Author of the book When Hope Whispers and twice the survivor of Breast Cancer, Zoleka Mandela is an inspiration to many. From being a wonderful mother of four to loving every moment of being with her partner Mr Bashala, she can do no wrong in our eyes. We love how she’s real and open about her struggles too. If you’re looking to lose weight, follow her lead (she lost 17 kgs in time for her birthday in April earlier this year).
For some headwrap inspiration take a look at the seven times that Zoleka took her headwrap game to a whole new level.

You guys, thank you so much for all the birthday wishes yesterday! I have to thank my late daughter, Zenani … Had it not been for her tragic passing and at the hands of a drunk driver, I would have never gotten clean and sober. I’m also thankful for my son, Zwelami for believing in me and keeping me on a path of recovery, seven years later! To my late son, Zenawe and my daughter, Zanyiwe … Being your mother is one of the best things about me. ❤️ I have no idea why you have chosen me as your mother but it’s my highest honoured being a mother to you and your older sister and brother. To all my babies – Zenani, Zwelami, Zenawe, Zanyiwe, my twins (I’m hoping to conceive miraculously) and my 7 unborn children at the fertility clinic ? … Although I want to say that I’m sorry in advance for what you are yet to read in When Hope Whispers and the sequel, I’m not really sorry … What I am though, is unashamedly (already) proud of the children you are and the children I want to raise you all to be – I want you to embrace and live your truth, in acceptance of your real selves albeit fear, self doubt and judgement from others. You have so much to offer the world! ❤️ God, I’m ready for my twins now. Please? ? Okay … Thanks, bye! ? #37YrOldMotherOf4 #MakeUpByMrsBashala #MrsBashala #MwasiYaThierry #MakotiKaThierry #ProudCongoleseWife #WifeOfAnAfricanMan #AfricanPrintsBySarah #NtoZinhleAccessories
