What inspired you to write this story and contribute to the book?

Women’s contributions to our society are often overlooked; this encouraged me to write a story of my journey to change that narrative. Thank you to my Godsister Zahra Spencer, Jo’Hanna Samuel, and Vanessa Farrell for inspiring me.

“Through my Chapter, I aim to inspire other women into political leadership and motivate them to write their own stories of their journey through life.”
