Hello there!
I’d like to begin with a ‘Thank You!’ for subscribing to my newsletter. This is as much a new journey to you as it is for me but I’ll make this privilege of being in your inbox as exciting as it can be.
So, September 2024!
The start of a new journey for me.
If you’re here from my social media(Instagram or LinkedIn), then you already have a hint of what this new start is about.
If you aren’t, then here’s a short story.
For many years, I worked actively in media and communications across different industries in Nigeria until I got burnt out from the grind of working a 9 - 5 in the bustling Lagos city. Coincidentally, my burnout happened just before I got married so relocating to Abuja was a welcomed change. As it usually happens for most people, first comes a wedding, then comes the pregnancy. It was the same for me…nothing special. But all of these changes happening at once forced me to take a step back from actively pursuing a career. I had to learn to be a wife, and a mum, and stay healthy, sadly, my writing and career took a back seat…for a while.
Now, I’m ready to get back in the thick of things and propel my writing and career to new heights. My best idea for getting things off the ground is a writing challenge that I call my Write Pact - a promise to myself to write every day. I wrote more about the writing challenge on my website if you have a couple of minutes for an in-depth read.
I hope that you follow along on my journey and that this motivates you to pursue that thing that has been tugging at your heart. If you have any words of encouragement or tips that will be helpful to me on this journey, do drop me a note via email or social media. I would appreciate your support.
Until my next letter, remember that:

With Love,
