PONTSHO Manzi, aka Lady P, is beautiful, feminine and fabulous, and she wants to share her brilliance with all women.
In celebrating the good in women, Manzi has created an inspirational diary called Diary for Fabulous You. It will be launched on August 30.
She says the diary is for all females in South Africa and the world.
The idea started when her mother gave Manzi her first diary when she was 15, and relates the journey her life has taken since she wrote down her life plan and dreams.
"This inspirational diary encourages women to plan their lives, to dream of the infinite possibilities available in improving their lives, and articulates those dreams," she says.
The diary is intended to prove the power of spoken and written words in shaping one's life. She calls it a diajournal.
"I wanted it to inspire women and girls to be fabulous. It is a universally accepted truism that life happens by design and that the universe responds by conspiring with you to deliver to you that which you desire and work towards," Manzi says.
As a personal journey that she shares with the diary owner, the themes derive from her observations of the struggles of women that prevent them from living fabulous lives and in turn grooming generations of younger women following in their footsteps.
The diary concludes with Lady P's inspirational women - Mamphele Ramphele, Maya Angelou and Mother Teresa.
"These women have inspired me to achieve more and have left an indelible mark in my life. They have proven that women can change the world without losing their femininity and fabulousness," Manzi says.
About the diary she says: "This elegant diary is meant to be a keepsake and its value will be appreciated for many years.
The impact it will have in your life is only limited by your imagination and dreams. Settle for being fabulous and it will help you to achieve your dreams," Manzi says.
