–20 million South Africans
participate each year on 24 September on National Braai Day. To
celebrate the 20th anniversary of this cultural event, Jan Braai has
put together more than 200 recipes that can be cooked over and enjoyed
alongside a wood fire.
Divided into 20 chapters, the book includes recipes for traditional
favourites such as classic potjies, steaks, burgers and ribs, to less
conventional dishes prepared on the braai, including pasta, pizza,
salads and desserts. Every dish is delectable and the accompanying
photography will have your mouth watering, and your family and friends
clamouring for a get-together around the braai fire while you put your
braai skills to the test. Jan Braai’s clear instructions and
no-nonsense attitude to the art of braai will ensure that even newbie
braaiers will easily pull off these recipes.
There is something for everyone in this book. Readily available
ingredients mean it’s a breeze to put the meals together, as most items
are probably on hand already, or can be sourced with minimal effort or
a quick trip to the supermarket.
Also available in Afrikaans, as
'Atmosvuur'.
After forty years of entertaining and mesmerizing audiences with his effervescent dancing and bubbly stage personality, veteran performer and producer Alistair Izobell was the consummate professional and showman. A household name from his performances as a nine-year-old boy in District Six the musical, to his cover version hit in 1993 - Venus. With theatre performances in Kat and the Kings, The Buddy Holly Story, The Doo Wha Boys, co-writing Remembering the Lux and more, life was amazing for this creative. Producing show after show, leaving audiences with lifelong memories. Introducing new talent to the industry, nurturing existing talent, writing theme songs for soap operas and a song for an international Grammy award winning group. The sky was the limit. But it was all smoke and mirrors. There was darkness behind the spotlight.
Alistair never knew he was suffering from depression and the walls were closing in. The patriarchal system that we as a society have become accustomed to had come to bear with a bit of karma, after a massive betrayal in his life, and the cards came crashing down.
On the 13th September 2023 Alistair Izobell tried to take his life. It was all too much for him to carry on. Having survived suicide, he now had to face every good, bad and ugly reality, every decision, the trauma, and results of a life handed over to show business at a young age. The road to recovery and healing has and will be a long one. But when you want to heal and find your smile and freedom, nothing can stop you.
Broken to Heal is born from the sessions of therapy and wanting to be better. A book of anecdotes inviting the reader into the life and world of this performer we forgot was a normal child, husband, father, and friend. This book is aimed to let those who enjoy the work of performers think a little deeper about the enormous naked emotional journey creatives go through for them to enjoy the beauty of their art. But to remember that there is a real human being behind the curtains with the same life challenges we all carry. It is also a hand of hope to someone out there suffering from depression, to remind them that all is not lost, and there is help and kindness that you have access to.
There is medical help that you have at your disposal and that you are never alone in your darkness. Someone is waiting for you to say I need help. And more than anything, YOU BELONG HERE!
‘I straighten her little tiara every morning – I lift her chin and
remind her that she is meant for greater things than playground
bullies.’
‘Everything shines in its own time. There is no timetable for life.
Timetables are for classrooms, not for people.’
These are just some of the wisdoms shared on The Village, South
Africa’s beloved Facebook group for parents raising tweens, teens and
young adults.
Having kids is a baffling endeavour beset with sulks, meltdowns,
anxiety and disappointment – and that’s just the parents! When you get
that call to the principal’s office? When the school acceptances don’t
come? When the bedroom door slams and you hear your child sobbing
behind it? All awful but the family years are also, to many of us, our
most precious time. The trick? To find a way to enjoy our families,
love our children and believe in them and ourselves despite the daily
challenges. And laugh . . .
In this book, Vanessa Raphaely and Karin Schimke have gathered together
experiences and insights from The Village members. These are the gems
and remedies from the real parenting experts – the parents – to help
you raise your family in your own perfectly imperfect way.

Reuben Riffel shares his secrets on how to get to flavour quicker...
without the fuss.
I think every chef has a dream of how they’d cook for people in an
ideal world… for me my dream scenario is definitely cooking with fire.
There's a happiness that goes with cooking on a fire, a freedom and
festive feel to it, that is what I love about it.
This book is about flavours first, the simplicity of cooking over fire.
It’s not about how to braai, the technical stuff… rather just to share
my enjoyment of cooking, and to encourage you to play and experiment
with cooking over fire. You don’t have to be an expert braaimaster and
slave over hot coals for hours. I like to see a fire as an extension of
the kitchen, using the same spices and flavourings that I enjoy cooking
with inside, but cooking over a fire for the extra flavour and a touch
of smoke.
The recipes in this book are the tried and tested ones that got the
thumbs up from friends and family, and range from incredibly simple to
more creative. You’ll find different meats and seafoods, loads of
vegetables and salads… and a good helping of quick and easy snacks to
keep everyone happy kuiering by the fire while you cook the main event.
Dive into the world of air frying with celebrity chef Herman Lensing
and discover why this versatile gadget is your new best friend in the
kitchen!
For his latest cookbook, Herman has selected his top 100 air fryer
recipes that will take your taste buds on an unforgettable adventure.
From mouthwatering breakfasts, sultry side dishes, succulent mains,
boujee baking and delectable desserts, his creative flair and culinary
genius shine through in every dish.
Starving for meals that are quick and easy to prepare? Look no further.
Whether you're a novice cook or a seasoned pro, this book is packed
with fun, flavour, and fabulousness.
Soos vinkel en koljander, dís Najma Abrahams (Tietie) en Azba Fanie
(Nanna). Dié twee TikTok-tuiskokke se hande staan vir niks verkeerd óf
stil nie, veral nie vir die kospotte nie. Hul resepte is hartskos –
niks fensie bestanddele nie, net geurige regte, egte huiskos met ’n
Kaaps-Maleise twist.
Groenboontjiebredie, tamatiekos, split pea-sop en selfs die vergete
sagobredie, blomkoolbredie, panfrikkadel, Nando’s-hoender, broodpoeding
en dhaltjies eerlik gemaak, sonder fieterjasies – dit is mos die
onopgesmukte huiskos waarna elkeen verlang. Die kerries is natuurlik
ook daar – suikerboon-, hoender-, dhal- en mincekerrie, breyani, noem
maar op. Snoek-in-die-oond, kerrievis en seekos-paella (times are
tough, ’n mens moet maar ’n paar maande of so spaar daarvoor, sę die
twee siezas) bring die see in jou kospotte. Vir “broke week” is daar
sakpas-randrekkers soos dhanya-soesys, eierkerrie en
spaghetti-en-sardyne. Tietie se peperminttert en lemon meringue is uit
’n ander węreld en Nanna se braised skaapnek sal enige onthaaltafel
laat kreun van smaakgenot. Mavrou, Tietie se lamsvleis-weergawe van dié
tradisionele gereg wat in die Kaaps-Maleise kultuur by troues voorgesit
word, is ’n tydlose treffer.
En moenie van die happies en lekkernye vergeet nie – dis nou die “soet
en sout” waarmee Mzansi se mense grootgeword en die lewe om elke hoek
en draai gevier het. Watertand-verleidings soos bollas, flapjacks,
skons, snowballs, patatkoekies, sweetcorn fritters en vele meer.
Samoesas en roti’s kry variasies in geure en kleure om van te droom.
(Só sę Tietie: Roti is baie versatile – eet dit met kerrie, masala
steak of selfs as ’n poeding. Dis tog te lekker met strawberries,
strawberry jam en cream.)
Nou ja, as jy nie so ’n tuiskombuis geken het nie, is jy waarskynlik
reeds daaraan voorgestel op Tietie en Nanna se kookprogram, Tietie en
Nanna kook op VIA, kanaal 147 op DStv, of in hul stories en kwinkslae
op Instagram en TikTok.
Met Tietie en Nanna se onfeilbare resepte, perfek beproef, kan elkeen
weer huiskos, soos ons ma’s, oumas en tantes dit gemaak het, in hul eie
kombuise opdis.

Hierdie boek is ’n universele gids oor alles wat Jan Braai tans oor
braai weet. Dit is ’n viering van hierdie wonderlike Suid-Afrikaanse
tradisie waaraan 15–20 miljoen Suid-Afrikaners elke jaar op 24
September op Nasionale Braaidag deelneem. Om hierdie kulturele
gebeurtenis se 20ste herdenking te vier het Jan Braai meer as 200
resepte bymekaargesit wat oor ’n houtvuur gaargemaak en daar langsaan
geniet kan word.
Die boek is in 20 hoofstukke verdeel en sluit resepte in vir
tradisionele gunstelinge soos klassieke potjies, steaks, burgers en
ribbetjies, tot minder konvensionele geregte wat op die braai voorberei
word, soos pasta, pizza, slaai en nagereg. Elke gereg is smaaklik en
die meegaande fotografie sal jou mond laat water en jou familie en
vriende geesdriftig op ’n samekoms langs die vuur laat aandring terwyl
jy jou braaivaardighede ten toon stel. Jan Braai se duidelike
instruksies en nugter houding teenoor die braaikuns sal verseker dat
selfs groentjiebraaiers hierdie resepte maklik baasraak.
Daar is iets vir almal in hierdie boek, en die maklik verkrygbare
bestanddele beteken dis verspot maklik om die maaltye saam te stel,
aangesien die meeste items waarskynlik reeds byderhand is, of met min
moeite of ’n vinnige rit na die supermark in die hande gekry kan word.
Ook beskikbaar in Engels, as
'Atmosfire'.
Food and memory are inextricably linked; flavours and dishes evoke
emotion, rooted in nostalgia or specific experiences. The Hungry Table
embodies this idea. For Fatima Saib, food exists as a backdrop to her
childhood memories, intertwined with her precious relationship with her
late father. Derived from this culinary inspiration, the book expertly
weaves story and memory through a journey of over 90 contemporary
recipes, most with a nod to the author’s South African-Indian heritage.
With this in mind, the book is divided into five chapters, each one
tapping into a feeling. The Basics offers an array of chutneys, sauces,
pickles and flavour-enhancers to round off any dish. Togetherness is an
ode to food that is best shared among friends and family, like hot
honey fried chicken and fragrantly layered biryanis. Comfort covers
those recipes that warm the body and soul from the inside out, like
dhal and rasmalai. From Fast, expect deliciously quick-and-easy dishes
like chilli crunch toasted cheese or yoghurt and cardamom potato curry.
And for those slower days, when time is best used to explore and enjoy,
look to Relaxed, for dishes like parathas, sticky BBQ lamb ribs or
creamy cabbage and corn bake.
The Hungry Table ignites the senses, telling a story of time and place,
reminding readers to slow down and enjoy food and the way it makes us
feel. It is an invitation into the kitchen, to enjoy the catharsis of
cooking and the dishes that result, and, perhaps most importantly, to
be nourished by the memories created in the process.

Ja, die ketodieet is al lankal bekend; jy het daarvan gehoor maar
verstaan die konsep nie heeltemal nie en dink dis te duur. Of miskien
het jy dit getoets maar is oorweldig deur ’n oorvloed dikwels
teenstrydige inligting en het jy moed opgegee. Miskien volg jy dit
noukeurig maar het jy nuwe inspirasie nodig. Daar kom in elk geval
altyd nuwe inligting na vore. Ná die wegholsukses van sy eerste boek
twee jaar gelede, Living the Ultimate Keto Lifestyle, het
Hendrik Marais besluit dis tyd om die ketogeniese leefstyl aan selfs
meer mense bekend te stel, terwyl hy aanhangers terselfdertyd ’n
vereenvoudigde uiteensetting van die jongste neigings en ’n volledige
stel maklike en smaaklike resepte wou bied.
Keto Lifestyle: Maklik is presies dit: ’n Gids vir die
implementering van ’n ketogeniese dieet en periodieke vas – met
maaltydplanne wat eenvoudig is om te volg – wat sinvol asook begroting-
en beurtkragvriendelik is, en met al die truuks om tyd te bespaar. Jy
sal mal wees oor die geurige resepte en selfs maniere vind om jou
vriende te onthaal met spyskaarte wat by hierdie leefstyl inpas. Maar
daar’s soveel meer: inligting oor voedingswaarde, en raad oor oefening
en maniere om jou motivering te handhaaf.
Patrick Watson is currently South Africa’s most innovative and versatile landscape architect. Known for designing extensive mega-sites, such as Sun City and an entire Indian Ocean Island, he is also the creator of exquisite small gardens in private homes and quiet spaces for reflection, such as the Apartheid Museum and the Garden of Hope at St George’s Anglican Church in Parktown, Johannesburg.
In all he does, he combines artistic intuition with extensive botanical knowledge and a deep concern for the conservation and restoration of nature. His projects are creative, fresh with inspiration, and often bold, and he uses plants, colours, landforms and space to create visual and emotional experiences.
Covering 23 gardens and landscapes, and richly supported by sensitive photography and some specially commissioned artworks, the book is a beautiful record of a remarkable local talent, a visionary whose art is informed by nature. It recognises and celebrates the combination of knowledge, skill and instinct that make up the man, and the radical influence he has had on his profession.
Yes, the keto diet has been around for a while; you’ve heard about it
but don’t fully understand the concept and think it’s too expensive. Or
perhaps you tried it but were overwhelmed with a deluge of often
conflicting information, so you gave up. Possibly, you are following it
faithfully but need new inspiration. Besides, there’s always new
information coming to the fore. Following on the runaway success of his
first book two years ago, Living the Ultimate Keto Lifestyle, Hendrik
Marais has decided that it’s time to introduce the ketogenic lifestyle
to even more people, while offering devotees a simplified breakdown of
the latest trends, and a completely new set of easy and delicious
recipes.
Keto Lifestyle: Simple is exactly that – a guide to implementing
a ketogenic diet with intermittent fasting – with meal plans that are
simple to follow – that makes sense, is both budget- and
loadshedding-friendly, and with all the tricks to save you time. You’ll
love the tasty recipes and even find ways to entertain your friends
with menus that fall within this lifestyle. But there is so much more:
nutritional information, advice on exercise and ways to maintain your
motivation.

Twenty-five years after the publication of his groundbreaking first
book, Malcolm Gladwell returns with a brand new volume that reframes
the lessons of The Tipping Point in a startling and revealing light
Why in the late 1980s and early '90s did Los Angeles become the bank
robbery capital of the world? What is the magic third and what does it
have to do with racial equity? What do big cats and clusters of teen
suicide have in common? These are just some of the questions Malcolm
Gladwell addresses in this new work, which revisits the phenomenon of
epidemics and examines when, how, and above all where ideas, viruses,
and trends spread.
Gladwell shows that - whether in neighbourhoods, schools, zoos, or
conference rooms - today's epidemics are no longer singular
occurrences, but turbocharged versions of their earlier counterparts.
Tipping points, he explains, play a much bigger role in our lives now
than ever before. With this provocative and fascinating new book, we
can meet them in novel and innovative ways.
So lyk ’n vrou, Ilse Verster se hartroerende verhaal oor Esli se lewe
van mishandeling deur ’n gewelddadige eggenoot, het lesers in 2022
geskok en aangegryp. ’n Vrou staan op is die vervolg op die
blitsverkoper en vertel van die nuwe hoofstuk in Esli se lewe.
Ná ’n uitmergelende egskeiding wat haar finansieel byna ruďneer, reis
Esli Kaap toe om perspektief te kry op ’n lewe waar sy nie meer ’n
slagoffer is nie. Dan gebeur daar ’n wonderwerk. Sy ontmoet iemand en
hulle besluit om te trou. Uiteindelik is die geluk, vrede en veiligheid
waarna sy haar lewe lank gehunker het, vir Esli beskore.
Máár haar stryd is nog lank nie verby nie. Post-traumatiese stres, ’n
vreemde omgewing en nuwe verhoudings bring onverwagse uitdagings. Ook
baie vrae, soos: Hoe kan ’n mens gelukkig wees, maar steeds huil? Die
ongekende blootstelling wat tydens boekbekendstellings, praatjies en
mediaonderhoude volg op die sukses van So lyk ’n vrou, maak dinge ook
nie makliker nie. Esli kan haar nie volledig losmaak van die verlede
nie, want almal stel moeilike vrae. Terselfdertyd moet sy ander
slagoffers van narsisme moed inpraat.
In ’n Vrou staan op deel die skrywer haar ervarings van die moets en
moenies in die proses na heelwording. Want om ’n oorwinnaar te wees,
verg ook moed, deursettingsvermoë en ’n sekure instink vir oplossings
wat wérk.
The bestselling author of Lost Connections and Stolen Focus takes a
revelatory look at the new drugs transforming weight loss as we know it
– sharing his personal experience on Ozempic and examining our ability
to heal society's dysfunctional relationship with food, weight and our
bodies.
In January 2023, Johann Hari started to inject himself once a week with
Ozempic, one of the new drugs that produces significant weight loss. He
wasn't alone – some predictions suggest that in a few years, one in
four of the British population will be taking these drugs. While around
80 per cent of diets fail, someone taking one of the new drugs is
likely to lose up to a quarter of their body weight in six months. To
the drugs' defenders, this is a moment of liberation from a condition
that massively increases your chances of diabetes, cancer and an early
death.
Still, Hari was wildly conflicted. Can these drugs really be as good as
they sound? Are they a magic solution – or a magical illusion? Finding
the answer to this high-stakes question led him on a journey from
Iceland to Minneapolis to Tokyo, and to interview the leading experts
in the world on these issues. He found that along with the drugs'
massive benefits come twelve significant potential risks. He also
learned that these drugs radically challenge what we think we know
about shame, willpower and healing.
These drugs are about to change our world, for better and for worse.
Everybody needs to understand how they work – scientifically,
emotionally and culturally. Magic Pill is an essential guide to the
revolution that has already begun – and which one leading expert argues
could be as transformative as the invention of the smartphone.
How can we reclaim the soul-deepening wildness that grounds us and energizes us when so much of the modern world seems designed to tame us?
In this thrilling memoir of a life spent exploring the most incredible places on Earth—from the Great African Seaforest to the crocodile lairs of the Okavango Delta—Craig Foster reveals how we can attend to the earthly beauty around us and deepen our love for all living things, whether we make our homes in the country, the city, or anywhere in between.
Foster explores his struggles to remain present to life when a disconnection from nature and the demands of his professional life begin to deaden his senses. And his own reliance on nature’s rejuvenating spiritual power is put to the test when catastrophe strikes close to home.
Foster’s lyrical, riveting Amphibious Soul draws on his decades of daily ocean dives, wisdom from Indigenous teachers, and leading-edge science.
