Lerato Mvelase On How Her Calling Affected Her life. Actress, Musician, Businesswoman and now a Sangoma Lerato Mvelase has revealed details about how her calling which demanded her time back in 2015 obliging her to leave her family behind to answer it.
“It was very hard on my kids. I mean my kids sleep with me, even today. So for them to wake up and mommy isn’t there….It was very hard for my kids after six months of me being away but kids are very understanding actually. We don’t give them enough credit.” she said Speaking to DJ Fresh on Metro FM.
The actress added that her oldest daughter even struggled to sleep at night, and was only soothed once she had visited them and they saw she was at peace.
“My youngest was really struggling, my oldest one would not sleep because of what I was going through. She would kick and fight the whole night and tomorrow the poor child had to go to school. So I had to make her understand that it wasn’t just for me, but for them too.”
Speaking about experience when she first received “the call”, she told SAFM that most people think you’re crazy and that you’re an attention-seeker when going through the calling.
“It’s the people who are spiritually intact with themselves that need to understand you as a human being‚” she added.
She also revealed in an interview last year that she was a little shy to embrace the call at first because, as a christian, she thought that it was connected to dark magic.
“I also didn’t want it because of how it was introduced to me. It was always represented as dark and dirty and evil. So, I stayed far away from those things because, for me, it was not what I wanted. I wanted something beautiful. My energy must be clean.”
