Storytelling is a powerful way for one to share their life story, their passion, their desires, their hopes, their dreams, their strength & their liberation. African women, particularly, have experienced challenges "being heard" or having the opportunity, or platforms, to let their own voices be heard. Gone are the days when other people speak for the African woman, or write the story of her life for her. Sisters are now doing it for themselves! African women are taking the charge in all spheres of commerce, government, education, medicine, corporate industry, etc. They are making huge marks in society & even taking centre stage on global platforms, what with Kamala Harris elected as the very first female & African American Vice President of the United States of America! Our stories position us for great influence & we must never be ashamed or hide from the experiences & stories that have shaped who we are. We all bare scars that must empower us & not diminish or limit us. Africana Woman with Chulu Chansa is a storytelling platform designed to "smash the culture of silence on the things that hold us back or keep us stuck, to attract the life women truly desire & deserve."

What is personal branding? How do you ensure that you're representing yourself, & you're being represented by others, truthfully & you are showing up authentically, whether you're there or not. You are in control of how the world sees you & how they interpret who you are & what you do. In this episode, Gayle Edwards breaks down what it means to stand in the truth of who you are, & how this empowers you to be the person you were originally created to be. She helps people to "reintroduce themselves to themselves" as it were, coz the truth often is, a lot of people don't really know the depth of who they are, so they're not showing up honestly & impact-fully. Know how to brand yourself & why that is important.

Distractions come to get us to loose focus. The saying: "keep your eye on the ball" is so apt. Identifying the things that distract you is key to overcoming & being able to fulfill your call, accomplish your goals & fulfill your purpose & reach your destiny.

Sometimes our goals & destinations in life change because of circumstances & situations we encounter along our journey of life. So what do you do when life throws you a bunch of lemons: do you give up, give in or give out? No, you make lemonade! The people who succeed in life are those who are willing to face the challenges & carve out a different path & pivot in order to accomplish new goals & new dreams.

However, she pivoted & gained new success in a different field. Check her out.
