I’m proud to announce that this year, I’m launching the Make Education Fashionable Awards 2025, which come with R150,000 in prizes, to recognise graduates who are using their education to make an impact. Nominations are officially open and close on 10 November. Nominate yourself or someone you know deserves celebration. Click the link in bio for more info. At the end of the day, education remains the most reliable equaliser. Let’s keep proving that education is still the most fashionable thing there is❤️

@tibiniza Well Trump is a challenge to the west and that is what the world needs now

@FabAcademic eish, can we put trump in the same definition😂😂😂😂

Today someone told me that I have tendencies of a lunatic but I was not bothered at all! Happy to be regarded as a lunatic. The people we call “lunatics” are often the ones who change the world. Not because they are reckless but because they are not controlled by fear. They don’t ask, “What will people say?” They ask, “What is possible?” Every society needs them. The real danger is when we silence them. #Leadership #Innovation #Antifragile #ThinkDifferent

@tibiniza Elon, & Steve Jobs, but am not convinced about Trump.

@coverslanny Ungangifaki mina!

@FabAcademic 🤣🤣🤣 Malema played us,so we are still trying to connect the dots!

No one has an easy life. Even people with money have problems you probably wouldn’t want. My recipe for happiness is simple: Take care of yourself, Let your mind and heart be the source of your joy. Be a little crazy. Enjoy your small passions. And never look for a crutch to lean on. Life is too short to live too seriously.

@hephzebahB But of course, who would I be without God!

@FabAcademic Indeed Prof...and start that list by putting God first..hhayi u grand💃💝🔥🙏🏽

@khetavahle @Magatsheni90722 Go for it mntase!

@Magatsheni90722 @FabAcademic Money doesn't buy happiness but everyone wants to find out for themselves

Money buys options, not peace. Inner joy still has to come from inside.

@billsXchills Absolutely!

@FabAcademic Money buys options, not peace. Inner joy still has to come from inside.

@FabAcademic 🤣🤣🏃🏿‍♀️🏃🏿‍♀️🏃🏿‍♀️

Humans seek comfort, but growth lives in discomfort and that’s why I chase it. - I have summited Mount Kilimanjaro - Abseiled down Table Mountain - Went cage shark diving and I can’t even swim - I do lots of crazy scary stuff! - Sometimes I even stand under a cold shower just to feel the shock of it. Discomfort keeps me alert, curious and alive. If you want to grow, don’t just tolerate discomfort, seek it. #Antifragile #Growth #Adventure

@TumiK46521661 Hawu!

@FabAcademic Deputy Mother with white tendencies
