DOZ Issue 55 May 2020 | Page 3

Editor’s Letter Dear Ladies, have shared the inspiring stories of hundreds of women. We seek to grow these platforms that have emerged from DOZ Magazine; hence it is time to lay the magazine, as you know it, to rest. This is your farewell issue. We hope you enjoy it. I would like to use this opportunity to thank DOZ Magazine readers and subscribers. Subscribers will be contacted in due course with regards to their pending subscriptions. Welcome to May. I am sure I have said this many times, but even at the risk of sounding like a broken record, I am going to say again that this is my favourite time of the year and my best month. There is something about May; May works for me. It always has. And I am even more excited about May 2020 because of specific changes that will be made to DOZ Network. One of such changes will be the dissolving of DOZ Magazine as you know it. I started DOZ Magazine in 2009 because I wanted a platform to tell my story. At some point, DOZ Magazine was separated into two magazines, DOZ Regular Magazine and DOZ True Story Magazine. Our readers loved them both. In 2015, DOZ True Story Magazine was renamed DOZ Chronicles and currently has four stories published under that brand of DOZ Magazine. DOZ Magazine, as you know it, exits DOZ Network at this point to make room for the growth and expansion of DOZ Chronicles. Also, since its relaunch in 2016, DOZ Magazine has evolved into different platforms which This is DOZ Issue 55, May 2020. Our DOZ That Inspire You is, Audreia Josephs. She is a life coach and motivational speaker who specialises in the “Art of Forgiveness,” and she shares with us her journey, which although filled with the pain of abuse, rejection, betrayal, shame and disappointment has turned out to be a fairytale with a happily ever after. As you read her interview, be inspired to rise from the ashes through forgiveness. Farewell. Thank you. Blessings. 3 DOZ Magazine | May 2020
