Flashback to IWD2022 event where four of us shared stories about the women that inspired us.

09/03/2022

Yesterday, I was invited to speak at an event to talk about my shero as well as dress like her. This is in honor of the International Women’s Day 2022 - themed
This invitation was a soul searching experience for me because I had to unearth the woman that inspires me the most. It is very easy for most of us to think that our sheroes are the big names we see in the media and big screens but the truth is they barely know us- the true Sheroes are everyday women influencing lives in a very strong, passionate unique ways and most of them are unsung.
I eventually circled down my shero to my maternal grandmother who raised 6 kids by herself- and made sure all of them got an education. She experienced first hand bias against a patriarchal society that forebade women to own lands- no one at that time would sell a land to a woman. She did not only own a land, she built not one but 3 huge houses from her honest business and all of these buildings are still existing till today!
She contributed to her society by empowering other women to start a thriving business and encouraged them to be more than just a cook and cleaners in the house and by extension contributing to the economic growth of the society. She is my Shero as 35 years after her passing, her legacy lives on!
So who is your shero? Who is that woman that has inspired you and what do you both share in common. Please share in the comment section below?

According to an online survey, professionals that wind down their day by reading a great book tend to sleep better, eat more healthier and make more money.
So if you want any of these, you might want to consider reading a great book before you wind down for the day.
I always have She Is Enough from which I co-authored by my nightstand!
The reviews so far has been so encouraging! Some women that read it said, they could not drop it till they read all the stories of all women that contributed a chapter!

It is the D-Day to celebrate the first ever Black Excellence Day in British Columbia Canada!

Thanking all the great minds, institutions, companies supporting and acknowledging this laudable project we put together as we take Black History, Culture and People to the classrooms!

So glad that next generation of British Columbians and hopefully province-wide get to know about Black History first hand in schools! So exciting.

Black Excellence Day
Ninandotoo Anti-Racism Society

As a lead up to Black History Month, Black Excellence Day was created by the Ninandotoo Society. It is a day to rejoice Black history and learn about Black stories, Black art, Black people, and a day to stand in solidarity with Black Canadians. The term Black Excellence was born out of the civil rights movement in the 1960s.

Say Hello to Temi Omotola from our IT Department – she is one of the organizers of Black Excellence Day.

Temitayo hopes this day will educate people to build a more inclusive and diverse society that promotes standing in solidarity with Black Canadians and their struggle for civil rights.

This year over 20 School Districts have signed up to attend the virtual inaugural event which is being hosted by the Burnaby School District and can be streamed at the following link at 10AM today: https://lnkd.in/gyyUCd5c

Thankful for 2021!
I learnt lots of valuable lessons- top on the list is - we all have blind spots & true growth/maturity start with identifying them - then dealing with them.
Secondly, we were created with limitless capacities- the limits we experience are those we place on ourselves.
Thirdly, Being alive is a rare gift… Which has birth for me, a new respect for humanity…
So this is cheers to 2022! For New Friendships, Connections, Adventures, Goals, Opportunities, Reflections, and becoming a better version of ourselves!
Happy New Year fam!

Few days ago, I was on WAYS acronym for “What Are You Saying” on PlusTV Africa to discuss the role of Women in Ecomomy & Social Change- Check link in BIO to view the video online & let me know what you think?

Are women capable of holding key posts in private/public or developing sectors?
Should women even try? Or women truly belong to the back seat?
Can a woman have it all - balanced home/work/life or it is a mirage?
Is the society missing out or at a disadvantaged by not bringing women to the table while taking key decisions?
Do we need better women or better managers?
What really is the role of a woman in Economy & Social Change?
