my love metaphysics

My People, this is not a typical episode about 'Priorities' and how to get it right. It is 100% inspired by a call-out conversation with my aunt that had me reflecting a bit deeper on what on earth I was doing and what I planned on getting out of it. Also, just the real side of a tough conversation: was I even setting myself, my time, and my mind up for what was coming? It's an episode about priorities, but it's also an episode about whether we're choosing correctly, at the time. And maybe the goal isn't to get life right and down to a science. I just know time is precious and I want to be available to the beautiful, valuable and necessary parts of this life. Happy listening, send those VNs to the DMs and I'll see you in two weeks! God bless x

This episode is not just about money. In fact, it's not really about money. Happy listening, love you all and SEND THOSE VNs TO THE DMs!xoxo, Loyiso Lo'

"Makhulu" / "Grandmother": It is the direct term used for one's grandmother (my father's mother).Mine joined us on this week's episode and I could not be happier. For a long time, I've hoped to share her in this very specific way because her words, lessons and values have stuck with me throughout my life. After losing her husband, my grandfather, in 2005 - we still got to experience this resilient woman even in grief and independence. A special moment I will cherish forever is her traveling to Washington D.C for my Masters graduation. A love so deep, so dedicated, so consistent and I get to archive a conversation for myself, and for you.She shares a few of the top lessons she believes we should know right now. From discussing hypersensitive people, to anecdotes about growing up with an illiterate yet strong and wise mother- we really get into a lot of it in this conversation and more.Happy listening my people, and remember: SEND THOSE VNs TO THE DMs. Love from me and my Makhulu xx

My people, how are you doing? Update: I'm on 'vacation' again hahaha.I rarely ask you this question and it's simply because this weeks episode taps into the stillness that I have intentionally chased, leading me to the Eastern Cape province in South Africa. I have the privilege of visiting my grandmother here and the exploring my transition outside of my comfort zone. Away from the distractions, familiarity, sameness and straight into a quaint town that has been home to me my entire life. And into the arms of this tiny, strong and God-fearing woman. What a joy!This week, I invite you to take a beat and enjoy this episode during that morning run, workout, tea, chores, drive, and check in with yourself. It's a crazy time to be alive and this trip has allowed me to remember that that is not the entirety of my life. Craziness is not all there is during shifts and you are 1000% allowed to enjoy that truth.Happy listening and remember to send your VNs to the DMs! Love you all and God bless xoxo

Sometimes Be MeanThere's a version of protectiveness that doesn't get talked about enough. Not protecting yourself from other people. Protecting the things you care about from a world that will pick them apart if you let it.In this episode, I get into the moments that taught me this the hard way. The times I softened something that mattered because I didn't want to seem too intense, too sure, too much. And what it cost me when I did.Being mean, here, isn't about cruelty. It's about having a hard edge for the things that deserve protecting. Your work. Your peace. Your people. The parts of your life you're still building and don't need everyone's opinion on.So take a deep breath before you press play. This one might ask something of you. It asks you to figure out what you're actually willing to defend.Happy listening my People! Much love and speak to you in 2 weeks xoxo

Self-trust is such a huge theme lately and I got a chance to chat to my cousin Somelezo about it. This episode, I'm joined by my cousin for a real conversation about what actually builds self-trust: actually going through things, family ties, a solid community, and having someone who'll talk things through with you without judgment.We get into the relationships that help us heal. The most important being one with yourself. We talk about needing people to bounce ideas off when your own head gets loud. And we're honest about the battles that happen in our own minds, because half the time what's keeping us stuck isn't out there. It's the story we keep repeating to ourselves.This one's a reminder. You're allowed to need an out sometimes. A different angle on your own life. Someone safe to say the quiet part to. Permission to pause and go easier on yourself.Happy listening and have an amazing one My people!

What if the most radical thing you could do this week is simply let yourself be?In this episode of Flow with Lo', host Loyiso "Lo'" Mtshontshi sits with the practice of radical being — existing as you were made, without editing yourself for anyone's comfort. She talks candidly about the power of leaning into feeling instead of holding it at a distance, and some hard, honest truths about what it costs to live in opposition to your own nature.Lo' also opens up about relationships, tracing patterns of love all the way back to what we learned as young as childhood. And she offers a gentle but powerful reframe: when we watch someone simply be who they are, it isn't a verdict on us. It's just data. Not a reflection of our own worth, just information about them, and about what we need.This episode is an invitation. To feel more. To perform less. To be a little kinder to the person you already are.🎧 Listen now on Flow with Lo'.

What if love isn't something we choose — but something we're chosen by?In this episode of Flow with Lo', host Loyiso "Lo' sits with a question she didn't expect to be asking: what does it mean to actually embody love, not just feel it? Sparked by a recent read of Paulo Coelho and a season of life that's demanded more surrender than certainty, Lo' unpacks what she's calling the metaphysics of love — the idea that love isn't a soft, optional detour in our lives, but an involuntary current pulling us toward growth, toward evolution, toward something larger than the self we started out as.This isn't a conversation about romance as performance. It's about love as initiation — the kind that cracks you open on the way to becoming who you're meant to be. Lo' gets honest about her own unfolding: the exploration, the discomfort, the moments love asked more of her than she thought she had to give.If you've ever felt love rearrange you before you understood why — this episode meets you there.🎧 Tune in to Flow with Lo' and share your VNs to the DMs.

My People, my People —We're back with a new cadence, walking into July under one theme: let's try it differently.This episode traces a thread that runs all the way back to 2018 — my first year of uni, when I was, without even knowing it, at my most present. Most embracing of myself and the world around me. Lately, through different content, different perspectives, and just paying attention to what this season is asking of me, I've been finding my way back to that version of me.Leaning Into Me/You is about presence — being fully in what I am, fully with those around me, and figuring out what that coexistence actually looks like. It's about the freedom that shows up on the other side of a transformative mind, an open heart, and a little poetry. That's what I'm signing up for, for the rest of the year — held with intention, but never limited by it.So sit back, or take me on your run — either way, get in. We're flowing with Lo'.Happy listening, and love from me to you. 🤍
