It’s time for the content creators of Nelson Mandela Bay / Gqeberha / Port Elizabeth to get together! SA Mom Blogs is partnering with Lwando Joko Sipeliti to bring about an exciting event at Baywest Mall at Imagine That Selfie Museum where we will be having some practical content production. After everyone has snapped their selfies, we’ll go and sit down at CentreStage for some inside information from Lwando on content creation and planning.
Content Creation Gets an Update
I’m super excited to be part of this get together! After being involved in several #JoziMeetups (back in 2015-2019) (check the last one here) , it’s time to bring the old school blogging experience together with the modern influencing paradigm into a very exciting venue that screams content creation!
Imagine That Selfie Museum is the Content Creator’s Dream!
If you have not yet been to Imagine That Selfie Museum, you are missing out! This place has an amazing set of booths to make some awesome backgrounds for your content. You can check out my post here.
A Creator that Wants You To Shine and Grow
I’m also honoured to be organising this even with Lwando Joko Sipeliti. Lwando is someone who not only takes her content creation very seriously and has seen some amazing growth on both Instagram and YouTube, she also has invested her time with travelling to creator events in Joburg (the Africa Creator Fest).
The really special thing about her, however, is that she is dedicated to seeing you grow and shine just as you are.
I can’t resist quoting her:
“So many of us want to create, but we hold back because we think we need the perfect setup, a big following, or the ‘right moment.’
The truth? Confidence is built through consistency. You don’t wait to become the main character — you claim that role now.
Every time you show up, even when no one’s watching, you’re proving to yourself that your dreams are valid. You’re not just creating content — you’re documenting your growth, your story, your power.“
