LADY SKOLLIE ART AND DESIGNLady Skollie’s work, which has been displayed in both local and international galleries, tackles social and political issues ranging from gender roles to sexuality. She’s one of the youngest artists to have designed a R5 coin to commemorate 25 years of constitutional democracy. “My definition of a strong woman is someone who connects others, and understands the limitations of vulnerability and power. I hope my art makes women bolder in their quest to be themselves.”

PATIENCE STEVENS

MEDIA AND ADVERTISING

“The biggest lesson I learned when I was young is that you don’t get promoted based on hard work, focus, ambition and a good education alone. You need to be courageous, patient and willing to persevere. I learned to wait for recognition, remain positive, and continue to give every task 100% effort and concentration while trusting and believing that consistent effort would lay the foundations for future success. I’m grateful to the SABC for giving me my first job, after I completed my degree, for the intense training in television that I received, and for the programmes I’ve worked on that allow me to speak to viewers, understand what interests and entertains them, and to share positive messages of hope and inspiration with both men and women. My partnerships with Basetsana Kumalo and Bradley van den Berg are important. Knowing I have Bassie’s backing, encouragement and support, and Brad’s vision, energy and passion for greatness have been invaluable in my career.” PRODUCER AND ENTREPRENEUR
