As a young woman with various roles to fulfill, Judy can often be seen taking a break from the dance floor and on the decks, making others dance through her deejaying skills.

Many of her followers took to her comment section to motivate the young wife while commending her for the respect she has for her hustle. Netizens further rooted for how she continues to do this with the support of her husband, despite the public opinion of others.

For those who may not know, in the Xhosa culture it used to be a norm for a makoti to confirm to certain societal rules, with some set by the family. Those often included letting go of a life associated with outdoors, especially partying as the aim has always been seen as to build a home. Time passed and many couples chose to live their truths, doing what works for them regardless of what the societies deems as a norm and not. There are however some who still strongly believe and practice those societal rules strongly.
