This week on the podcast, Mpoomy is joined by Buli Makhubo, Architectural Technologist, Digital Creator, and host of the Refine podcast. Together, they dive into the honest, unspoken conversations women often avoid, from friendships and life seasons to personal growth and self-reflection.

Buli brings her signature blend of intention, versatility, and faith, sharing real-life lessons that are aspirational yet relatable. They explore what it really means to show up for friends, navigate societal pressures, maintain authenticity, and honor the sacredness of female bonds.

This episode is for women at any life stage, whether you’re nurturing friendships, navigating transitions, seeking personal growth, or simply craving deeper understanding and honest conversations. It creates space for reflection, clarity, and inspiration, because the conversations we don’t have can shape the relationships we treasure most.
