Julia Anastasopoulos, the brilliant mind behind Suzelle DIY, Tali Babes, and Natalie, joins me on Good Things with Brent Lindeque.

We dive into her journey as an actor, writer, and creator, and explore how her characters have become part of South African culture.

If you love good stories, South African creativity, and a few laughs along the way, this is one conversation you don’t want to miss.
