Anele Zondo Celebrates Sisterhood With First “Soft Power” Event Of The Year

Anele Zondo Celebrates Sisterhood With First “Soft Power” Event Of The Year. Soft Power Society opened its 2026 calendar with a heartfelt Valentine’s Day gathering that set the tone for a year rooted in intentional living, sisterhood, and self-expansion.

Founded by media personality and rapper Anele Zondo, widely known as Ney The Bae, the event welcomed a carefully curated circle of women into a space designed for depth rather than spectacle. What unfolded was not simply a social affair but a shared experience defined by vulnerability, grace, and quiet strength.

Reflecting on the day, Zondo captured the atmosphere in a moving message: “A room filled with intentional women, beautiful energy, meaningful conversations, and the softest yet most undeniable power.”

For her, the moment symbolised something far greater than a single event. It marked the emergence of a growing movement. “This is more than an event. It’s a community. Its alignment. It’s women choosing expansion,” she wrote. “And this is only the beginning…”

Built around the philosophy of #SoftPowerSociety and #SoftLifeRealPower, the gathering challenged traditional ideas of strength. It highlighted the power found in softness, the courage in vulnerability, and the resilience that flourishes when women support one another. In a world that often demands hardness, the room offered something different: a sanctuary for authentic connection.

The experience was elevated by collaborators who helped translate vision into reality. @nono_events transformed the venue with décor that created a dreamy, intentional ambience. @mazondofoodandbeverage curated a thoughtful culinary spread that complemented the mood of the day. Brand partners @baesics_essentials, @nyxcosmetics_sa, and @belaireza lent their support to the growing initiative, while @malondie_official ensured the host embodied the elegance and confidence that define the Soft Power ethos.

As the evening drew to a close, the feeling in the room lingered. Conversations sparked new ideas. Connections formed the foundations for future collaborations. The impact extended beyond the venue walls. The Valentine’s Day edition of Soft Power Society ZA signals the start of a promising year dedicated to empowerment, intentional community building, and redefining what real power looks like. If this first gathering is any indication, the movement is only just beginning.
