About Us
Growth Era Magazine is a South African online magazine created to spotlight people in their growth phase,before the awards, recognition, and success. We share honest stories about artists, business owners, leaders, and changemakers who are building their dreams one step at a time.
Our mission is to give a platform to people who are working hard, rising through challenges, and shaping the future in their own unique ways. From entertainment and lifestyle to business, events, and culture, Growth Era highlights voices that deserve to be heard.
We believe the growth era matters. It’s where lessons are learned, confidence is built, and purpose is found. That’s why we focus on the journey, not just the finish line.

Meet the Founder
Growth Era Magazine was founded by Matshidiso Matsane, a writer and communicator who saw a gap in how media tells stories. Instead of only focusing on success stories, she wanted to highlight the moments that come before,the setbacks, learning curves, and small wins.
Matshidiso started this platform to uplift young people, especially women, and to create a space where growth is celebrated. Her goal is to inspire readers, support upcoming talents, and show that every era of life has value
