The Job I Took Just to Survive

Loading player...
In a country where unemployment remains one of our biggest challenges, many people know what it's like to take a job simply to make ends meet.

KZN shared honest and inspiring stories about the jobs they took to survive from roles that were never part of the plan to opportunities that unexpectedly opened new doors.

Along the way, Zisto shared her own experiences, including working as a receptionist and a brief stint in retail before discovering it wasn't for her.

This is a conversation about resilience, humility, sacrifice, and the reality that sometimes the job you need isn't the job you imagined.

A powerful reminder that every job has value, every season teaches something, and every journey starts somewhere.
