How can small, everyday acts of generosity completely transform your life?

In a fast-paced world, when was the last time a complete stranger showed you unexpected kindness or when did you go out of your way to help someone else? 🤝✨ On this episode of Word on The Street on Afternoons with Zweli, Zweli reflects on a powerful TED Talk by Dr. Catherine Pearlman that explores the science and spirit of altruism. Dr. Pearlman shares her life-changing story of donating a kidney to a total stranger, sparking a deeper conversation about whether acts of generosity are purely unselfish or a two-way street that brings joy to both the giver and receiver. The conversation opens up to listeners across Joburg, who share moving stories of daily kindness from strangers stepping in to pay for groceries at checkout to helping change flat tyres on the side of the road. 💬 What is the kindest thing a stranger has ever done for you?
