Publisher s note inter has officially arrived and if the chilly weather s getting you down, we ve got plenty of heartwarming features to lift your spirits. There s an old saying: God couldn t be everywhere at the same time, so He gave us mothers. We agree and in our cover story (p24), DJ Zinhle and her daughter exemplify the bonds that keep offsprings linked to their moms not just through childhood, but throughout their lives. With Mother s Day on our radar this month, it s a timely reminder that we may rebel against our moms and spend years trying not to be like them, but when push comes to shove, it s our mothers we look for. Many readers will have discovered that even when we ve lost their presence on this earth, they remain an intrinsic part of our existence and simply take up residence inside us, rather than around us. As we get older, it s our mother s voices we hear, their mannerisms we find ourselves mimicking and their values that we realise were right all along. We also showcase a unique and fascinating audiovisual exhibition at the University of Johannesburg s FADA Gallery called Black Chronicles IV (p120), which interrogates the way black people have been depicted photographically throughout history. Tragically, those depictions were often internalised and believed by both the viewers and subjects of the images. It s a long overdue project which, through its visual evocations, has much to teach us about our past and, consequently, our present. The exhibition includes portraits of The African Choir, which toured Britain between 1891-1892, at the height of Victorian insularity. We also offer food for thought in our feature on SA s still insufficient percentage of women leaders in boardrooms (p106) and of course fabulous winter styles and products on our fashion and beauty pages. And if you re still seeking inspiration after all of that, our Beautiful & Powerful feature (p41) focuses on amazing female writers, who share their visions, values and voices with us. Have a great month! AS WE GET OLDER, IT S OUR MOTHER S VOICES WE HEAR, THEIR MANNERISMS WE FIND OURSELVES MIMICKING AND THEIR VALUES THAT WE REALISE WERE RIGHT ALL ALONG.

NEW
Editor s note e re turning an exciting new page this month (forgive the pun!) with the trial introduction of digital technology on our website, www.destinyconnect.com, which allows for practical and meaningful engagements with our readers. We re calling the project Dear Destiny and we re hoping it will strengthen the relationship we ve built with all of you since our launch almost 11 years ago. The platform, powered by American media company Hearken, invites you to direct our hand in the kind of journalism we produce, especially as it pertains to the advice-orientated pieces we love that hopefully help you achieve your personal objectives. So we ll be calling for your questions in the coming days and weeks keep an eye on our social media pages for these invitations. Whether your questions are about budgeting, business financing, styling or wellness, our team s standing by to help. It s a chance to be a fly on our newsroom wall, or a curious visitor to our busy (as well as loud and opinionated!) editorial meetings. The move is part of our effort to cater for our readers more effectively, covering the topics, people, places and trends you believe to be most interesting and beneficial. Further than that, we d like to be able to provide tailor-made research that dovetails with your passions and interests. Visit our website, look out for the Dear Destiny tab under our News category and let s get chatting. DESTINY s tried to consistently play the role of a pocket mentor. This is our chance to take that ambition up a notch. Please join us for the ride!
