Q FOLLOWING MY PASSION
I’m a 25-year-old woman and I work for the government as an audiologist. But I’m tired of my job and would like to pursue my real passion: music.
I believe I’m a talented singer, especially gospel, but I don’t know how to get started. I don’t know what platforms there are in this field to become a successful musician like Ntokozo Mbambo.

A You should consider taking singing up as a hobby first. There are a lot of production stables that do gospel and if you surf the internet you’ll find all the details of the different companies.
The next step would be for you to get assistance to put a demo together that you can take to these companies, then see what happens from there. I hope you achieve your dreams and get a breakthrough.
Q HE’S A TWO-TIMER
I’m a 35-year-old lady and the guy I’m dating is 28. We got together in March last year and I love him very much. He didn’t tell me he had another girlfriend at first but now he says he loves her too.
I told him I don’t like isithembu somjolo and he’s consuming alcohol like he wants to die. He often comes home well after midnight. What should I do?
