Question Everything - Deangelo Goitseone Mogale - Theatre Trained Actor & Dancer #309

Send Us A Message or Ask Us A Question? DeAngelo on Spirituality, People-Pleasing, and Becoming a Triple-Threat Performer Host Savia Rocks opens season seven of the Us People Podcast with reflections on legacy, peeling away cultural conditioning and trauma, and using hardship to create something beautiful, then interviews South African performer DeAngelo, a theater actor, singer, and dancer. DeAngelo shares being raised in Northwest Mafikeng and later in Gauteng, guided by a spiritual great-grandmother and church life in the Zion Christian Church, and describes separating religion from spirituality after witnessing contradictions in practiced Christianity. He defines himself as ambitious, loving, and anxious, discusses therapy, childhood-rooted people-pleasing and lack of boundaries, and learning that professionalism doesn’t require being liked. He explains how his father pushed him toward passion, how he discovered singing through university productions and choirs with vocal training, and how judgment made him diminish himself; his life song is Sia’s “Bird Set Free.” He names best advice as choosing passion, living without regret, and being a vessel for others’ stories, recalls finding peace through a hymn, mentions losing a friend on New Year’s Eve, and shares where to find him: performing in the Zulu musical “Inala” at the House of St. Sisters, plus social handles @DeAngelo_RSA. 00:00 Legacy And Trauma 01:10 Meet DeAngelo 02:55 Growing Up In Church 05:17 Spirituality Over Religion 06:57 Family Lessons And Positivity 10:14 Mirror Identity And Purpose 13:02 People Pleasing And Boundaries 19:54 Owning Your Ambition 23:51 Why Performing Matters 26:17 Finding His Voice 30:48 Learning Leads Fast 31:56 Audition And Training 33:17 Triple Threat Identity 37:41 Life Without Judgment 41:25 Soundtrack Of Freedom 43:06 Desert Island Choices 48:36 Advice And Purpose 52:00 Finding Peace And Gratitude 57:27 Where To Find DeAngelo 59:08 Final Thanks And Outro 01:01:26 Closing Song Lyrics Instagram: @deangelo_rsa Tiktok: @deangelo_rsa Twitter: @deangelo_rsa Thank you so much DeAngelo for questioning everything you see and know about life - Savia Rocks Support the show
