The Golden Apple

We chat to Zitsile Maziya also known as Zie! She is a writer, marketer and sells designer clothes. She travels a lot yet she manages to remain a present mother to her 19 months old son. Power woman in the making!  As fierce and carefree as she is, her son has humbled her 😊.  She believes motherhood has taught her a lot especially when it comes to decision making. She no longer just thinks about herself but with every decision she makes, she thinks of her son too. * How does it feel to be celebrating your 2nd Mother's Day?  Celebrating Mother's Day for the second time feels so amazing.

A writer’s block as some calls it. Maybe laziness too. I stopped writing for this blog and life happened and days became weeks, weeks months. ‘Begin with The End in Mind’ A Wrecking Ball.Source: Google The quote continues to ring in my mind. I developed exciting content and I got writing again. This time around I had a plan, a concrete content plan. And I saved articles, then the unexpected happened. The damn laptop crushed. Like Miley Cyrus’s crashing ball crashed it! I was so heart-broken but optimistic, a new laptop came and I was armed with a terabyte external hard drive. Nothing was going to stop me at this point. ‘Begin With The End in Mind’ I started writing again and also recording videos [I wanted to join the vlogging world] and content for a 6 month YouTube c...
