Celebrating our female voice – Voices from the Free State

02 August 2021 | Story Dr Nitha Ramnath | Photo Supplied

In this special Women’s Month edition of the Voices from the Free State podcast series, we elevate and celebrate our female voices.

Likeleli Monyamane takes us through her journey as a student at the UFS. Founder of Inspire Innovation Business Consultants, Likeleli is a chartered accountant based in Lesotho, with a deep passion for skills development and mentorship.

A passion for evidence-based medicine and the notion of value in healthcare is what drives Dr Anchen Laubscher. Anchen is driven to ensure that healthcare is scientifically proven, of high quality, cost-effective, and tailored to a patient’s needs.

Karla’s story is one of determination, and her success is the result of two decades of hard work. Although netball is not a professional sport in South Africa and athletes don’t get paid for it – quitting was never an option for Karla Pretorius.

Enjoy these inspiring stories here as we celebrate our female voices from the Voices from the Free State podcast series.

Tanya Britz

Tanya Britz is relentlessly escalating the sports ladder. Tanya is part of the National Senior Hockey Team, SA U/21 women’s team and also vice-captain of the Free State U/21 team that won the inter provincial league.

Tanya made it into the Senior National Hockey Team after what she called a “miracle” day on the astro fields. During this day, she was nominated as:
• best player of the tournament,
• top goal scorer, and
• best goal of the tournament.
The team made it to the finals of the provincial league.

“Kovsies is family to me. It has been a great journey with the Kovsie Sport family, and I should say that being a Kovsie is a great feeling,” Tanya says.

“To my fellow Kovsies – never cease to dream, until your dreams become a reality.”
