Hi and welcome!

As an African woman living, striving and thriving in the 21st century, I am here to support you on your personal development journey. I work as an international consultant, training facilitator, enterprise educator and scholar-activist.

I am passionate about gender justice, youth entrepreneurship and the personal development, welfare and wellbeing of African girls and women.

My aim is to enlighten you on the invaluable opportunities, essential skills and useful knowledge that may interest you, and to highlight some real-life experiences of other women that we can all learn from.

Unclipped Wings

I invite you to watch this short video clip of Unclipped Wings, a graphic novella that tells the story of some challenges faced by female students in a Nigerian tertiary education institution. Can they be overcome? Are there any solutions? How did they deal with the issues?

In Our Own Voices

The title of my Blog is “In Our Own Voices”, an expression culled from my Ph.D. research thesis – and it serves to amplify the interesting ideas and different life experiences of *African women and girls, narrated or written in their own words.

The Blog is also a compendium of my own views on current affairs, updates on my work, and forays into past experiences.

Visit the Blog page and take your time to explore the stories and learn about our diverse worldviews. Some posts may challenge you, some may inspire you and some may resonate with you. Regardless, each “voice” is relevant and important.

Please don’t just read the posts. We would love it if you truly engaged with the contents and with us in the comments section.

*If this describes you, and you would like to contribute a blog post or share your story (either with your name and short bio or even anonymously), please get in touch with me here.
