She realized that having a strong support system, including reliable childcare, was the key to these women’s success.

In an interview with Kaya FM, Velelo explained her inspiration for the show: “I would see these glam women on social media living their best lives, and I would ask myself how they do it. They seemed to have it all together, and I didn’t, so that sparked my interest.”
