What began as a small community gathering for author, international speaker, and award-winning businesswoman Amanda Dambuza’s Instagram Live followers, has blossomed into an iconic event for women seeking inspiration and connection. With over 500 attendees eagerly anticipated at the fifth edition this year, the Annual Vastly Sage Brunch has grown immensely since its humble beginnings. Remarkably, most tickets were already sold back in 2022, highlighting the buzz and anticipation that surrounds this yearly affair.
This year’s theme, “The Dream Life is Now”, resonates deeply with the collective experience of navigating the challenges of a post-pandemic life. Many of us found ourselves longing for more, whether pursuing a lifelong dream, starting a business, or finally taking that bucket-list trip. Now, in 2024, we explore what it means to live those dreams and to chase ambitions without hesitation. Amanda, the founder of Vastly Sage, reflects, “We often hold back, applauding others while neglecting our own dreams. But what if everything you’ve ever desired is already within reach?” It’s a powerful message that echoes the spirit of transformation so many women have embraced during these challenging times.
Of course, the Vastly Sage Brunch wouldn’t be complete without its array of influential partners, including YourLuxury Africa as a media partner. Continuing its strong relationship with long-time sponsors Veuve Clicquot and Telkom, this year also welcomes Telkom Business and its Futuremakers programme, with both initiatives offering vital support to female entrepreneurs. Guests will enjoy refreshments from KitchenAid Africa, which also generously raffles a R14 000 limited-edition mixer to support The Journey for Change Scholars for Girls. The non-profit focuses on tutoring and mentorship for young girls in Diepsloot, and KitchenAid’s contributions have made a tangible impact.
Held at the opulent Mercedes Benz Sandton showroom in the heart of Africa’s richest square mile – a fitting backdrop for the brunch’s fifth anniversary – there is an exciting new lifestyle corner this year, where luxury brands can engage directly with guests. This creates an intimate environment for personalised connections, something that many high-end brands find hard to facilitate on their own.
The brunch is not just about elegance and indulgence, though. It is designed to provide women with the tools and resources they need to excel in both their personal and professional lives. With a stellar line-up of speakers, including South Africa’s first female Auditor-General, Tsakani Maluleke, attendees can expect thought-provoking conversations about business, careers, and the balancing act of modern life. Each guest speaker brings a wealth of experience, ensuring that the event provides not only inspiration but also practical advice for women striving to live their dream lives in 2025 and beyond.
Through its strong network of sponsors and thought leaders, the 2024 Vastly Sage Brunch is poised to once again uplift and inspire. It’s not just an event – it’s a movement that empowers women to realise their potential and forge meaningful connections in an environment of elegance and camaraderie.
