Her parents divorced when she was just three months old, and her early years were spent under the care of her grandparents.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24538\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24538\" style=\"width: 1093px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-24538\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4204.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1093\" height=\"1366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4204.jpg 1093w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4204-320x400.jpg 320w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4204-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4204-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4204-336x420.jpg 336w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4204-696x870.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4204-1068x1335.jpg 1068w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1093px) 100vw, 1093px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24538\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mamotebang Eva Segoe.

Living in a shared yard in Evaton, Mamotebang witnessed her grandmother caring for multiple families, including adults living with mental illness.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Everybody in our yard was allowed to just go to the garden and pick fruits or vegetables, just to make sure that everybody ate,&#8217; she says. &#8216;I think that\u2019s where my caring spirit came from.&#8217; While instability and conflict were present, love remained a constant thread.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;There was a lot of fighting\u2026 it was a mess, but again, there was love,&#8217; she shares. That combination of hardship and generosity helped shape her deep empathy for others and her desire to serve.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>A changing world<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Mamotebang\u2019s upbringing was marked by frequent moves. After her mother remarried, the family relocated to Carletonville, where she completed primary school. For high school, she moved to Soweto, attending Immaculata Secondary School.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24543\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24543\" style=\"width: 1040px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-24543\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M14.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1040\" height=\"1560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M14.jpg 1040w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M14-267x400.jpg 267w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M14-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M14-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M14-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M14-280x420.jpg 280w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M14-696x1044.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1040px) 100vw, 1040px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24543\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mamotebang Eva Segoe.

Throughout her career, one theme remained constant &#8211; working with and supporting people. &#8216;In everything that I\u2019ve done, I was always attracted to serving people,&#8217; she says. Her professional journey included roles in marketing, human resources and later within a church environment.<\/p>\n<p>Yet she often felt a pull toward new directions. &#8216;After three years, my body\u2019s like, I can\u2019t continue going there,&#8217; she explains. With time came clarity. &#8216;I\u2019m neurodivergent, my brain works differently. I get bored with repetitive things.&#8217; This realisation brought understanding and acceptance. &#8216;I\u2019ve made peace with it now,&#8217; she says.<\/p>\n<p>Today, she runs her own company, Unshackle Your Worth Pty where she offers coaching sessions, private counselling, and transformative retreats designed to help individuals rediscover their value and step into their full potential.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Becoming an author<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Mamotebang\u2019s journey into authorship began unexpectedly.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24540\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24540\" style=\"width: 1040px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-24540\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1040\" height=\"1560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M5.jpg 1040w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M5-267x400.jpg 267w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M5-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M5-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M5-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M5-280x420.jpg 280w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M5-696x1044.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1040px) 100vw, 1040px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24540\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mamotebang Eva Segoe.

After her recovery from Covid-19, she began writing, guided by what she describes as spiritual prompting. The process required perseverance.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I would have writer\u2019s block, I even thought of getting a ghostwriter,&#8217; she admits. When that option fell through, she continued on her own. &#8216;From that day, I sat down and I would write pages upon pages.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The result was Hope Carried Me Here, a deeply personal account of her life and the lessons she has learned along the way. Her motivation was not recognition, but encouragement. &#8216;Every time I get a message from someone reading the book, I just thank God,&#8217; she says. &#8216;Even if it was just for that person.&#8217;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Motherhood: Love, lessons and letting go<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Motherhood sits at the heart of Mamotebang\u2019s identity, a role that continues to evolve even as her four children have grown into adulthood. &#8216;I almost feel like I still carry them in my spirit,&#8217; she says, describing the enduring bond that shapes her daily life.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24532\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24532\" style=\"width: 1067px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-24532\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4123.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1067\" height=\"1334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4123.jpg 1067w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4123-320x400.jpg 320w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4123-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4123-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4123-336x420.jpg 336w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4123-696x870.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1067px) 100vw, 1067px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24532\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mamotebang Eva Segoe. Photo: Brendon Koeberg (BK Photography)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>At the same time, she has embraced the importance of allowing her children the freedom to grow. &#8216;You can\u2019t tell them anymore what to do,&#8217; she reflects, acknowledging the balance between guidance and independence. Her own childhood, marked by an absent mother, left emotional gaps she has spent a lifetime working to understand.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I grew up not knowing what a mother\u2019s love is, and I\u2019m learning now,&#8217; she shares. These experiences shaped her intentional and compassionate approach to parenting. She believes motherhood requires humility and perspective. &#8216;It\u2019s not about you; you were the passage that God used to bring this being into the world,&#8217; she says.<\/p>\n<p>Her journey has included significant challenges, including raising a son living with schizophrenia &#8211; an experience that tested her resilience, her marriage and her faith. Through it all, she found strength and perseverance. &#8216;It can only be God that helped me and that my marriage and family is still together,&#8217; she says. For Mamotebang, Mother\u2019s Day is less about gifts and more about reflection, gratitude and connection. Her encouragement to other mothers is simple but powerful: &#8216;Don\u2019t allow yourself to be swallowed by what the child is going through.<\/p>\n<p>There must be a balance between who you are called to be and being a mother.&#8217; Ultimately, motherhood for Mamotebang remains a lifelong journey of love, learning and letting go.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Purpose in action<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Today, Mamotebang channels her experiences into community work. After receiving training, she began running support groups for women, particularly mothers navigating difficult family situations. Meeting weekly in a shared community space, the group offers emotional support, practical activities and spiritual encouragement.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24541\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24541\" style=\"width: 1040px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-24541\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M10.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1040\" height=\"1560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M10.jpg 1040w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M10-267x400.jpg 267w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M10-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M10-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M10-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M10-280x420.jpg 280w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/M10-696x1044.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1040px) 100vw, 1040px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24541\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mamotebang Eva Segoe.

The group has adopted a local orphanage, organising annual Christmas celebrations funded through their own contributions.<\/p>\n<p>They also prioritise self-care, saving small amounts to enjoy outings together and strengthen their bonds. For Mamotebang, these efforts reflect her commitment to building hope and community.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>New chapters and lasting hope<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Mamotebang is already working on her second book, focusing on marriage and the realities often left unspoken. Drawing from her own experiences and those of others, she hopes to offer insight and encouragement to younger generations.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24537\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24537\" style=\"width: 992px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-24537\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4184.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"992\" height=\"1240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4184.jpg 992w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4184-320x400.jpg 320w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4184-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4184-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4184-336x420.jpg 336w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/joburg-south\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/05\/DSCF4184-696x870.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 992px) 100vw, 992px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24537\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mamotebang Eva Segoe.
