In 2021, Masilakhe had the hopes of starting her honours studies, however, financial restrictions did not allow for that. Luckily, she got a job and managed to save enough to pay for her studies this year.

“I couldn’t study last year due to financial setbacks. Although I was fortunate enough to get a job during that time to help me save for school. I managed to save enough for the first few months. I’ve applied to numerous bursaries and currently waiting in prayer for a great outcome. I’m excited to say that I’m officially a BA (Honours) in Media Studies, full-time, student. Grateful to God for this opportunity."

Masilakhe has no doubt that this time next year she will be smashing more goals. Yes, babes, own it!
