  • I have just realized that, there are so many issues that eat us up as women or as a people and from my experience of what I have gathered so far I realize that a lot of women want to be listened to, they want people to know how they feel especially when it comes to issues of delayed conception.
  • It was a very long, tiring, challenging and revealing journey, and once again, MAWU SOGBILISA changed the story to his glory. It has happened, on time, in time, in his time.
  • I am aware that lots of people are worried and some have been complaining on social media about the kind of roles I play. They feel my marriage will not last due to the bad girl role I play but I say that, they should not worry at all, my marriage is intact and will continue to be till thy kingdom come.
  • What people do not know is that, I don’t just get up and do things on my own. I have an incredible team I work with and my hubby is always in the know of whatever move we want to take. Sometimes, I discuss it with him first to get his opinion. My hubby is very understanding and we communicate a lot.
  • It is very challenging running your own production house and very capital intensive yet profit isn’t guaranteed. The passion for production keeps us going, as well as the hope for a better day, it is, however, not really lucrative.
  • Always being negative about the beautiful and fun union. Chill jor; it's not that serious! Live life! You deserve to be happy! Avoid those negative/clueless preachers. Listen to people with positive marriage results! It's not serious like that I beg! Don't lose yourself!
  • There are great people the world today who were born out outside wedlock and there are miserable people today who were born to parents who married virgins. Definitions, determinations and the future belong to God. It is an act of wisdom to desist from defining people based on what you see about them today.
  • I know I'm so blessed, in fact I'm a walking GRATITUDE list! But this 30's is beginning to get a little scary Let me share this with you: it's so easy to be lazy when you think you're young; a little over 10 years ago, I wouldn't feel a pinch of guilt if I slept 20 hrs a day, I was reluctant to taking advantage of all the hours in a day, I was so content when I should actually be up and cracking...the small positive results from my little efforts made me feel so cool, but these days I can't even sleep in; the moment I realise it's morning and I'm still in bed the way my heart skips is not funny at all, so if you're reading this in your twenties, this is a wake up call for you to be up and cracking...make a "hit" before 30, I guess you know what I mean and come thank me later with only 20%. Don't be discouraged if you're above 30 and feel like most goals haven't been met yet, I'm reminding you that at any given moment of the journey, you have the power to say: this is not how the story is suppose to end ! Cheers to life and more blessings.
  • Undoubtedly, my social media platforms have become a space for having uncomfortable yet relevant social conversations. Sharing my story on stillbirths and miscarriages was my own way of dealing with the suppressed trauma of having a child grow in me, and never getting to know them.
  • This was an open invitation for all women who had experienced the same or similar to share their experiences. It didn’t end there, the release of my debut book Silence Is Not Golden sealed it for people who have been following me to feel comfortable to share their stories.
  • I can’t really remember when it became a thing but for the longest time, I have always let people in on my personal life outside of what is in the press. I operate my social media as an extension of myself as a human first, and a digital journal when I want it to be.
  • I’ve been openly sharing stories about my childhood, coming of age, my family and parenting. Most people identified themselves with the stories I shared because they are honest and most could relate to the story because of our shared cultural experience as Ghanaians, Africans, or sometimes as humans.
  • I offer advice to the ones I can and direct the rest to the appropriate places they can get help. Most of the problems that come into my inbox are a ripple effect of society and our age-long culture of silence. There are so many stories I haven't addressed, and even more stories I can never share on my timeline no matter the level of anonymity employed.
  • I prayed for a time like this – to be in a position to help people. I cannot deny the role of these people in my life, their stories open my eyes to realities my privilege shields me from. It breaks my heart when I am not able to help some of them, but I am hopeful they’ll find help somewhere.
  • Simply put, it feels good. It feels good knowing people are living better than they were before they shared a problem, and I even sometimes forget my experiences with these people. Most of these people send me messages and leave me texts after years thanking me for helping them with their education, healthcare, family, or just sharing a post they find eye-opening.
  • It’s about time we created a safe space for young people to freely share whatever they are going through without judgement. Not everyone can openly start such an initiative with their social media platforms, also not everyone has numbers, but everyone has someone around them they can start these conversations with. It’s a very big task, but our immediate circle is a good small place to start. We need to constantly learn, unlearn, and relearn a lot of things we have come to accept as our culture.
  • Rome wasn’t built in a day, take advantage of the time between jobs and auditions to improve your skill, invest in your craft and don’t take shortcuts, believe in the process. It may take longer than imagined but with the right foundation, the building will be solid and lasting.
  • I have always wanted to make an impact and that is what has influenced me to be humble and simple towards my people despite who I am, I want to be an inspiration to the younger ones and that is why I am humble. I know to be make an impact I have to be friendly.
  • What I feel about criticisms, I believe in everything you do, you will need people to criticise you so you can pick the productive one to improve on your work.
  • It is an exciting feeling and it goes to say that prayers are answered, God gives us what we want at the right time and as the saying goes, He makes all things beautiful in His time.
