From Good as Hell by Lizzo and Roar by Katy Perry to Man! I Feel Like A Woman! by Shania Twain and I’m That Girl by Beyoncé – there’s nothing quite like the energy of a woman who knows her inherent power. And no one embodies that better than Nomzamo Mbatha, the radiant face of our July/August 2025 cover, themed the ‘Confidence Issue’.
This edition is your all-in-one self-care boost: from goal-based home workouts and meal prep inspo to our Underwear Special, glow-up essentials and honest conversations about what it really means to back yourself from the inside out. We invite you to build your most confident self yet!
Your Best Self Starts With Self-Care…
…We were, once again, reminded of this lesson during the making of this edition – especially while spending time with our July/August 2025 cover star Nomzamo Mbatha. The actress, humanitarian and #ShakaiLembe executive producer opens up about a 2021 diagnosis that changed her eating habits and lifestyle choices for the better. Head over to page 24, in the latest issue, for a sneak peek into her wellness diary!
Your Easy Workout Era Is Here
Seriously, not everything has to be tough or intense to yield the best results. By now, you probably know that too much intensity can be just as dangerous as, say, skipping your workout sessions. Around here, we’re all about finding convenient ways to get the best out of our sweat sessions. And we’re here to vouch that there’s a way to have your body spring- and summer-ready just by hacking your training!
Underwear For All Occasions
Our editor scoured rows and rows of underwear to compile a guide filled with your best underthings – from performance-boosting sportswear to confidence-enhancing shapewear, alluring lingerie and the everyday essentials that truly deliver. Now it’s your turn to page through our first-ever ‘Underwear Special’ for unmatched support, comfort and style. Best start clearing space in your drawers because…after reading these pages, not even Cyril’s economy will stop us from going underwear shopping, girlies!
Gather Here Outdoor Lovers
After paging through this ‘everything-you-will-need’ outdoor guide, you’re bound to do one of two things – be inspired to go on your first bundu-bashing experience (because we’ve made it that inviting!) or take your outdoor experiences up a notch (we’ve taken the intimidation out of spending time in nature!). Whatever you decide, our ‘Adventure Guide’ pages are here to serve as a trustworthy companion!
