The show will shine a light on one of the most sacred rites of passage in Xhosa culture, where it will offer a fresh perspective on a tradition that has long been guided by men. Initiation remains a respected and significant cultural practice, and the role of mothers in preparing for, honouring, and celebrating this milestone continues to grow. Their involvement reflects love, pride, and a deep respect for heritage.

In each episode, the former BONA cover star will introduce a new zibazana, the mother of the initiate who is preparing for the life-changing moment. Viewers will be granted an opportunity to follow their journey from the early stages of planning through to the emotional send-off, gaining insight into the care, strength and resilience that define motherhood during this pivotal time.

The series showcases a diverse range of mothers. Some go all out to mark the occasion with elaborate celebrations, while others choose a more traditional and understated approach. Despite their different styles, they are united by a shared commitment to family, culture, and their sons’ futures.
