Latest up from Spoken Label (Spoken Word / Poetry Podcast) features making her debut, the amazing Lesedi Letsoalo.
Lesedi Letsoalo is a 20-year-old South African writer, currently studying Accounting Sciences at the University of the Witwatersrand. My Grief - Booked is her first solo book and was written after her grandmother, who had been her primary caregiver/guardian since she was an infant, passed away very suddenly in 2021 due to COVID-19. The loss opened her eyes to how much stigma, shame and negativity surrounds the inevitable emotions that come with grief and loss, thus she not only wrote the book, but published it. She aims to raise more awareness to the impact of grief and loss on individuals, to educate society on how to be kinder to people going through it. Another goal of hers is to create a safe space for grievers to sit with and in their true and authentic emotions, however heavy they may be, and know that it's normal and okay to feel the way that they're feeling during whatever their time of their grief.Her debut full length collection "My Grief ~ Booked" can be found on Amazon.Her email address to contact for more details is lesediletsoalo02@gmail.com
