Life Updates: birthday, breakups, exams, mental health, journaling
Hey there👋 My original plan was to publish this on my birthday yesterday because it just made sense to. But I had challenges with wifi. Anyways, thank you for being here. I thought I should do a life update episode and talk about things that have happened this year. And yes, I turned my breakup into a story lol, that’s coz I normally don’t have things to talk about. Enjoy this one!!

I want a boyfriend?
Hey👋 This was so random. I can talk about boys and when I do all the time I have to include women. Listen and hear what I mean by that. Please, I’m scared that you’ll approach me and ask what I meant when I said… let’s not do that. I’m joking. Talk to me @candidpodcast on Instagram. Enjoy!

#3~ Working towards your future (high school edition)
What better way to know what to expect of your future than from a person who has gone through the same experiences as you are right now? On today's episode I interviewed former Dominican Convent High School student (prefect) Nyasha Bhuza currently awaiting to go to university this August. She shares her experience or journey from finding her passions career-wise and staying motivated. She shares tips on how she managed to stay motivated, confident and cancelling distractions. She's a role-model for those that know her from her YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOj93U4U3HZHoKHYPYZ0FNg being a content creator on studying, friendships and spirituality.
SEE YOU ON THE NEXT EPISODE!!
XOXO

#1~ The current rise in teenage pregnancy rates in Zimbabwe
On this episode we will explore the world of teenage pregnancy rates in Zimbabwe that were reported to have exponentially increased in January and February 2021 which took us by surprise. I invited Ruth Kamanga (former Dominican Convent High School Debate Captain) and Thubelihle Nkiwane (former junior Mayoress of Bulawayo) to comment on the likely factors that influenced this increase and what transpires before the actual sexual activity is committed, keeping in mind that teenagers mentioned are under the age of eighteen.
HOPE YOU HAVE FUN!
