#AppreciationMonday: "I wish that our community would embrace each other more..."
Updated | By East Coast Radio
This astounding woman has some incredible advice for us all...
Carol Ofori had the immense honour of having former Miss South Africa, Kerishnie Naiker, in studio.
And what better opportunity to show appreciation than by celebrating her words of wisdom, inclusivity, and limitlessness.
She was obviously branded as the first Indian Miss South Africa, but in response to this, she shared such deep and meaningful words.
Words that mirror a world without segregation, but rather of sameness.
"I've got to say that I hate boxing people so I believe in our religion being that of love, I believe in our race being human, and I wish that we would start unboxing ourselves.- Kerishnie Naiker

Her words resonate with a world that we all envision for ourselves. And when she shared that she refuses to tick a box of race other than 'human' for her daughter, it was a true indicator that she practices what she believes in.
And far too often we forget that having beliefs are all well and good, but what's important is putting them into practice.

Kerishnie isn't just a super successful businesswoman, mother, entrepreneur, international speaker, health activist, and philanthropist, but also wonderfully friendly and so eloquent.
Carol expressed her love for Kerishnie's passion for people, women, and the human race as a whole.
So they touched on things such as her work with the community of Chatsworth, what she's doing in her hometown Durban, and more.
