Independent filmmaker Odette van Rensburg highlights the difficulties and rewards of making documentaries on taboo issues like suicide, suicide ideation and unexpected forms of domestic violence. Thought-provoking films like ‘Disconnected' and ‘A Shell of Herself' challenge us to look beyond others' masks, confront our own feelings, and establish stronger connections.

James 1:22We believe the church isn't a building—it's people. And when each of those people knows who they are and what they believe, they can achieve incredible things together. In our new series, We Are the Church, let's learn more about who we are and how we can work together to change the world.
In this episode, we dive into the role of PayInc. (formerly BankservAfrica) at the heart of South Africa's payments ecosystem. With 53 years of experience, PayInc. has been instrumental in building and maintaining the country's payment infrastructure. Today, it processes nearly 400 million transactions a month, ensuring that payments are secure, reliable, and always on.

Have you ever cared so deeply for everyone else that you forgot to care for yourself? In this episode of It's a Mindset, I sit down with Dr. Siew-Fang Law and Hannes van Rensburg, co-founders of Bento Box of Care, to explore what happens when giving and caring come at the expense of our own wellbeing. Siew-Fang brings over 25 years of experience in leadership, psychology, and coaching, helping leaders heal from burnout, trauma, and compassion fatigue. Hannes has nearly four decades of experience in safety, environment, and risk management, and together they've created Bento Box of Care to support people and organisations in building a true culture of care. For me, this conversation was such a reminder that women especially are often conditioned to keep pouring into others, until we're running on empty. It also opened my eyes to how much our bodies try to tell us about stress, burnout, and compassion fatigue, if only we stop long enough to listen. Key Episode Takeaways What compassion fatigue really looks like — and why it's more common than we think. How women are conditioned to care for others, often at the expense of themselves. The impact of unacknowledged “small traumas” and the lack of mental health support in many workplaces. Why listening to your body's symptoms matters when it comes to stress, burnout, and care. About the Guests Dr Siew-Fang Law is the CEO and co-founder of Bento Box of Care. She builds leadership models drawing on her professional training in social psychology and peace psychology, and over 25 years of leadership and governance experience in higher education and nonprofit sectors. She provides coaching, therapy and organisational training to help leaders heal from compassion fatigue, burnout and trauma as well as build a culture of care for the organisation. Her coaching approaches include Root-Cause Therapy, Trauma-Informed Coaching-Therapy, Mediation, Conflict Resolution, Diversity and Inclusion. Hannes van Rensburg has 37 years of experience in Health, Safety, Environment, Community, Risk Management, and Charity, caring for teams in various industries. He has worked for the Dow Chemical Company and BHP. In 2021, he founded JANSZ Leadership Excellence, co-create programs to develop authentic safety leaders. In 2024 Hannes co-found Bento Box of Care Pty Ltd with Dr. Siew-Fang Law to co-create a Culture of Care in organisations through the Power of Care.

My guest today is Nick Van Rensburg, he is a macro strategist with a particular interest in tail risks. He joined financial markets in 1996 at a bank trading equities and later equity derivatives. He spent 10 years at South Africa's first hedge fund where he started covering commodities, which exposed me to macro.

We explore the historical context of passive investing, its rapid growth, and the potential dangers it poses to market stability. Nick emphasizes the role of behavioral finance and the human element in investing, underscoring how passive strategies can contribute to market bubbles and crashes. We also discuss the need for active management and the potential consequences of a market dominated by passive strategies, including the fragility it introduces.
