Both Alison and Jabu have a deep commitment to do Legacy work, build entrepreneurship Education and tell the untold stories of hope and healing in South Africa. Alison has an interesting background as an entrepreneur. She was a political activist for almost 20 years in different shapes and forms, as a journalist and a trade unionist under COSATU. Alison was part of COSATU’s launching Congress in 1985 and worked directly under President Cyril Ramaphosa and many other remarkable leaders of that time.

What sets Alison apart is her vulnerable tone as a profound storyteller. She is known as a Soul Speaker. She believes it is her mission to use her voice as one of reconciliation, hope and healing at a seminal time in our country’s history.

Alison’s message: Own your story, live with grace, step into the power of who you were truly meant to be. That is how we heal some of the anguish in the world, one conversation at a time.
