EVERYONE KNOWS THERE’S A PROBLEM. SO WHY ARE WE STILL WORKING LIKE THERE ISN’T ONE?

We know people are exhausted. We see the sick leave, hear the burnout conversations and watch good people disengage. We know people are answering emails after hours, and we hear "I'm tired" so often that it barely registers anymore.

And then Monday comes... and everybody carries on.

That's perhaps the most uncomfortable part. Burnout isn't always being ignored. Sometimes it's being accepted as the price of having a job.

On 29 September, we're challenging that.

Join Ayesha Malagas — Employee Wellness Professional, Registered Social Worker and Corporate Wellness Consultant for an honest conversation about what's happening to South Africa's workforce, what it's costing us and what needs to change.

Exhaustion should never have become this normal.

South Africans have become remarkably good at carrying on. We work through financial anxiety, rising living costs, long commutes, family responsibilities, unreliable infrastructure, understaffed teams and the constant pressure to do more with less. We call it resilience. We praise people for coping....

I am so excited to have this conversation with Ronald Abvajee

R160 BILLION. GONE.

Not because South Africans stopped working. Many are still showing up, answering emails, attending meetings and hitting deadlines. They're just doing it exhausted.
And that's where part of the real cost of burnout hides: presenteeism, reduced concentration, mistakes, disengagement, absence and people eventually leaving. So where exactly is all this money being lost, and what does it tell us about the state of South Africa's workforce?

Join Ayesha Malagas — Employee Wellness Professional, Registered Social Worker and Corporate Wellness Consultant as we unpack the numbers and the people behind them.

Who doesn't love being celebrated? 🎉🎉
Today, I'm wearing my red coat as a symbol of the woman I am becoming: bold, purposeful, and unapologetically me. 🥰

A huge shoutout to the incredible Professor Sabelile Tenza for making me feel seen, heard, and valued. You are more than a mentor and coach; you embody inspiration, presence, and womanhood. Thank you for walking alongside me on my journey to success. I celebrate you! 🙌🏾
