Empower yourself First!
It is imperative that you take the necessary steps to work on yourself and get to know yourself before embarking on the journey of building something. This is because, from our experience, we have come to see that the women and girls who do well in our mentorship and or any other programs have already done some self-evaluation, self-care, and refceltion. They are now ready to put in the work. This book will help support you on that journey of awareness and help you, like many women and girls across the globe become more confident.
