NOTE FROM TED: This talk only represents the speaker's personal spiritual views and understanding of energy, healing, and manifestation.

The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here: http://storage.ted.com/tedx/manuals/tedx_content_guidelines.pdfLebogang (Gabela) Makubetse takes us on a moving, humorous, and deeply spiritual journey—one that begins in the dust-filled streets of Soweto, winds through boardrooms around the world, and finds sacred stillness on ancestral land in Magaliesburg. As she trades suits for soil and frontals for forest walks, she reminds us that true success isn’t in accolades, but in alignment, healing, and remembrance.
Speaking directly to young people navigating identity, societal pressure, and inherited dreams, Lebogang urges the next generation to listen to the quiet call of their soul before it turns into a scream. She invites youth to break free from borrowed narratives and boldly craft a life rooted in their own purpose.
This is a story of land, legacy, and the powerful moment when your calling refuses to wait. Lebogang Makubetse is a corporate strategist, wellness visionary, and founder of Forest Lodge The Retreat, a holistic healing retreat nestled in Magaliesburg. With an MBA and over 12 years of experience in global pharmaceutical leadership, she has worked across Africa, Europe, and South America, most recently in Vaccine strategy. By day, she navigates the corporate space; by night, she listens to ancestral whispers and walks the path of the healer.
At Forest Lodge The Retreat, she blends modern wellness with African indigenous wisdom—offering cannabis therapies, ukufutha (traditional steaming rituals), ice-bath breathwork, river cleanses, and herbal healing rooted in sacred plant intelligence. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx Receive SMS online on sms24.me
