Zindzi Goes to Paris

By Mrs M 

What started off as a simple Instagram post has turned into a pink-hued invitation to dream, to create, to curate. 

However for Zindzi Thwala, it will be more than just an entry into a competition. ‘Her brutal’ dream of having a seat at the pink table will go down as a declaration, a soft revolution wrapped in aesthetics and strategy. 

Zindzi Thwala isn’t just entering a competition, she's moving with intention, dressed in purpose, and walking hand-in-hand with possibility. 

Her willingness to take part in Brutal Fruit Spritzers #ThePinkTable challenge, which promises one deserving woman the ultimate Parisian getaway, is more than a bid for a vacation.

 It’s a moment for a movement, a masterclass in how one woman’s personal brand, when rooted in vision and conviction, can shift a culture.

Today, Zindzi posted a teaser on her instagram stories and the ripple effect has been stunning. Brands are queuing up like suitors at the palace gates.

 Decor companies, makeup artists, pastry chefs and Photographers are all raising their hands, offering their services.

Not out of obligation, but admiration because when Zindzi Thwala wins, we all feel like we’ve won. That’s the power of influence rooted in authenticity.

To know Zindzi is to understand what it means to build yourself into a brand not just through curated aesthetics, but through consistency, clarity, and care. 

She’s not a viral fluke but a strategy, soft power. She is the unshakable grace of someone who has done the work, both internally and publicly.

By day, Zindzi is the Country Manager for Liquid Logic Eswatini, a company that leads in beverages, refrigeration, air conditioning, and dispensing solutions. But if you follow her journey, you know she wears many hats with ease and elegance. 

She’s a content curator, creative director, and speaker. Her digital footprint is bold but never loud. Tasteful and considered. Everything about her says, ‘You belong’.

She also has a YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/@zindzithwala?si=cGzhnutH7FHt_5_u that has over a thousand subscribers. She counts this platform as a safe space where she gets to be her self, vulnerable, accountable and real all the while showcasing lifestyle vlogging, sit-down chats and digital creation amongst other things.

When she was chosen to represent Eswatini at the Forbes Women Africa Leading Women Summit, it wasn’t by luck it was alignment.

 Zindzi has long advocated for women to take up space and own their voices. In her world, femininity is a force. One doesn’t need to shrink to be celebrated. 

She has spoken, time and again, about the need for platforms that uplift, that tell the real stories, that create room for brilliance that doesn’t apologize for itself.

This is why the #ThePinkTable campaign feels like such a natural fit. It’s not just about pink cocktails and glamorous tablescapes though she’ll give you that, too. 

It’s about the table as a metaphor. Who gets invited, who gets to host,who gets to dream of Paris and know that it’s not too far.

Zindzi’s entry, though still unfolding, already speaks volumes. She isn’t scrambling or rushing. She’s building and curatingher vision to life in a way that honors both the brief and the woman she’s always been. 

The public’s response is proof they are not just watching but always rooting for Monwa's mom.

What might make her entry feel different is the integrity in the details. It’s not about doing it first, It’s about doing it right. 

That’s always been her way of thoughtful storytelling, strategic partnerships, and a deep respect for the people she brings along on the journey. 

The table she’s building isn’t just for show. It’s a seat for every girl who’s ever doubted whether she was enough.

In a world where many influencers chase trends, Zindzi moves like a woman who knows her value and who reminds other women of theirs. She collaborates without competing.

 She uplifts without lecturing, although sometimes she wears the ‘big sister hat, most of the time she works. Behind the scenes, in front of the camera and often, in the quiet moments we don’t see.

That’s what makes her worthy of not just a trip to Paris, but a standing ovation from the country she represents so effortlessly.

With many accolades under her belt including that of a mother, sister, entrepreneur that employs a good number of people she is also a girl's girl, a villager. 

Zindzi is a woman who wakes up every day and decides to show up as her highest self and in doing so, creates permission for others to do the same.

We see you, Zindzi. We celebrate whether your name is announced as the winner or not, you’ve already claimed something bigger: the respect, admiration, and loyalty of a nation.

Paris would be lucky to have you.
