AISHA NAKIDIEN,
Moshal Program Alumni Coordinator
Working with Woman and Finance and Mapalo Makhu has been a massive privilege and I wholeheartedly endorse Mapalo’s services especially given the financial challenges we all face today. What sets Mapalo apart is her knack for making complex financial concepts relatable and understandable, engaging participants in a way that fosters genuine understanding.
MALEBO MOLOI,

We would like to express our appreciation for the exceptional service and financial presentation you delivered to our graduates recently. Your ability to convey complex financial concepts in an accessible and engaging manner was truly impressive and has left a lasting impact to our graduates.

SALOME MOREMI,
Student
Woman and Finance has helped me to be vigilant about my savings and stick to my finance goals without falling off the wagon. Really thank you. I never really liked reading about finances before you as I thought it was complicated, but the way you simplify it on your blog it's easy to understand and you just want to learn more, keep the up the good work.
MOKGADI RAGANYA,
Student
The Money Bootcamp was an amazing experience for me as it gave me so much insight on how to manage my finances and also plan for the future. My outlook on money has changed so much that I have already setup my 'money date'. Being in the presence of strong, confident and money conscious women (not forgetting how gorgeous everyone looked) who are facing the same issues as I am was more than inspiring. So thank you for this great initiative to help other women like us who obviously needed that Bootcamp in order to get us well on our way to have a healthy relationship with our finances.
TEBOGO,
Reader
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who would like to reevaluate their money issues. This book is easy to read and understand. Because I've always been watching Mapalo Makhu on YouTube, I read this book in her voice and it felt like she was talking to me. If you ever want to learn how to budget, save, invest, tackle black tax... Then this book is for you
