Love Makes You Strong | A conversation with TAWVN & Timothy Maurice Webster

Get a sneak peek into who the super-talented, multi-disciplinary and multi-genre musician, The Artist With Various Names (TAWVN) is, why she is constantly breaking conventional norms, and how she always seems to get away with it.

For sure, there's a method to this madness.

TAWVN wants to instil pride within people whose identities have been ignored and almost erased in society.

Timothy Maurice Webster, a 4-time bestselling behavioural psychology author, interviews the envelope-pushing, groundbreaking artist TAWVN over a 4-part podcast series.

In this journey that we’re about to embark on, TAWVN and Timothy explore the deep interconnectedness that TAWVN has with her music, the soil, the Universe, the Earth, and the deepest parts of her Soul. We also learn how her Grandma’s Love, the Zulu philosophy of Ubuntu, and being a part of the Circle of Life have nurtured her ability to love, express, and connect.

The Zulu Kingdom's very own Grio in training and Africa's proudest Nerd is sharing her fountain of wisdom and knowledge…but most importantly her heart.
