At a certain point/age, you should know yourself very honestly & extensively. The point where there's almost no feedback (positive/negative) from someone else that you didn't know about yourself before.

IGNITE Empowerment Initiative Jay Shetty In a world where you can choose to be anything, just be kind Is not about what is said but how it is said is what matters

Behind every strong career is consistent preparation. Your journey is built in the unseen moments. Keep preparing, even when no one is watching. Your quiet work today becomes your opportunities tomorrow. #CareerGrowth #MotivationMonday #igniteyourfuture

It’s actually good to fail astronomically at least once in your life. It will humble you, shock your system, and strip away the illusion that everything must always go right. Once you’ve survived something that shakes you to your core, the fear around failing loses its power.

We’re back tomorrow at 6:30pm with another powerful session! This week, we dive into Financial Management with Peter Asare Nyarko, Executive Director of the Centre for Financial Literacy Education Africa. Stay tuned and stay ignited!

Growth hack: Pay attention to the things that make you hesitate... Those are your "fence borders"...and most people will stay in these fences their whole life. For you...get 2 of these, and push past these deliberately. Refuse to be your own cage.

Last lap. Fresh Energy. Renewed hope. In this final chapter of the year, we choose to celebrate growth we’ve made so far. The big wins, the quiet progress, and the courage to keep going. No matter where you are on your journey, remember: keep igniting your fire.

It was a humbling ex over the weekend to share my thoughts on Self-confidence with the IGNITE Empowerment Initiative ladies.
