My strength comes from my identity as an African Australian migrant woman, my passion for storytelling, and a life rich in transformation. I’ve journeyed from a woman who once struggled to speak in front of five people to standing confidently before audiences of 800 and more—bold, unapologetic.

I’ve gone from hiding behind wigs and makeup, ashamed of my African identity, to walking proudly without masks. From enduring domestic abuse and feeling trapped in marriage, I now raise my children, run my own business, and pursue higher studies.
