Ladies and gentlemen, we're back with another Kamo special!!! For those of you still wondering who Kamo is? Kamo' man (see what we did there), it's been two episodes... Its okay we believe in third chances. SHE IS a UCT radio host, a familiar voice behind various UCT productions, but most importantly a friend of the podcast. The two previous episodes focused on her experiences with the various pillars of identity, namely family, religion, relationships, culture and society. In this episode we build on our discussion by introducing the question of how changing her environment has tested her identity. We uncover the parts of her identity that were unshaken despite the change, and also those that were tempted by the influences of peer pressure, as many of us find to be a common experience especially within the university setting. The relevance of the questions asked exceed their settings as many of us find ourselves having to face them at various stages of our lives given that environmental changes follow the seasons of our lives. We found this episode in particular to be deeply moving and hope you find it to be that way as well. As usual we are thankful for all the support and look forward to hearing your thoughtful feedback :) Instagram: @buff_babies_ @mynamedobeyoel @qp_buff_babies @kamo.maponya Tiktok: @buff_babies_

Ladies and gentlemen, part 2 is officially here!!! You guys have been asking and we've delivered. We are once again joined by a friend, a UCT radio host, and a familiar voice behind various UCT productions, she goes by Kamogelo Maponya. In the previous episode we had a in-depth discussion about the influence of family and religion on Kamo's identity. During the episode she highlights the education culture in her family, her evolution from being raised Christian to choosing Christ for herself, dealing with the stigma of coming from a divorced family, and so much more. In this episode, there's a shift in focus to the influence of relationships, culture and society. She opens up about the impact of surface level friendships in comparison to deep, meaningful ones. She touches on the societal implications of growing up as a girl, and her willingness to learn about her culture despite not growing up culturally rooted. Thanks for the wonderful feedback and support thus far, especially for the warm reception of the previous episode :) We sincerely apologize for the delay and we hope you enjoy this video.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is it!!! You guys have been asking and we've delivered. This episode is the first of its kind. Drum roll please... We have our very first guest!!!!! The wonderful Kamogelo Maponya. She joins us for a four part special episode where we discuss the various aspects of identity that we've been touching on in the previous episodes.

Welcome back to another episode in the Unveiling Identity series brought to you by the one-and-only buff babies. This is the final part of the final episode before we introduce our special guest. Often times our purpose is in no way unique, certainly not on a macro level. This realisation can be discouraging or empowering depending on how one chooses to look at it. This episode serves as a reminder that it is okay for our purpose to not be unique, because our contribution to it will always be unique. This episode also introduces the idea of our purpose being a reflection of our values and our values being a reflection or of who we are. We look forward to hearing your thoughts in the comment section, and appreciate your continued support :) Instagram: @buff_babies_ @mynamedobeyoel @qp_buff_babies Tiktok: @buff_babies_

Welcome back to another episode in the Unveiling Identity series brought to you by the one-and-only buff babies. This is the second part of the final episode before we introduce our guest. In part one we mentioned that purpose gives life direction, meaning and significance. However, we understand that everyone goes through a period in their life, where they are in pursuit of their journey. This searching stage can often be frustrating and hence this episode will discuss how one should approach this stage. It will also discuss the importance of understanding the difference between a macro purpose and a micro purpose. We look forward to hearing your thoughts in the comment section, and appreciate your continued support :) Instagram: @buff_babies_ @mynamedobeyoel @qp_buff_babies Tiktok: @buff_babies_

Welcome back to another episode in the Unveiling Identity series brought to you by the one-and-only buff babies. This is the first part of the final episode before we introduce our guest. In this part we introduce the idea of purpose. We reached the conclusion that progress without direction is merely movement and that purpose is what gives us direction, meaning and significance. We also realized that sacrifices are a non-negotiable in any journey without pursuing and that purpose is what makes the sacrifice worthwhile. We look forward to hearing your thoughts in the comment section, and appreciate your continued support :) Instagram: @buff_babies_ @mynamedobeyoel @qp_buff_babies Tiktok: @buff_babies_
