Johannesburg, Friday, 21 August 2026 – As South Africa wraps up Women’s Month, S3 introduces the 8th season of Momentum – She Owns Her Success, which debut on Tuesday 25 August 2026 at 20:30.
Presented by media personalities Rorisang Thandekiso and Tracy Lange, Momentum – She Owns Her Success is Momentum’s flagship women’s platform created to celebrate women, amplify their experiences and support them in defining and pursuing success on their own terms.
Through research, practical resources, expert advice, conversations and experiences, the initiative helps women strengthen their financial knowledge, make informed financial decisions and confidently turn their personal and professional ambitions into action.
This three part series encourages South African women to move beyond simply dreaming about success and start defining it with a number.
Whether it’s the amount saved for a first home, the capital needed to launch a business, an investment portfolio, retirement savings, a personal best on the track, or the number of jobs created Momentum – She Owns Her Success believes success becomes more achievable when it is measurable.
Episode 1 – Tuesday, 25 August 2026
(The Baby Balance Sheet)
Before the baby names, the nursery and the first tiny outfit, there are conversations worth having about health, timing, money and the life you want to build. Rorisang Thandekiso, Dr Mpume Zenda, Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp and Anri Armer unpack the realities, choices and financial decisions that can help women step into parenthood with greater confidence. Because there may never be a perfect time or perfect number, but knowing your options gives you more choice over the journey.
Episode 2 – Wednesday, 26 August 2026
(Why do Successful Women Feel Underserved?)
What happens when your success grows, but the advice around you does not? Therèse Havenga and Hannah Sadiki unpack why successful women can still feel under-served, and why good financial advice needs to understand the whole woman: her ambitions, responsibilities, complexity and the life her money needs to enable. Because as her success evolves, her advice should evolve with her.
Episode 3 – Thursday, 27 August 2026
(Your Network vs Your Net Worth)
Your friends do not have to be on the same timeline as you. But they should make your world bigger. Johanna Makgalemele-Mukoki and Katie Mohamed explore how the people closest to us shape the way we think about money, opportunity, ambition and what feels possible. Because the best networks do not create pressure to keep up. They create access, courage and sometimes “a door or three.”
