Mental health specialist Xavier Mulenga is back on That’s Lit and this time he’s talking about how to reduce anxiety during this pandemic.

I had a chance to speak with writer, producer and director Marc Radomsky once again about the Sydney South African Film Festival. This year, it’s gone virtual too. Marc spoke about some of the films in the festival, which kicks off on May 16. Check out our interview below:

My interview with Ella Mannix, the founder and owner of All About Fertility Expo! Ella shared what led her to create the Expo and explained what experts will be available to help people on their fertility journey! 

I had a great chat with Tyree Barnett and Tracina Williams, founders of Southern Soul. Their business provides vegan soul food – from mac and cheese to cornbread. Find out how they started their business here in Australia!

I had a lovely chat with Dr. Lemuria Carter, Head of School and Professor of the School of Information Systems and Technology Management at UNSW. Lemuria talked about the benefits (and reality) of doing a PhD. If you’ve ever considered getting one yourself, have a listen!

I had a wonderful chat with former Australian Idol contestant Tarisai Vushe! Tarisai talked about her time on Idol and her experience during The Lion King musical and Madiba the Musical.  Tarisai also shared her advice for anyone thinking of entering a TV singing competition. 

If you love travelling then this one’s for you! I interviewed Alyssa Derrick aka Global Gyal who has a travel blog and youtube channel that documents her travel experiences. We talked about her journey from the Caribbean to New Zealand and now here in Australia. Enjoy!

On this week’s episode of That’s Lit I spoke about mental health with Xavier Mulenga! We talked specifically about therapy – what kind of things you can expect and some of the misconceptions about it. If you’ve ever wondered what therapy is all about, have a listen!

My interview with the lovely actor Belinda Jombwe! Belinda and I talked about everything from diversity in the film industry to Meryl Streep movies to cinema snack combinations. Belinda also discussed her passion for charity work and the work being done by a charity she is a part of called Life Charity Focus Uganda. 

I had such a great chat with Ade Adeniyi, the founder of Little Lagos!! Little Lagos is a pop up restaurant that specialises in Nigerian food and on this episode we talked about some of the main dishes and ingredients that are a part of Nigerian cuisine. Be warned: it may leave you feeling hungry!
