Since 2019, Are We Our Work has documented a series of conversations that unpack relationships to work, in a changing world of work.
We ask questions about how contexts, identities and emotions motivate people’s behaviours and decision-making.
The theme for season 2 is love and labour.
We engage with a range of practitioners in South Africa about love, work, relationships and the work of making relationships work.
It’s the finale of season 2. This week’s episode looks at the similarly unique relationship between a mother and a son.
Patience Murray and Tiisetso Daniel Murray reflect on the milestones, bookmarks and series of experiences that contextualise their dynamic. They also speak candidly about loss, sorrow, joy, freedom, and how these feelings affect their ability to hold love and memory.
Patience is a retired high school teacher. Tiisetso is an industrial engineer and software developer.
