I'm so happy with my progress! 🙌 Working on those abs. 😜 My diet has completely changed but I've also been consistent with my workout. YOU CAN DO IT! 💪
I've got a PLANNER! 😍 Never used one like this before but I've been enjoying it and the me-time it has given me to get a little creative. 🎨 Thank you @arleneaugust for sharing your creativity with us. So talented!
New Podcast 🥂 featuring me only. 🤪 Is Motivation a Myth? To be honest, I had a rough start to the year. All those quotes that used to give me the "sugar rush" wasn't doing it anymore. If you feel like you are struggling to get this year started, hopefully this podcast will help you a little. 🤗 We will get there! We will get through it!
How do you get on the Forbes Africa 30 Under 30 list?
I've grown so much in 2020! I'm leaving this year a completely different person.
In 2020, I got to tick another destination off my bucket list.🌉
