“This is the day that the Lord has made and I shall be glad and rejoice in it!!!
I am 31 years of age today and I gave myself the best birthday gift which is this book. From One Mother to Another is officially here.
31 looks and feels like grace. It looks like growth. Like contentment. It looks like becoming the woman, the human, the wife and mother I prayed to be.
This year, I chose to honour my own story through the lens of motherhood. The messy days, the beautiful days, the becoming days. This book is my heart on pages, for every mama who has ever felt tired, unseen, guilty, proud, stretched and still showing up anyway. Thank you for walking this journey with me. From One Mother to Another Out Now!”
Ntando’s book launch brought together some familiar faces from South Africa’s entertainment industry, who came out to celebrate the actress and author.
